Jewelry travel organizer ($22)<\/p>\n
Few travel itineraries these days require individuals to dress for dinner. But you don’t have to pack the family diamond choker or solid gold cuff links and shirt studs to find this jewelry case handy. It’s a great way to store rings, earrings and watches if you are leaving your hotel room for the beach. And your concierge will be impressed by how efficient you are when you hand the case over for the hotel safe. It’s lined with anti-tarnish velvet to prevent scratches.<\/p>\n
One side has rows of soft pegs to separate and keep chains from tangling. Trays fill the other side to organize rings, cuff links, pins and bracelets. The case can be found in the fall L.L. Bean Traveler catalog. You can order it at www.llbean.com or (800) 221-4221.<\/p>\n
Telescoping field chair ($129.95)
\nThe evolution of the lawn chair seems to have accelerated in the past decade. New materials and ingenious folding methods have brought advances over the traditional model’s aluminum frame with nylon webbing that folds flat to put in the car trunk. Sling-shaped cloth chairs with cup holders in the armrests are popular, but they can be murder on the lower back after a while. This Telescoping Field Chair made by Pico and available from Herrington is a high-tech director’s chair. It has good back support, and the legs shorten so the whole chair can be tucked into a flat case about the size of a laptop. So it’s much easier to carry than the long, awkward bags of the sling models. And it has the so-necessary cup holder and a pocket for keeping your snacks off the ground too. It’ll support up to 250 pounds and comes in blue or sage green. You can get it at www.herringtoncatalog.com or call (800) 622-5221.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
