As I prepare to go home for a quick visit (48 hours), I always have such a hard time packing, especially to go home. You need to bring the bras, keep the thongs at home, not wear too much black - you know… the normal things to keep your mother happy and not lead on that you worship Satin.

As always, I am over packing and this proves to be hard when only traveling with a carry-on. Yet, McQueen comes through once again and saves the day. Samsonite and McQueen teamed up a couple years ago to come out with Samsonite Black Label by Alexander McQueen. Not disappointing, the line was classic yet edgy. From white alligator skin to a black carry on that was modeled after a human skeleton with McQueen's own thumbprint on the zipper, I fell in love instantaneously.

I bought the skeleton carry on within hours of first seeing it - properly labeled Samsonite Black Label by Alexander McQueen Hero. It comes with a black and white zebra print luggage cover, a lock, and smaller bags for undergarments and such. This bag is huge. It fits so much, compared to the rectangle roll-on. I know this for a fact, since a traveling partner has the rectangle roll on and I have always ended up traveling with some of her clothes at the end of a trip.

In 2008, they stepped up the line and came out with silver versions of above. If you ever had a problem finding your bag, look no further.

This line is old news in the luggage world as it has been out for awhile but that means, the pieces are online and most of them are on sale…
