One of my girlfriends 'commutes' between London and San Francisco every other month shared her latest travel splurge with me: the Samsonite Black Label Spinner Upright and the matching Samsonite Black Label Duffel Bag. She started with an apologetic "this is the most extravagant purchase I've made in years, but I just love it... the colors, the style, and it's Samsonite too." Doesn't she know that there is no need for justification in my book when it comes to buying practical yet stylish things, whether it be clothes, jeans, purses or accessories? And it doesn't hurt that this line of luggage is extremely durable and resistant, too. She got the Spinner Upright and the matching Duffel Bag in pink/red, which is super adorable and a nice change from typical, hard-to-identify black luggage we see everywhere. This way, she can easily recognize them on the baggage carousel right away. Now that's smart!
I wish I had known about the Samsonite black label luggage line before I invested in my equally expensive, black suitcase. I would have probably picked the brown and beige color – a nice neutral color – to match my Louis carry-on...
