The TikTok-Viral Hairspray I Always Pack For Trips to Los Angeles

Monos x Sincerely Jules Metro Tote in Cactus ($235)

Confession: I've been rocking with the same black weekender and slate gray carry-on for years. While I love this monochromatic combo, I'm determined to switch up my luggage look more often. Enter: this eye-catching tote from the Monos x Sincerely Jules collab. Since influencer Julie Sariñana is from LA, it's no surprise that this tote turned out to be the ideal carry-on companion for my trip. The lovely green shade is a nod to the lush Southern California landscape, and the roomy interior comfortably fits my laptop, magazines/books, charger cables, and more. As someone who always needs her emotional support water bottle nearby, my favorite feature is the interior water bottle pocket, which keeps it nice and snug, minimizing the risk of spillage.
