Rebecca Minkoff makes the best bags. I have four, including one I carry almost every day, and I’m impressed with their durability. This week, RM is having an online sample sale. Here are five bags, under-$200 that bring a lot of style to the party.
*Love the sleek lines of this bag.
Inside the reader mail bag there are questions about summer beauty, hiring a personal shopper, navigating a sudden breakouts, and more. Let’s dig in!
And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.
Since Sloane was born, I’ve fallen hard into a black, white, and blue wardrobe. This is not necessarily a bad thing, but as spring blooms, I need a little color in my wardrobe (and probably a little print too). Here are a few tops that caught my eye for work.

This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
I like the bags and have one, and agree they are durable. I just cannot stand the danglers-they add nothing to the design in my opinion-they weaken it if anything. I took mine off.
I have had terrible luck with the. The leather piping around the bottom of my MAB wore thin and poked out and the strap on a work tote I have broke after two months. I am not impressed with the durability and I did not carry either of these every day.
Agree. I had a Jules satchel that I carried every day. The metal connector on the shoulder strap wore through four months in. I sent it off to have it repaired once, but when it wore through again six months later I just decided I was done with the bag and RM. It was a beautiful bag, though.
I totally agree!!! I have the bowery tote, thankfully I got it for cheap or I would be more annoyed, and the leather has worn really strangely. It’s gotten almost patchy even though it’s never been in the rain.
The link to the Regan Satchel doesn’t seem to be working. If I am able to find it I think I will get it though!
Fellow readers – any suggestions for work bag and law school graduation present from brands other than Rebecca Minkoff? Will be working in Midwest public sector (in court more often than not), so nothing too high-end, budget up to $500. I’ve tried and ruled out Lo & Sons, Dagne Dover and MZ Wallace. Thanks for any suggestions!
I like the Michael Kors bags. Henri Bendel also makes a decent bag.
I found my favorite bag, which is a Tory Burch, at Nordstrom rack for like $250. I do NOT like her York tote- I have it and it got floppy really fast, but I’ve had good luck with others.
Thank you both!
I’m surprised by the wear & durability issues posted. The only comment I support is the ridiculous dangling leather strips. I removed mine, as well. I have at least 4 RM bags and I’ve had no issues.
