Meghan Markle has long inspired me, a fellow mom of two, whether she's advocating for children, offering elegant hosting tips, or sharing her radiant skincare choices . Most recently, she's influenced me to update my travelwear. Markle previously took to Instagram to show off her customized Longchamp Le Pliage Signature Travel Bag . The monogram "DS" was a reference to her Duchess of Sussex title. The chic and convenient tote caught my eye as a carry-on for flights, but it could also double as a carryall for daily mom duties. After all, she shares two kiddos, Archie and Lilibet, with husband, Prince Harry. Her cute monogrammed moment got me thinking about initial options for my own bag.
Longchamp bags are revered for being stylish and functional, and Markle's monogrammed option is no exception. Her exact bag is available from the brand for $380, but consider other splurge-worthy totes below, including a Longchamp raffia bag that's currently on sale .

With bold, contrasting lettering that pops against the neutral canvas, the Le Pliage Signature Travel Bag makes a serious fashion statement in transit. The recycled polyester tote has a top zipper and snap closure that keep belongings totally secure, plus one interior pocket you can tuck your phone into. With long handles, it can be worn over the shoulder, held, or wrapped around a suitcase like Markle's. It's roomy yet lightweight, so it also makes a great workbag for storing a small laptop, whether you're in the office or boarding the plane for a work trip.
Markle's go-to bag is available from Longchamp for $380 , but I also rounded up similar tote bags that are equally luxe and practical. Peruse the travel-friendly carryall bags, below.
