Pack It Up, Pack It In

Now here’s one good-looking (imagine Derek Zoolander saying that two-word phrase, and it’s a lot funnier) travel case. The Excursion Gadget Organizer from Red Envelope aims to tame the raging mess of cords and adapters and handheld devices swimming in the bottom of carry-ons and handbags. But unlike many similar options, this one says, yeah, I organized my cords and I can pull off a Burberry scarf. Or something like that. Available in brown leather, the case features a tan canvas interior with two zippered pockets and an outside plaque that can be monogrammed. Cost: $45.

Slopes, Camera, Action

Show all those pansies back at the ski lodge how the hardcore do a little thing called shredding with the Oregon Scientific ATC-2k Waterproof Action Camera from Sharper Image. The hands-free video camera mounts on helmets, handlebars and other strategic spots and records up to 90 minutes using an SD media card (gotta buy that baby separately). Edit your footage on either a Mac or PC, upload to YouTube and just wait for the ladies to start knocking at your door. Cost: $129.95

Get a Grip on Those Drips

Move over juice box, there’s a new sheriff in town. Perfect for traveling parents with babes in arms, WaddaJuice comes in this nifty spill-proof bottle designed to keep kids from dribbling all over creation. And this ain’t no shady “juice product.” It’s 100 percent juice and filtered water. So keeping your kid clean doesn’t have to involve pumping him with extra sugar and preservatives. Flavors include apple, cranberry, grape, fruit punch and wild berry. Cost: $12.99 for 12

Proper Identification

Well, you can’t make jokes anywhere else in the airport these days, so you might as well make them on your luggage. Here’s how: Pick up a pack of Funny Luggage Tags from Pulchritude’s etsy shop at a bargain basement price. Tie one onto your bag. Let the games begin. Even better – there are 12 tags in each order. Great as little stocking stuffers or replacements when yours gets mangled by angry baggage handlers. Cost: $3
