Dear PurseBop:
On vacation, how do you securely store your luxury handbags in your hotel when you are out all day long?
Dear Vacationer:
While on vacation, and for peace of mind, it is best to store your luxury bags in their dust bag in your locked suitcase when you are out of your hotel room. All your small valuables should always be locked in the room safe as well.
Some travelers report bringing an extra lock similar to a bicycle lock and securing the locked luggage containing luxury items to a piece of furniture in the hotel room. Others store their luxury items in the hotel’s safe deposit box during the day. Some also install a camera in their room to deter theft or to track if anyone enters their hotel room uninvited.
In addition, consider adding Air tags to each of your luxury purses and every piece of luggage. This will aid in the recovery of any items that are stolen or misplaced. Place the tag in a hidden compartment or zippered pocket so it is not visible.
Another tip is when shopping, ask if the boutique will deliver your purchases to your hotel so you do not have to carry the packages around with you. This is a major safety tip and recommended for all shopping. Most, if not all, luxury boutiques are happy to deliver your purchases to your hotel so you may continue shopping hands free.
Have a great vacation!
