Handbags

[fairydogmother]

No cheating, haha. My choice would be a Dooney zip zip satchel. Can be hand held, shoulder or crossbody. Roomy and structured. Classic timeless design. 
You?

I would choose a crossbody so I can have my hands free. 

It's safer too!

I have about 10 dooney bags but for me I prefer carrying my Baggalini or IHKWIP crossbody bags because of the card slots with rif protection and added compartments that I can use to organize whatever else I might be carrying. These bags are reasonably priced and just great for everyday. I think for me when Covid came along and alot of social activities came to a halt there was no need to keep buying big expensive bags (at least for me) Once I started buying these small crossbody bags I got hooked with the simple organization. Love my inexpensive crossbody bags

I now own 5 or 6

Aimee Kestenberg's "All for Love" crossbody. It's just big enough and has a large outside pocket, perfect for my Android.

I purchased it in baby blue (on sale) no less and just love it.

I have a Kestenberg bag in soft turquoise leather that I dig out and use every summer but my old faithful is also the Dooney zip zip bag.  It comes in so many pretty colors.  It meets all my criteria.

I carry a colored shopping bag literally bought from a grocery store.  I toss in what I think I need with plastic bag covering.

Probably a Brighton organizer bag. No wallet needed and everything else fits in a small, lightweight bag.

@fairydogmother   My choice is also the Dooney & Bourke Zip

                             Zip. I have six, so I would have to decide

                             which color. The newest one is red, so maybe

                             that would be the one.

                                I have never used the shoulder straps. I don't

                               like the looks of a shoulder strap on a hand

                               bag with handles sticking up.

                               If I want a shoulder bag, I buy a shoulder bag.

One of my Brightons, either a tote or one of the organizers...love my Andretta Tote....

I have the same Kate Spade medium soft pebble leather bag in two colors, Blush for spring/summer and Fig (a beautiful Burgundy) for fall/winter.  If I had to choose it would be the Fig.

I love soft leather bags and all the hard structured D&B bags are all packed away.  Perhaps if I was still working I might still use them but I doubt it.
