Style isn’t just what we wear – it’s how we move through the world. It’s what we carry with us and how we show up for other people (with kindness) along the way.
Lately, especially here – as fellow Minnesotan, I’ve been thinking a lot about intention – about slowing down, choosing better systems and extending a little more grace where we can. Even in the small, everyday things. Yes… even luggage.
For years, I was that person traveling with a random mix of suitcases – different brands, mismatched colors (very true and slightly embarrassing), zippers that mostly worked and zero real organization. It got the job done… but it didn’t make travel easier. Or calmer. Or kinder to myself.
This spring break, I finally decided it was time to level up. Yes, I waited that long (no judging, please).
Because here’s the thing: when you travel with family, work or both, the right luggage isn’t a luxury. It’s a system. And having a system in place changes everything – trips feel smoother, calmer and far less stressful before you even arrive.
Enter: BÉIS Travel luggage in Maple 🤍
And honestly? I wish I had made the switch sooner.

Why Good Luggage Changes Everything
When your luggage is organized, durable, and thoughtfully designed, it removes so many small stress points:
- You know where everything is
- Packing (and unpacking) is faster
- You’re not wrestling with zippers, wheels, or overstuffed bags
- You actually enjoy the process of getting there
This set feels like a grown-up, intentional upgrade – one that supports how I travel now, not how I traveled years ago.
The Luggage Pieces I Chose (All in Maple)
I went with three core pieces that work together seamlessly:
Not only do they function beautifully, but having them all in the same soft Maple color makes everything feel cohesive and elevated – no more baggage claim confusion or mismatched chaos.
Small Carry-On Roller: The Perfect Overhead Companion
This is my go-to for weekend trips, short flights or when I want to keep everything close.
Why I Love It:
- Thoughtful Interior Organization: Built-in compression panels and zip compartments keep outfits separated and secure.
- Smooth, Easy Glide Wheels: Effortless to maneuver through airports (even when juggling kids, coffee and a tote).
- Structured but Lightweight: It fits overhead easily without feeling flimsy or overbuilt. I can actually lift it overhead by myself – huge plus!!
Perfect for: Spring break getaways, overnight trips or carry-on–only travel.
Medium Check-In Roller: When You Need More Space (Without the Chaos)
This is the suitcase that finally convinced me checked luggage doesn’t have to feel overwhelming.
Why It’s a Game-Changer:
- Expandable Storage: Extra room without losing structure – ideal for longer trips (1-2 weeks) or bringing items home.
- Dual-Sided Packing: Keeps things balanced and prevents everything from shifting mid-flight.
- Durable, Easy-to-Clean Exterior: Because real life (and baggage handlers) happen.
Perfect for: Family travel, longer stays or trips where you want outfit options without overpacking stress.
Commuter Tote: The Unsung Hero of Travel Days
This tote deserves its own moment – because it does so much.
Why I’ll Never Travel Without It:
- Dedicated Laptop Sleeve + Organization Pockets: Everything has a place – tech, beauty, snacks and essentials. (note: fits 13″ laptop in the outside sleeve but you can squeeze a 15″ size in the main compartment at a diagonal)
- Trolley Sleeve: Slides perfectly onto your roller suitcase for hands-free travel.
- Polished Enough for Everyday Use: I use this beyond travel: errands, workdays and busy on-the-go mom life.
Perfect for: Airport days, road trips or daily life when you need function without sacrificing style.
Travel Feels Better When Your Systems Support You
Upgrading my luggage wasn’t about aesthetics alone – it was about choosing pieces that make travel feel less frantic and more intentional. When your bags are organized, cohesive and built to move with you, the entire trip feels easier from start to finish.
BÉIS Travel Luggage feels like one of those quiet upgrades – the kind you notice every time you pack, roll through an airport or arrive feeling just a little more put together.
Because sometimes leveling up your life starts with the things that carry you through it.
