I Always Go on Vacation With Paravel's Cabana Tote Bag

I’ve traveled a lot over the past year; we’re talking a night here and there in NYC, a long weekend in Puerto Rico, a week in Miami, a Caribbean cruise, and even a two-and-a-half week trip to Hawaii, California, and Seattle. During that time I became a pro at packing, trying out a number of suitcases, totes, backpacks, and duffles. The lesson I learned? Multi-functioning bags can be a serious game-changer. One of my all-time favorites? The Paravel Cabana Tote.

First off, this particular bag has sold out a whopping seven times, per the brand—and it’s easy to see why. It’s incredibly eye-catching; the style is delightfully preppy, featuring old school Cabana stripes in your choice of four equally cool color options. The material is made out of what Paravel calls EcoCraft Canvas, which looks like traditional canvas but is actually made out of 33 recycled water bottles. (Paravel is a carbon neutral brand and uses sustainably sourced, recycled materials for all of its luggage and travel bags.) Vegan leather accents add a refined touch, and it's available in three sizes—small, medium, and large. Plus, it’s personalizable; you can have it embroidered with your initials in the color of your choice for an additional $25, or hand painted for $65. 

The best part? All three sizes of the Paravel Cabana bags are on rare sale right now—snag 25 percent off for a limited time.

In terms of functionality, it’s the perfect all-around tote. Not only is the canvas durable, spill-proof, and stain-repellent, but water-resistant lining keeps liquids from leaking out. I own the large version and the interior is seriously roomy; it includes one interior zippered pocket for your more precious belongings plus two slip pockets, perfect for a laptop and other gadgets. The large size also works as a personal item for the plane. 

Additionally, the Paravel Cabana Tote is super versatile. Not only do I use this bag for traveling days, but it doubles as a great pool-slash-beach tote (the large holds a few towels) and also a large purse for day trips, shopping, and other excursions. It also comes in handy for overnight trips to NYC, trips to the farmer’s market, light grocery runs—you name it.

Shoppers agree that the tote is “both attractive and functional” and “looks high end without trying too hard.” As one fan simply put it: “Whether for travel or your everyday life, it’s the perfect bag.” Snag your perfect Paravel Cabana Tote before the sale ends and it sells out again.
