Julia Roberts has influenced our shopping habits on more than one occasion. We’ve aimed to recreate her red carpet looks by buying chic blazers, and after she was spotted wearing BaubleBar jewels, we snagged the exact styles for ourselves. Now, the 58-year-old actress is inspiring us once again, this time by wheeling around luxe-looking, discounted luggage that’s perfect for holiday travel.
Roberts recently shared a photo of her Quince suitcase on her Instagram Story, telling her followers she was ready to escape terrible weather.
“If the rain won’t leave, I will,” she joked, sharing a photo of herself standing by a gate, dressed in a cozy, light-colored outfit. The After the Hunt star even made sure to tag Quince in the post, calling out the brand behind her cool blue carry-on.
While the Quince suitcase typically retails for $170, shoppers can now snag Roberts’ exact style for $40 less during the retailer’s Black Friday Early Access sale. The lightweight, polycarbonate hardshell is ideal for those who don’t want to check their luggage, as it meets the carry-on requirements for most major airlines.
You also won’t have to worry about struggling to roll this design around the airport or lugging it once you reach your destination. It features 360° spinner wheels for a fuss-free experience, along with a rubber trolley handle that’s easy to hold. Experiencing a bit of rain like Roberts? The hardshell suitcase is water-resistant, keeping your stuff dry and safe from the elements.
Chronic overpackers will be thrilled to learn that Quince’s carry-on can expand by an additional inch, and the brand promises there’s enough room for “6-10 outfits” (although we do love a good challenge). Inside, you’ll find an interior pocket for extra storage and a removable laundry bag for dirty clothing. Seriously — the brand thought of it all!
This must-have luggage is available in six additional colors, and shoppers have compared it to styles they’ve spotted from “big brands.” One reviewer even warned others not to overpay since Quince’s version is “nearly identical.”
“Absolutely love this carry-on,” another person wrote. “Filled it to the brim for a 5-day trip and didn’t even have to expand the zipper. 3 cities, lots of rolling and it was so easy. No aching back or shoulder muscles when the trip was complete. Roomy internal pockets and appreciate the flat inside to keep all my items snug. The wheels are the absolute best. Highly recommend.”
Even more exciting is that Quince’s celeb-approved suitcase isn’t the only travel essential that will see a steep discount. With the brand’s Black Friday Sale starting on 11/28, shoppers can save up to $40 on Hard Shell Suitcases, then score 20% off the Compact Carry-On on Dec. 5. Even if you’re home for the holidays, now is the time to take advantage of these deals. Your future self will thank you come summer vacation time!
