AD: 🧳✨ Join me as I embrace a unique Latino tradition: filling up my carry-on luggage and wandering around my living space to beckon more travel adventures in the new year! I found these on @AmazonFashion: Lumesner Carry on Travel Backpack 🤔Did You Know? A tradition across Latin America, people prepare a suitcase filled with items symbolizing their desired travel destinations (think sunscreen for a sunny escapade along the Ecuadorian coastline!). This suitcase is then carried around one's home or neighborhood, embodying the hope of welcoming travel opportunities in the coming year. 🌍 This nifty luggage isn't just spacious; it's a tech-lover's dream with matching packing cubes, a shoe bag, compression straps, and a handy USB slot for on-the-go charging (I've even added my own cables for a personal touch!). It fits under the chair on a airplane as well! 🎒🔌 Transforming this into my streaming backpack, I'm all set with USB-C cables and batteries, ready to broadcast my journey live and bring good travel luck for the upcoming year. 🎥💼 And let's talk fashion - my entire look, right down to the convenient slip-ons (because who has time for shoelaces?), is all from Amazon Fashion.

![While no one is completely sure exactly when or why this fashion rule came into effect, the best guess is that it had to do with snobbery in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The "you can't wear white after Labor Day," rule was created to separate the old money elitists from the new money group. "It [was] insiders trying to keep other people out," according to Valerie Steele, director of the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology, in an interview with Time, "and outsiders trying to climb in by proving they know the rules."
For those who had money and could leave the city during warmer months, white was considered vacation attire. "If you look at any photograph of any city in America in the 1930s, you'll see people in dark clothes," Charlie Scheips, author of American Fashion, has said. Meanwhile, white linen suits and Panama hats were considered the "look of leisure."
In short, if you lived in the dirty city, you wore dark clothes. If you were wealthy enough to escape to a vacation home for the summer, you wore white “leisure” looks — until it was time to return to urban life, that is.
Menswear. Labor Day. White after Labor Day. White chinos. White pants. Tuxedo jacket. Dandy in the Bronx.
