Here is a list of some cool items for women to splurge on (or add to their gift wish lists) when packing for a trip. If you have a travel junkie on your list, whether she zips around for pleasure or for frequent business trips, consult this list of top travel gifts for women. Your travel aficianado mom, wife, sister or daughter will love these gift ideas.

1. Miracle Dress

This dress is a must-have for any avid traveler of the female persuasion. It's comfortable, wrinkle-free and dries quickly. It is just dressy enough to jazz up for a night out at a fancy restaurant, but just casual enough to pair with black sneakers for a walking tour.

2. Rose Lady Travel Pin

What travel junkie gal could resist such an adorable pin? The rose lady is ready to go anywhere, holding her passport in one hand and a bag in the other.

3. Women's Dual Time Watch

She can make a stylish statement while keeping track of two time zones. Perfect for the woman traveler. The business woman can know when to touch base with the home office, or call home to say goodnight to the little ones.

4. Comfort Travel Kit

This kit includes three popular comfort items: the comfort travel pillow, comfort eye shade and travel ear plugs. Travel like a lady with these pampering and privacy items.

5. Bumps B Gone Travel Hangers

So many times those hotel hangers are deplorable, sometimes clothing-shape-damaging wire menaces. Solve the problem for her with these handy, compact hangers can even be used to hang-dry clothes.

6. Nail Polish Remover Pads

I would never recommend packing nailpolish remover. If it spills or busts, it will be mighty unpleasant. But this is a nice alternative. Compact and contained, these wipes certainly come in handy and tuck nicely into her suitcase or toiletry bag.

7. Leather Travel Jewelry Case

Traveling with jewelry is never an easy feat for women. The choices are usually to either wear it at all times, cram jewelry into a bag and hope it doesn't tangle or carry multiple individual cases that came with each item. Problem solved. This handy hard case has suede-lined compartments that separate watches, necklaces, rings and more.

8. Multi-Mag 7X Lighted Compact Mirror

This is a handy mirror to have, especially for overnight flights or long train rides. You can get a close up peek at your baggy eyes or for applying makeup, even in the dark air cabin or train compartment during overnight travel. Use it hands-free with the built-in stand.

9. Door Stop Alarm

Create an instant security system in a hotel room, train cabin or anywhere you have a door. It's simple to use, inexpensive and effective. Simply slide the door jam under the door, and the alarm will sound if someone tries to open the door. This is especially useful for women traveling alone, or even mothers traveling with adventurous toddlers.

10. Leather Security Purse

The right purse can make or break a trip. What's wonderful about this one is this can easily serve as a woman's all-the-time purse. But it's also well-suited for travel, with lockable zippers and an amazing nine separate pockets.
