Liike III Stretch Dress: This mid-length, sleeveless travel dress should be a boon to women on the go. Made of a woven fabric (94% nylon and 6% spandex) that is conducive to a traveler's movement, the Liike III dries quickly, wicks moisture with the best of them and, with a UPF rating of 50-plus, helps protect against the sun. The dress, which is sized from XS to XL, has hand pockets (including a small secure pocket in the right pocket), a side adjustment at the bottom hem, a mesh insert at the neckline and a reflective logo. Available in dark indigo and black. $100; https://usa.indyeva.com

Levenger Newport Reversible Tote and Wristlet: Virtually two bags in one (not counting the accompanying wristlet) in that by turning the tote inside out you can quickly switch looks to suit your mood or need. Made of vegan pebbled leather with light gold hardware highlights, the Newport has a tie-anchored open top (with zip closure wristlet) and 10-inch drop handles. The bag, which comes in camel/ivory, raspberry/ivory and Wedgewood blue/ivory, measures 16 by 4.75 by 11.25 inches and weighs 1 pound; the wristlet, which has a 5.75 -inch removable strap, measures 9.5 by 1 by 7.25 inches. $119; https://levenger.com

Kodak Dock Plus Portable Photo Printer: This new device from Kodak enables you to print photos instantly from your mobile devices via a Bluetooth connection. Fingerprint-proof and waterproof, each photo print, a 4 by 6-inch image, can be embellished with stickers, frames and filters with a free Kodak app compatible with IOS and Android devices. A USB-C pre-installed docking pin and a Lightning connector for IOS users are designed to make the printing process user friendly. The Dock Plus, which weighs 3.41 pounds, is powered by a power adapter, that needs to be plugged into a power outlet. $134.99; https://shop.kodakphotoprinter.com

Earth Mama Foaming Castile Soap: This vegan soap, available  5.3-ounce dispensers, has a multitude of uses, not the least of which is to handle some of the cleaning obligations of people in transit. Made from pure organic ingredients such as oils and herbs, the all-purpose castile soap, which has germicidal properties, can also serve as a household cleanser or for making baby wipes. For example, the lavender version (the soap also comes in unscented, sweet orange and "morning wellness") can function as a moisturizer, germ fighter, shampoo and wash for sensitive skin (babies and adults alike), so a little goes a long way as a take-along on a vacation of business trip. Not included in the product are artificial fragrances, triclosan, phthalates, parabens or sulfates, which speaks to the line's vegetable-based purity. $9.99 (Earth Mama products, incidentally, are available in travel-size gift kits); https://earthmamaorganics.com
