After spending the past several weeks in New York and enjoying the holiday season, I’m about to start the craziest travel time of my year. I go home for a week each Christmas, and when I come back to New York I’ll be gearing up for another event at Sundance and then a possible trip to LA for work. In the month of January, I become an expert at packing.
That’s why I was SO excited when Lo & Sons offered to send a carry on bag for me to try in my travels in the next weeks! Not only are the bags super fashionable, but they keep all your belongings organized and safe = no digging for the necessities in airport security.

Lo & Sons has been kind enough to offer the winner the CHOICE of his/her own bag from loandsons.com. All you have to do to enter the giveaway is follow Lo & Sons on Twitter through the widget below. Extra points if you tweet about the contest or leave a comment about what you are sure to pack in your carry on bag.
What a great way to make your trip home for the holidays a little merrier! Good luck!

Couldn’t go anywhere without my iPad, chapstick and starbucks gold card!
Great bag! This would be a lovely holiday gift for me!
Rose water, a scarf, snacks and a good book are all I need to make it through a flight no matter how long or short
I would pack my MacBook, a spare change of clothes, my iPhone, and my journal
Some of my “must haves” for traveling consist of hand sanitizer, a travel sized body spray in Twilight Woods, Dramamine, my laptop, phone (we have separation issues) and a good book.
iPad, headphones, gossip & fashion mags, mascara, chapstick and snacks
I always pack my iPad, iPhone, a reliable charger, notepad, pen, reliable headphones, gum and a snack!

I would definitely carry my planner, notebook, chargers and laptop!
LOVE lo & sons! They have the most amazing bags. It is the perfect travel & gym bag! So much better than a duffle bag.
My MacBook is priority, it has my calendar, and all of my syllabi for my classes so I know exactly what needs to be done. Then my phone, the chargers, my physical planner, a notebook, my iPod, some headphones, either a book or my kindle…or both, and my makeup bag. I’m not a very light packer so i’m sure i’m leaving some stuff out.
How did I not know about this bag sooner? Perfect for a PR girl’s laptop, iPad, 100 different chargers, Kindle … I guess the list can really be endless.
how could i forget my camera!?
Must haves: lipstick, mascara, iPhone, headphones, phone charger and snacks!
This would be a wonderful bag for work. My must haves are a camera, tape measure, notebook, phone, lipstick, and snacks
I just got a Nexus 7 tablet and I have to have it everywhere I go. Plus magazines!
Carry on must haves include moisturizer, a big bottle of water and a book. (So I don’t have to turn it off when we take off.)
This bag would be perfect for a work trip or a vacation where I’m checking a bag. It fits my laptop, Nook, airplane essentials (contact solution, glasses, chapstick, lotion, etc.), and a change of clothes in case the checked bag gets lost (which has happened on more than occasion)!
It’s cute and stylish, too… much more so than the overloaded backpack I’ve had to carry in the past.
Carry on must haves: iPhone, iPhone charger, headphones, latest Glamour magazine, iPad, BabyLips, etc. The list really goes on & on. A PR girl doesn’t travel light (;
I always bring Aquaphor, a scarf, dry shampoo for a little de-planing volume, a copy of the WSJ I can fold up and tuck away (and won’t have a problem leaving behind if I forget it), and unscented moisturizer with extra SPF. Love Lo & Sons bags!
I’d carry my iPad, headphones, cellphone, chargers, chapstick, canon and sunglasses
OMG! This bag is beyond cute and necessary. This could be very useful for a PR college student, like me!

I always pack my phone, headphones, book, magazine, and chapstick!
water bottle, pashmina, book, headphones and a pair of ballet slippers or thick socks.
As an organized PR girl I keep spreadsheets for every destination so I don’t forget anything when I’m packing like a crazy person! If I’m flying my carry-on is always stocked with a quart-sized Ziploc bag for my cosmetics (hand sanitizer, lotion, chapstick, lip stain), my Kindle, iPhone, headphones, itineraries, and my wallet!
I always travel with my Macbook Pro, my iPad, my iPhone, a notepad (or 2!), my Kindle or a book, headphones, this week’s Economist, a couple of snacks, and always a Diet Coke!!
This is an absolute must-have! I always travel with my computer, a couple magazines, sweater, etc. and things always get lost in my bag. This is the perfect way to keep things organized.
I would have a pouch with my make up, my mac, a few magazines. my phone charger, moleskine! just about everything I can think of!
In my carry-on, I always have to have my phone and iPad, make up for touch ups if necessary, a scarf, and a good book or the latest magazines to read. I also always keep a note book and some pens in case I get a wave of inspiration that I have to jot down!
Love that bag!!
Oh the things I could put in there
How about my cat – lol
My travel bag essentials are my iPad, a water bottle/tumbler, a sudoku book and earphones for my iPhone/iPod.
