5. Jo Malone In-flight Travel Bag
The powers that be have vowed that liquids shall not be taken in quantities
over 100ml. No problem, if you pack this Jo Malone slim travel bag in your
hand luggage. You get your signature lime, basil and mandarin body lotion in
a 30ml container and plenty more besides in this chic cream travel-friendly
bag. A slap in the face to Customs jobsworths.

6. Paul Smith swirl passport cover
The standard maroon UK passport says little about you. Make a statement with
this Paul Smith-designed alternative in trademark swirls. It’s not cheap but
then you’d spend far more on a stylish purse or wallet.

Smith
7. Revo Pico wi-fi radio
If the thought of going away on a business trip and not being able to listen
to your early morning dose of DJ Mike Cheese on Suburbia FM fills you with
dread, help is at hand. The Pico is not the slimmest of gadgets to pack
(measuring 167x105x105mm) but it means that whenever you’re in range of a
wireless hotspot (except pay hotspots), you can tune into more than 5,500
radio stations that stream over the internet. The sound quality is sparkling
too. It also has another trick up its sleeve, it can stream music held on
your MP3 player or laptop.
£149.95 from Revo
8. Sennheiser PXC250 noise cancelling headphones
Slip these babies on during a flight and kiss goodbye to the throb of the jet
engines and the incessant wail of the todller in row 38. Very lightweight
(just 65g) and easily foldable for slipping in your hand luggage. Sennheiser
know how to make these things look desirable too. Meeoww.

9. Slingbox Solo
The Slingbox, a clever gizmo that connects to your home TV system and
broadband conection and then lets you watch it from your laptop anywhere in
the world, has been around for a while now. The latest incarnation, the
Solo, takes it to another level, with support for high def broadcasts. It
means you can watch the latest episode of X Factor from the comfort of your
Mexican motel room.

10. Wallpaper city guides
The design is pure Wallpaper minimalism. Just a swatch of bold colour and a
white strip with the city name in bold type. Don’t bother reading them –
just have them on your shelf at the office to look good. No. Forget that.
Take a dip inside – these design gurus know what they’re talking about when
it comes to business cities.
