It’s hard to find the perfect travel kit bag – but we reckon this is it, from Caroline Gardner whose lovely store on Marylebone High Street is a stylish Aladdin’s cave of gifts and accessories and always, ALWAYS the perfect card for someone…

Here’s what we love about this bag…

…It’s wipeable, inside and out, which means the black-and-white striped interior is easy to keep clean, unike many kit bags which have a fabric interior that gets grubbier over time.

…It’s really roomy, with two zip pockets – you could fit enough for a fortnight away in here, probably haircare and all, and we’re enjoying the ‘ribbon’ pulls on the zips, too.

…The bag is absolutely featherlight (always important when you’re trying to stay within a strict flight weight limit).

…It’s covered in dots. And who doesn’t love a dot?

Do also check out their other spotted items in the same range (including the smaller make-up bag, here) – practical and pretty, and lots to go dotty about generally.
