Re: If you had to carry ONE handbag for the next five years, what would it be?

Interesting thread, as I will be retiring at the end of this month. DH & I plan on doing more traveling & I am trying to find a smaller bag than I normally carry, but with some organization built in. I have one very big Travelog bag (it actually is too big for my needs) so I've been looking for a smaller Travelon in black for my daily and travel needs. Have not found the perfect one yet.

QVC used to carry another travel bag brand called Baggallini, apparently they no longer do so I linked their website for you. I've owned their large wallet crossbody bag for years and would like another color but I can't seem to wear out the one I own to justify a new purchase. {#emotions_dlg.blink}

That is an easy one. I would pick my Coach signature fabric black tote, the one with the outside slip pocket and end outside pockets; it has a pretty blue lining and has inside storage pockets and 1 zipper. This tote zips closed, and has adjustable shoulder straps too. I bought this about 5 yrs ago and it is my go-to bag, the one I grab out of the closet the most often.

I am very tired of the look of Birkins, and I don't even own one. Some bags do not have the type of leather that can hold up for five years of daily wear. A Florentine D and B could. None of my Tiganellos could hold up. Some of the L V could hold up. I can't decide.

Right now I want a Kate Spade crossbody, black leather, preferably pebble leather.
