Deceivingly roomy, this oversized bucket bag is Barber's favorite bag from Cuyana's collection. Although it was an immediate "yes" the second she saw how the bag's design flawlessly achieved the ideal combination of fashion-forward and practical, she felt 100 percent confident in it as a travel essential after toting it around New York City for months, stuffing it to the brim with everything from pouches to computers to extra sets of clothing, without shoulder pain or damage to the bag. Invest in this if you want a trusty personal item that can also complete all of your honeymoon outfits.

Sleek, simple, and perfect as a carry-on for the overhead bin, Cuyana's Weekender Bag is an essential for both you and your spouse on your upcoming honeymoon. This zippered bag looks ultra-elevated on the outside, yet possesses the same ample space and organized interior pockets (including one for a laptop) as your favorite duffle. It comes in black and brown leather, or you can opt for a recycled knit material if you'd like to spend a bit less.
