Summer has started, which means you're going to outside. A lot. We take trips, we go to the beach, we hit the pool, we go to theme parks, we go to concerts, and we go to festivals. When we travel, we always bring a water bottle with us. It's too expensive to keep buying water all day and it's super annoying to have to carry them or shove them in your purse. In fact sometimes you don't even want to take a purse, but Travelon has amazing water bottle totes.
I've shown you the
Greenlander Anti-Theft Water Bottle Tote, and now I bring you the Boho Anti-Theft Water Bottle Tote. I've showed you the older version of this a few years ago, but it's been updated and is still stylish and a great summer travel companion.
The quilted exterior is nice to look at and comes in pretty colors and patterns. Eric loves this bag and specifically wanted this pattern, because he thought it was fun. I also love this one, because not only is it functional, but it also doubles as a "stadium bag". If you have gone to a festival or sporting event in the past, you may notice that only certain size bags (in other words, really small bags) are allowed into the venue. These are called stadium bags.
The inside is now insulated, so you can keep your beverages cooler longer. Any accidental spills or bottle sweat will be contained. If you need to bring along a baby bottle or keep some meds cool, you can use this for that as well.
Not only does this pretty bag hold even a large bottle of water easily, but it has a locking zipper pocket, so you can carry necessities without worrying about it falling out of your pocket or getting stolen. This is also the perfect bag for going through the airport, because it has RFID-blocking technology for your credit cards, ID and passport.
There's quite a lot of room in this bag. Here is a video of how I would pack it for a trip on the plane.

When I'm going around town or on a road trip, I often take the dog. I don't forget about her needing to hydrate as well, and can take along a collapsible bowl for water. Bring two and you can use the other for food, too, depending on where you're going and how long you're going to be gone.
The tote has a wide, adjustable strap with a locking clip, so it can be secured to a chair or table while you're sitting down to a meal or watching your new favorite band. The body and strap are anti-slash, so you don't have to worry about anyone stealing your belongings, even if they aren't many. We'll be taking this bag to Las Vegas next month, where it will be in the 90s of even upwards of 100°F. Staying hydrated can be challenging, and expensive, so it will also save us money.
The locking clip on the strap is great. It allows you to feel safe when you're carrying the bag with valuables in it, but it also allows you to wrap the strap around a chair or table or any other stationary or large object, so you can concentrate on other things, like having fun. It's a big bummer to be worried about your bag getting snatched all the time. Don't let it ruin your trip.
Eric and I both carry this bag comfortably with the varying strap lengths. I like it to be a bit shorter and he needs it to be longer, because he's much taller than I am. You still have time to buy for Father's Day or your summer travels or activities.
