The Luggage
- Away Carry-on Luggage; $225
This roll-aboard is sleek in appearance, yes, but it also has some clever details, like a compression pad that helps you pack more in and a built-in battery for charging USB devices on the go.
The Bag
- Cuyana Mini Tassel Bag; $150
During your urban getaway, you’re going to want a bag that’s compact, wears comfortably, and can transition from day to night. This pebbled-leather crossbody ticks all the boxes, and has a fun tassel detail to boot.
The Shoes
Possibly the most important thing you’ll pack for this trip? Cool kicks so you’ll be comfortable while you’re trekking around the city, but look good while doing it.
The Quick Refresh
In a city, there are a number of reasons you might need a little refresh (for example, subway handrails… need we say more?). These individually packaged hand wipes are made with essential oils and are naturally antibacterial and antiseptic.
The Backup Battery
Just trust us: You’re going to want to have an auxiliary phone charger on standby. Because having Google Maps turned on all day will have you at 1 percent in no time, and you know you’re going to want to do a lot of Instagramming.
The Weather-Ready Jacket
- The City Anorak; $88
An undeniable truth: Cities are unpredictable. This versatile, water-resistant hooded anorak will make sure you’re prepared—especially during transition months.
The Shades
- Warby Parker Nancy Sunglasses; from $95
Bring along sunnies that are as architectural and cool as the urban escape you’re visiting.
The Hydration
This ingenious, BPA-free water bottle—with its wide, flat rectangular shape—was designed to slip seamlessly into your bag. Meaning, you’re more likely to tote this low-profile bottle along with you and stay hydrated.
The Headphones
Chances are, you may want to do as the locals do and listen to some tunes while exploring the city. These wireless ear buds connect to your device via Bluetooth and have a five-hour battery life.
The Toothbrush
- Quip Electric Brush; $50
A travel-friendly electric toothbrush that’s lightweight, compact, and comes with a handy on-the-go protective sleeve. Bonus points for its cool, minimal design.
