Who says oversized bags are just for Burberry fans? Lily Collins proved otherwise when she arrived in Venice, Italy today, carrying a massive Balenciaga tote instead of a suitcase.

The actress, who’s back in the northern Italian city to film Emily in Paris season 5, kept her travel look simple and neutral. She layered a nude button-up with a popped collar over a black crewneck tee, topping it off with a sturdy gray Uniqlo chore coat. For comfort, she wore tapered black joggers and dusty brown Adidas Handball Spezials. (After landing, she quickly transformed into her on-screen persona, slicking back her bob, applying a bold lip, and slipping into a polka-dot dress with matching dupatta and sparkling rhinestone earrings.)

Collins added feminine touches to her otherwise unisex outfit with sepia-toned cat-eye sunglasses and gold hoop earrings. She carried a brown raffia bucket hat (which she recently wore to Wimbledon) in one hand and a large black Balenciaga City bag in the other. The oversized tote, nearly a foot tall and over a foot-and-a-half wide, was undeniably spacious—but not too over-the-top.

Her understated look was a far cry from Emily Cooper’s bold, colorful wardrobe, packed with bright suits, loud prints, and clashing patterns. Still, both Collins and her character would likely agree: a giant City bag makes for a seriously stylish travel companion.
