April Lockhart's Must Haves: From Instant Coffee to a Designer Handbag

Dagne Dover Dakota Neoprene Backpack ($195)

"I never travel without my Dagne Dover Neoprene Backpack," Lockhart says. "I've had it for years and it somehow never looks dirty. But they're also washable, they fit everything, they're comfortable, and they slide over your suitcase handle. My husband steals mine from me; it's so good."

Pro Tip: The water-resistant backpack also features a laptop sleeve, dust bag, and shoe bag made out of recycled bottles.
