Are you looking for the absolute BEST anti-theft sling bag for traveling this year?

The 90s are back and with it comes forgotten trends like sling bags, which are the more hip and edgier not-so-distant cousins of fanny packs.

Sling bags held their reign in the 1990s, but if you’re following current fashion trends, you’ll notice that they are making quite the comeback.

But you may be asking yourself, what are sling bags and why are they perfect for traveling?

The sling bags are a cross between backpacks and purses as they sit across your body with the one strap hanging off the shoulder of choice.

They hold small valuables like phones, wallets, and keys, making them the best bag option for travelers who need only the essentials as they go about their itineraries.

I also believe they are the safer choice when you’re in a city known for pickpocketing because of how small the bags are and how they sit across your body.

Since sling bags are back in style, I want to show you 7 of the best sling bags that keep overall comfort, safety, and efficiency in mind.

Are you trying to figure out if you can take both a backpack and a carry-on for your next flight?

It seems like long gone are the days of free checked luggage with our flights. It wasn’t that long ago that it was standard practice to get one or two free checked bags when we purchased a ticket.

However, with budget airlines and basic economy options becoming more popular among airlines, we’re having to make up the difference by paying for our luggage.

What’s the point of snagging a cheap ticket if you have to then add on expensive baggage fees?

If you want to keep the cost of travel down and avoid these insane luggage costs, you’ve probably been trying to figure out how to pack for your whole trip with just a carry-on.

While a carry-on can work for some, others might need a little more space depending on the length and destination of their trip.

Of course, adding a backpack to the mix will give you some more space, but do airlines allow both a carry-on and a personal item?

If you’re confused about the rules, check out my complete guide here! That way, you can avoid any surprise fees the airlines might try to throw at you at the airport.
