I usually carry a small bag but I like this one when I have to carry paperwork. The reinforced metal corners keep it structured and it has a little zipper pouch that clips to a strap + a snug pocket inside for a phone
i’ve been using a small sling bag for the past year and always end up with my hands and pockets full of the overflow that won’t fit in my attempted minimalist approach to storage. i recently bought a fairly oversized satchel and it’s markedly improved my day to day life. i can bring my books AND water bottle AND notebook AND camera AND ongoing collection of sentimental bottle-caps AND i have a place to put the pomelo i bought on my walk AND the jacket i might want for later on AND my hands are now free for high-fives or dancing or putting more things in my huge bag!
Lightweight
Fits my: makeup, 32oz water bottle, 2 iPads, notebook all my crap really. Adjustable strap length and I think it’s still cute enough to wear to dinner. Comes in leather as well for a classier option. Highly reccomend!
It’s a little on the small side so I can’t carry a book flippantly but big enough for my daily essentials. Looking for something bigger for days when I don’t want to be as intentional about what I am carrying Tons of pockets, relatively comfortable, and scored for a price that didn’t make me want to vomit :)
My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
