mina baie nylon tote: changed my life! my husband surprised me with this bag last week, and i can't stop talking about it!! soooo many pockets, my work bag has never been so organized. yes it's technically a diaper bag, but it's so sleek & chic it doesn't matter. will also be using as my personal item on planes from now on.

it fits my laptop and several notebooks, a 600 page book, mini umbrella, 25 oz water bottle, the many snacks i need to survive a day at the office, chargers, over-ear headphones, and more, without feeling cluttered at all.

comes with a strap to wear it crossbody! the nylon is water-resistant and easy to clean. it has a secret external pocket for your phone. it has a hook for your keys. it can slide onto a suitcase handle for ease at the airport. i'm obsessed with it.

i was using the worst work bag ever (ripping vintage mudd messenger bag with minimal pockets, always weighed like 25 lbs, horrible weight distribution that hurt my back and shoulders very much), which is why my husband gifted me this one. he said he scoured the web and this bag stood out as the winner. i agree!

vintage coach bucket tote: this is the perfect bag. i stole it from @Annette and it was a bag i remember her using while i was growing up. it fits a laptop beautifully and always hits the right balance of polished and relaxed. i condition the leather every so often and im confident this will last forever.

Baggu Cloud Bag: I have the small cloud carry-on in black, but it comes in lots of cute colours/designs. It has a hidden zipped laptop pocket and lots of nooks to shove bottles, books, lunch, clothes, everything you might need.

It comes in a couple of different size options depending on your needs. I use it as my carry-on for flights, my daily work bag, and a weekender bag.

So versatile, lightweight, the straps are comfy on my bony shoulders, it folds up super small into its interior detachable pouch for easy storage, cleans easily; I could go on forever.
