Happy Weekend luvs! I won’t lie, I love to travel. Before I was expecting, I would travel 4-5x a year not including the dozen trips I would make to Seattle for work. I would get a lot of questions ranging from what my travel essentials were to how I would pack. With all these questions I have been asked, I thought what better way to share than wrap it up with a giveaway!

2601

Before I talk about the giveaway, let’s first consider two major pitfalls in travelling.  They are both focused around the suitcase. With flight regulations constantly changing regarding how much weight one can carry, I am always struggling to find a suitcase that is light and allows me the luxury to pack everything I need for my trip. Another pitfall I encounter during my travels is finding which suitcase out of all the ones that travel down the conveyor belt is mine….especially when everyone owns a black suitcase.2602

I have had two incidents in the past where someone took my suitcase accidentally and called me to swap after they opened it and noticed that the contents didn’t belong to them. Can you imagine being trapped in a hotel, wearing the same clothes you traveled in and trying to arrange a time to meet up with the person who picked up your suitcase? Imagine the feeling when the second it happened to me, I had to wait for 2 days to get my suitcase?

Realizing that you may have reckless travelers to deal with, I got my hands on this gorgeous faux marble finish suitcase set (Bianco) from Heys which was perfect during my last trip to California. 2603

The whole set was incredibly light, easy to maneuver (especially when I had to run to my connecting flight), and incredibly easy to spot when on the conveyor belt during luggage pickup. Plus, let’s not forget that the design was so incredibly eye catching that I had numerous women approach me and ask me where I got my suitcase from.

Because I am now over 31 weeks pregnant with twins, I have been put on a lock-down for travelling – which is great because now all my loved ones are going to come here to spend the holidays with me. But, I bet a lot of you have plans to visit your family for the holidays.2604

Heys and I have partnered up to give 1 lucky winner a carry-on of their choice (I suggest the Bianco, it’s my favorite print and it’s their top seller!) that they can use during the holidays and for all of their future travels. The carry-on abides by all airline regulations and is incredibly light and expandable (so perfect to fit all of your precious gifts for your family and relatives) and it has a TSA lock. The killer deal for me are the 360° spinner wheels which make it easy to navigate around the airport and run!

To enter this giveaway, all you have to do is comment below as to why you need this carry on and head on over to my Instagram account for more details. Also, don’t forget to sign-up for all of my other giveaways! Good Luck!

    The same thing has happened to me! My suitcase has been taken. I travel all the time for work and vacation and I love love love anything marble!!! This suitcase would be a wonderful addition to my travels. Thank you for the opportunity!!!

    Would love to win these! I’ve been wanting Heys luggage for a while. Not only are these gorgeous (marble everything please!), but I’m actually so IN NEED of new luggage. I actually don’t own any luggage of my own! When I lived at home, I would always borrow my parents’ suitcases. Ever since I bought my place (over 3 years ago), I’ve still never purchased any. Whenever I’ve traveled since moving out, I’ve had to borrow from my family and sometimes even from my fiancé’s family! *fingers crossed*

I have been traveling like crazy and am in desperate need of new luggage anyway, I was going to ask for some for Christmas. This would be perfect for my upcoming trip to NYC.

    I need a new carry-on because I always seem to have extra shopping to pack in my bags after any trip I go on! Also, my luggage set is 12 years old and super heavy so I need something easy when I travel with my kids.

I believe heys does the best travels bags and I used to own one (my very first one) until I lost it on a aircraft I still haven’t got over losing that bag it had all my favourite make up and all my favourite outfits in that bag.

I also want to let you know I have been reading all your blogs and you honestly inspire me to do my own blogs and I think you are absolutely beautiful. You should check out my Instagram aaamena

    My husband is constantly bugging me about how small my carry-on suitcase is. I tend to ask him to stuff a pair of my shoes or sweater into his bag because I fill mine up. Drives him crazy and this giveaway win would help both of us when we travel. 🙂

    I am going to be traveling a lot to Massachusetts (I’m from Louisiana) because I’m in a long distance relationship. This would help greatly since I’m needing new luggage and carry-ons are the best and so useful/helpful.

    These suitcases look so nice! The zipper is broken on my suitcase so I really need a new one! I’d love to have some beautiful new heys luggage to bring on my next journey.

    OMG! These are absolutely perfect! I’ve heard and read so many good things about Heys luggage. Next year I plan on upping my traveling and I will be going to South Africa and Lake Louise, Alberta. I would love to push these around the airport and all over the world. The carryon that I have now is about 11 years old and its time to put it into retirement! 🙂 Happy Holidays everyone!

    I have an upcoming trip to Korea (and maybe Japan) next year. This is the first time I’ll be travelling totally alone, and my only luggage is from when I was a kid. It would be nice to have my own set of luggage now as a 26 year old. I was just laid off work, and my dad recently passed, so money is extra tight, so the upcoming trip is exciting but worrisome financially.
    Thanks for much for the giveaway oppourtunity, and congrats on getting to 31 weeks! All the best to you and the baby 🙂

    I would love a new suitcase set. I’ve been using hand me downs forever. I have been traveling a lot more in the past several years and it would help me immensely to find a suitcase that will fit my needs. I am an overpacker by nature and struggle to find something that fits everything that I need and is easy to spot.

  27. December 6, 2016 / 7:49 pm

    I love your blog and would love this carry on to take on a trip to Houston when I visit my sister in January who is expecting!

    I have never owned a new piece of luggage I bought second hand soft sided bags in the eighties and my last trip I borrowed my friends old bags. I would love a new set of luggage!

    I would love to win this luggage because I had a big suitcase but the zipper broke and the fabric ripped. It would be so nice to have this because I love the marble look and I lovvee it! Thanks for the opportunity!

  32. December 8, 2016 / 2:27 pm

    This happened to me recently and I was thankfully able to spot them before they left the airport, but it’s making me rethink my basic black luggage! Love this marble print, it’s definitely a stand out.

    My black carry-on got white paint accidentally dropped on it. It now has a bit of a marble look to it. A Heys carry-on with an intentional marble design would be much better.

    I need this carry on as I don’t have one! Love the white marble look, and I love Heys

    I would absolutely love this suitcase because Mama can have a pretty case while also pulling a Thomas the train suitcase too, right?

    I don’t have a carry-on and my suitcase broke during my recent trip to Spain. I had to lug my 100000 pd suitcase up a long, steep cobblestone road to get to my airbnb. The wheel broke off, I bashed the sides, and it looked awful. All the locals were staring. I imagine it was quite the scene.

    I could use these. These cases look hard as rock! Super durable!! 😉

    I definitely need a new carry on because I don’t even own one. It’s a purse. This would be lovely and I love Heys!

    I’ve never seen spinners like this before. How chic. Love the look and I know Heys puts out a good quality product. Could use an upgrade. My current luggage is on it’s last legs (wheels)

    I just returned from Paris. Carting our luggage around nearly killed us. The Metro there is like some sort of maze crossed with the Himalayas. We were tossing luggage over barriers, carrying it up and down staircases. squeezing it through turnstiles. It was crazy! My old heavy, barely maneuverable luggage really didn’t cut it. I would love a new carry on.
