Low Tech Travel Gifts for Women
Top holiday travel gift ideas for women - no batteries needed!
Need to choose a classy present for a lady who loves luxury travel? Here's a selection of fine, upscale gifts that any woman would be happy to pack for her next trip.
Leisure travelers know that, when it's time to vacation, it's time to vacation in style. Be it weekends at a healthy day spa, flights to exotic locales, or extended holiday stays at luxury resorts, upscale travel means having your every desire met while feeling your best. Here are some high-end, classy travel gifts for women; your mother, grandmother, sister or daughter will look and feel great on their next trip.
Some high quality holiday travel gifts for women:
- Coach is one of my favorite upscale leather goods stores. Seriously, I always have at least one Coach pocketbook, and my Coach wallet is going on 10 years now. The quality of Coach products is remarkable. As a business travel gift for a high-powered professional, I'd recommend the durable Legacy Leather Flap Business Bag. It is as sturdy as they come, with an adjustable strap and several large pockets. It looks sleek and professional, yet timeless in its classic design.
- For leisure weekends away from home, I suggest the Coach Soho Braided Multi-Function Tote. Luxury travel bags usually beg to be noticed, but this Coach travel tote is more subdued and classy. The classic Coach insignia is the only giveaway, that this is the epitome of high-end totes. A great gift for the holidays!
- The Ladies' Travel Manicure and Cosmetic Set Ladies' Travel Manicure and Cosmetic Set is one I like, and it's great for do-it-yourself nail care. This is not okay for carry-on bag, because of the little nail scissors (probably the cuticle trimmer and tweezers would no longer pass muster either), but the questionable pieces can be packed separately, or pack the whole thing in your larger cargo-headed luggage. I like the leather travel case, which is sleek and attractive, and also easy to pack.
- The Aspinal Pink Travel Collection collects several of Aspinal of London's gorgeous handmade leather travel accessories together. This luxury travel collection includes 2 luggage tags, the Aspinal classic travel wallet, and their deluxe passport cover. I love the cotton candy pink passport cover, but they're available in tan, light blue, red and purple as well. I can't talk highly enough of Aspinal's artisan leather travel goods. Any lady will feel like part of the elite travel class with a gift of one of these upscale goodies.
- The book Gutsy Women: Travel Tips and Wisdom for the Road is a great resource for women who love to travel. I like it because it's funny, but it is first and foremost a useful travel guide, with sections like "Women's Health and Hygiene," and "Unwanted Advances." Written a decade ago, the travel book is still very topical . There's a follow-up, written in 2001, called (appropriately) Gutsy Women: More Travel Tips and Wisdom for the Road. I haven't read this second book, but I'm sure it is also filled with travel vignettes and relevant travel safety and budgeting tips.
- Spiegel, the upscale clothing company, has a sophisticated travel apparel collection. It's called 5 Days in 1 Great Bag, and essentially it's a suitcase with wheels, with what amounts to five different outfits. A blazer, two skirts, sweater, a shrug, tank, and wide-leg pants offer mix-and-match outfits to last a workweek. Packing must be a snap, with this high end and versatile package deal!
