Pack-It Caddy
Eagle Creek
www.eaglecreek.com
When you finally arrive at your destination—even if you're "roughing it"—you've got to keep up with good hygiene, unless of course you're Bigfoot. This means you have to tote around all your smell good, teeth cleaning supplies. Thankfully, Eagle Creek has a toiletry bag that's not too big, nor too small. You can stuff a total of 270 cubic-inches of hair-spiking goodness in there. Some of the convenient features include a hanging swivel hook, stain and water-resistant lining and a removable mirror. $30

Infrared Motion-Sensor Clock
Lewis N. Clark
www.lewisnclark.com
You’ve saved up all year to get away with your spouse, you don't want to spend the whole vacation in bed do you? Okay, maybe you do, which makes it even more important to have a good alarm clock so you don’t miss your flight back home after you're completely exhausted. The beauty of this alarm clock from Lewis N. Clark is that the backlight illuminates with just a wave of the hand within 12 inches of the clock (this function can be turned off). In addition to showing just the time, it also shows the date and temperature so you know if the sunshine is even worth getting out of bed for. $25

Bighorn
The North Face

Not every vacation spot stays toasty at night, which is where the Bighorn sleeping bag comes in handy. This mummy-style sack from The North Face protects against weather above 20 degrees. The bag is put together so that the stuffing stays where it's supposed to. Because of this, the bag is able to evenly distribute heat. To make sure you stay snuggly, Bighorn has easy-grab zipper pull tabs. $89
