I'm a 35-year-old woman who owns infinite tote bags and zero adult lady purses. Where do I start? I don't care about designer labels, but I want something that's well-made, functional, and nice enough to bring to a wedding.

Question

Clare V. Moyen Messenger: I've carried this exact bag for the last 2+ years, almost daily - anytime i need to carry a good amount of stuff - the bag doesn't look huge but carries everything. It can be a shoulder bag or cross body bag, comes with both straps! In my opinion, great quality for price value (like all Clare V bags). It's fun in green but comes in a range of colors, and you can usually find a 15% off coupon.
