Need travel gift suggestions

I still have to get a Christmas gift for one of my best friends. She just picks up and takes off once or twice a year and goes somewhere here in the US or abroad for a week or two.

Need some suggestions that a female or any impromptu traveler may want. She's only 4'11" so I'm thinking something that will help her carry stuff, more exciting than luggage.

All suggestions welcome, want to spend $100 or so.

Iceland. Signed copy of model release available upon request

what about one of those small travel shoulder bags that have some theft prevention?

there is a wire in the strap so you cant snip and run
and the zippers are not easy to ease open.

leather bound travel diary?

Noise cancelling headphones

A nice travel pillow--not the 10 cheapies

This may be a bit intrusive, but is absolutely the best thing I have purchased for travel--enrollment in TSA pre-check.

I 2nd the motion on ANC headphones. They are game changers, especially on longer flights.

I'm going with the Vera Bradley organizer. Thanks for the suggestion Paul and thanks to everyone else for good ideas.
