Soapbox Bags creates some of the nicest beauty cases, travel cases, handbags and brush rolls for the modern day woman. Created with a classic sense of beauty, Soapbox Bags was born out of inspiration from Sara Newman’s working days in Japan with some of the most talented make-up artists in the world.

Born in Long Beach, California, Sara knew from an early age that she wanted to be a model, a dream that was realized when at 7th grade she grew to 5′11″ and was signed on her fifteenth birthday by Elite Models. Her modeling career took her to Milan, Paris, London, and all over Japan—yet she still managed to attend and graduate from Harvard University.

While in Japan, she observed that make-up artists there kept their make up in black lacquer “Bento” style boxes. Tired of never having a functional, proper travel bag for her make-up and inspired by what she observed in Japan, and coupled with her attraction to the classic styling of the 1950’s, Sara Newman’s Soapbox Bags company was born. The company now has a showroom/retail store in Venice, California and various stores nationwide carry her products. The unique designs of Soapbox Bags are also available online at Luggagepoint.com.

The ZUCA collection of sport frames and insert bags started because of the need to provide relief to a young student who was diagnosed with 30-degree curvature spinal scoliosis. The problem of carrying heavy books to school is not confined only to students with spinal disorder; it is a problem for every student⎯especially as they negotiate stairs and hallways with the heavy load that is usually found in school backpacks. It is also a frequently encountered problem for travelers who also have to carry their bags as they negotiate crowded and busy airport terminals or train stations. In response to the design ideas requested by students, Nick Udall, designed and built the ZUCA Sport Frame, the company’s flagship product that tackled chronic back issues and promoted healthier living.

ZUCA products are committed to considerate designs that are intended to haul sports gear, provide seats for weary travelers, and to consider people’s health as well as their need to transport personal things without pain or hassle. The Sport Frame comes in three different frame colors and 21 different bag designs are available.

The ZUCA Sport Frame comes in unique and seductive designs with attractive, silent, flashing LED wheels. It is very light and easy to pull, especially because of its 38 inch telescoping handle. The unique dual wheels were designed for durability and rugged use (climbing stairs, running over rough terrain, etc.). Due to the clever design of the Zuca, it provides a large amount of useful space to store more items. The sport frame is 18 inches tall 10 inches deep, and 14 inches wide. It’s made of aerospace grade aluminum, which is light and extremely durable. The ZUCA Sport Frame costs $100.00 and is shipped FREE from LuggagePoint.com

When you purchase a ZUCA Sport Frame be sure to select an insert bag for it too. You can choose from 21 bag designs which have to be ordered separate from the frame. Owning different insert bags, in different designs and colors, will allow you to mix and match your frame and your bag. By purchasing a couple of different bags, you will be able to use each of them for specific purposes, yet you’ll be able to use the same frame.

The ZUCA Sport Deluxe Colors Insert Bags come in nineteen attractive colors and are made from premium waterproof polyester so the schoolbooks and other contents will be safe even if it is raining. Made with an elegant design, this insert bag is easy to remove and wash. In case the insert bag is getting old and frayed, it is easy to get another insert bag that will fit exactly to the sports frame. The ZUCA Sport Deluxe Colors Insert Bags are priced at $45.00 at LuggagePoint.com and shipping cost is $8.95. If you order your insert bag along with your Zuca Sport Frame, your shipping will be FREE!

The ZUCA Sports Basic Colors Insert Bag with Logo is another style that will fit the Sport Frame. This type of insert bag comes in two colors: chili and midnight. It is also made from premium polyester, which is also waterproof. You can buy it at LuggagePoint.com for $30.00 with $6.95 shipping cost.

To protect your ZUCA Sport when it’s not in use, you will need the ZUCA Sport Travel Cover. It is made from ballistic nylon and is available in black, pink or silver and it is priced at $45.00.

Getting these products from the ZUCA collection featured on LuggagePoint.com will guarantee that carrying school books by students or personal items by travelers need not be a pain in the back (or other anatomical locations).

Enjoying music from a portable device is not that enjoyable when one is in a noisy and crowded place like a busy airport terminal, a train station, a shopping mall, or when trying to catch up on a little sleep or relaxation on a flight. Noise canceling headphones are intended to reduce unwanted ambient sounds like acoustic noise by instituting a means of active noise control (ANC), thereby resulting in destructive interference, and a process of canceling out the noise within the enclosed atmosphere of the headphones. The process essentially uses a microphone and electronic circuitry that generates an anti-noise sound wave that has the opposite polarity of the sound wave arriving at the microphone.

With noise cancellation, it is now possible to enjoy music in a noisy environment without the need to turn up the volume and potentially damage your hearing. And while listening to soft music delivered through noise canceling headphones, it will be possible to catch up on sleep during a noisy flight.

LuggagePoint.com offers several noise-canceling headphones that will be beneficial during holiday travel, such as:

Handbags have become fashion statements that at times determine the success or failure of a woman’s outfit. Although there have been a lot of changes in the styles, purposes, and costs of handbags through the years, they still are an integral part of a woman’s outfit. There are a variety of handbags for every occasion, style, outfit, or even mood.

Women in all walks of life carry handbags. Students carry them on and off campus; career women carry them to the office. Housewives carry them on their grocery trips and while they are running errands; older ladies carry them as they go about their daily activities. You don’t often find a woman who does not carry a handbag!

Handbags come in different sizes, shapes, and colors. Handbags are made from a variety of materials ranging from leather to cotton or polyester and other non-indigenous materials; they could be made of crocodile and snake skin or bamboo and abaca fiber. Handbags range from a designer bag to an ethnic bag and they range in price from a few dollars to several thousand dollars. But handbags, in whatever shape or form, color, or material are used by women everywhere.

Some of the more popular types of handbags are:

• Casual handbags for everyday use – from Monday to Friday and sometimes even during casual activities on the weekends. These bags typically have sling handles and several zippered partition pockets that handily store coins, business cards, and any other small items that women carry. They are usually made of leather, fabric, and other indigenous materials. Casual handbags normally have a cell phone pocket and dog-hook key holder inside too. They may be mass produced or expensive, unique designer products.
• A hobo bag is a unique style of handbag that is large and has a crescent shape. It has a slouchy posture with a long strap designed to wear over the shoulder. It is made out of soft, flexible materials which are why it tends to slump or slouch when it is set down. It is referred to as hobo bag because of its resemblance to the bundle on the stick that hobos are portrayed to carry.
• A tote bag is a large handheld bag that is intended to carry things such as books, clothes, and everyday items. It is typically made of canvas, nylon or leather. A tote bag usually has zipper compartment that divides it into sections. A tote bag is intended to carry a lot more stuff than other types of handbags.

Regardless of the type, the material, and the cost, handbags are an indispensable component of any woman’s outfit and fashion. Women match their handbags with the clothes they wear so it is just expected of them to have a handbag that has the same shade of color as their clothes and their shoes. Formal wear will require formal handbags; casual wear will need casual handbags. Women will need signature handbags whenever they wear signature clothes and accessories. It’s all about staying in line with the latest fashion and necessities a woman needs to include in her outings.

Fortunately, LuggagePoint.com carries a huge variety of handbags suitable for every need and to fit every budget. On our site, you are able to shop by price, shop by color, shop by manufacturer or shop by type of bag. Check out all of the great handbags that we have to offer!
