Target’s Popular Weekender Bag Is Back in Stock

I spend most weekends in the summer at my parents’ beach house. Since I usually head back to my city apartment before the work week starts, I don’t need a giant suitcase with me all the time; I just need enough room for a few outfits, shoes, and toiletries. 

I’ve owned my fair share of weekender-style bags over the years, but honestly, I’ve never found one that I felt was spacious enough for everything I needed to bring—until now. I just (finally) got my hands on the often-sold-out Soft Weekender Bag from A New Day at Target, and the $45 tote puts all my other bags to shame at a fraction of the price. 

A New Day Soft Weekender Bag 

One of my biggest qualms with other weekender bags is that their fabric has no give. However, this soft style from A New Day solves that problem by offering more wiggle room to fit an additional outfit or two since it’s less structured. It features interior and exterior pockets for organizing my essentials and has double shoulder straps and a crossbody strap for versatility. 

While I snagged it in the sought-after off-white color, it’s also available in brown, black, and green (currently sold out), which are more forgiving with stains. If you’re interested in snagging the popular bag for flights, it can hold up to 50 pounds, with enough room for larger tech items like a laptop, iPad, and Kindle, and it can even fit bulky camera equipment. 

Travelers agree, with one person calling it “big and spacious” and another deeming it “the perfect bag for the airport” thanks to its external trolley sleeve that’s easy to slide on the handle of any rolling suitcase. One shopper opted for the affordable style instead of more expensive options on the market for an upcoming 13-hour international flight.
