Personally, I do not get excited when it comes to luggage, but the Cocoon Innovations “Grid It” organizer is something that has caught my attention. (At least, not practical luggage. If you want to discuss the new Betsey Johnson flaming pink, leopard-print carry-on suitcase, I will be more engrossed in the conversation than Paris Hilton with a mirror.)

The Cocoon Innovations “Grid It” organizer is a revolutionary design that is both ingenious and surprisingly simple. The organizer features a series of elastics stretched over the entire surface of the organizer, criss-crossed like a woven basket, which allows it to carry anything and everything.
