Dopp kit

When I take a staycation on the Eastside, I’m sure to bring a second outfit for the evening, my computer, a dopp kit full of my toiletries and a jacket in case it gets colder.

“Since guitarists often forget their capos, I often carry one to music jobs, and one lives in my dopp kit with the toothbrush, etc.,”

A gift worth considering for that special someone who is still storing their hard-earned stash in a desk drawer, shoe box or repurposed Dopp kit, the carrying and storage cases made by L.A.-based Apothecarry are humidor, lockbox and herb-organization system all in one sturdy Alderwood box.

Mr. Vilanova never packs his Dopp kit without a straightener.

“I like to keep a Dopp kit packed with one of each thing a client might need on a trip, like shampoo, conditioner and a toothbrush. The extras go in a little travel bin — usually under their sink, depending on the storage situation,” said Ms. Strickland, who helps clients, many of whom are avid travelers, organize their homes and offices.
