Work bag with compartments

Getting fed up looking for the perfect bag.

I just bought the Kipling superwork but I dont love it and at 160 quid it’s too expensive to not love
I want a bag that has a laptop space, room for Filofax, notebook, pencil case, make up bag, purse etc but not be too heavy.

Needs to be smart for work due to meetings etc and will ideally have handles and a body strap

Please help me solves this dilemma

Look on Amazon for Brinch bags - there's quite a variety so I expect there could be one you like. My Brinch bag has compartments for laptop, tablet, general clutter, wires etc and has a cunning zip to allow it to slot over the handle bar of a wheely suitcase too. It is quite heavy though.

Thanks for the ideas

I found the perfect one but it seems only available in America and I can’t find a Uk stockist Hmm

zen it’s not a Dagne Dover bag you found is it?? I have one and love it but I got it in New York.

www.myus.com gives you a usa shipping address to quote as delivery address and will then export the item to you.

Yes @Peopleplease that’s exactly what it is ! It is gorgeous
I could get one from there as BIL lives in NY but I need to see things in the flesh before I can buy them

@zenasfuck - this is the one I have www.dagnedover.com/collections/classic-tote#BleeckerBlush except mine is in oxblood. They’ve changed the names - I got mine 2 years ago.

It’s gorgeous but it doesn’t have a long strap and the handles are a little bit short (although I have round shoulders so all bags slip off) and you have to be careful packing it. Mine ‘folds in’ on the bottom on one side because I didn’t pack it and had left it on the floor for a few weeks when I wasn’t using it.

@Peopleplease
Thanks for that info. It sure is a beautiful bag and I blood is the colour I would get - good choice Smile

I’ll keep scouring Ebay in case one comes up in Uk I think as I don’t want to risk buying from America and not being able to return it

@zenasfuck I spent ages picking it out in a tiny little shop. I wouldn’t have ordered online either. Have a look at YouTube as well - there are a few packing videos up.

Thanks @Peopleplease I’ll do some more research and Keep my eyes open for a Uk one
