Help me find a more professional messenger bag
Blog friends, I need some fashion advice.
Remember when I mentioned my sore neck and shoulder a couple of weeks ago? Well, I decided to stop using my super heavy shoulder bag for awhile, and use a messenger bag instead. The problem is, the only messenger bag I have at home is this awful one from college – please see the photos below.
This messenger bag seems to be in a TON of my photos from living in Italy.
It worked well for me then! But it’s time for something new – uh, and a bit more professional.
(Apparently, even Steven used it!)
The bag seems to be working well – my neck and shoulder do not hurt as much. But, as you can tell from the photos, it has a very “college” look to it. I feel like a doofus carrying in on the train and into the office.
Can anyone recommend a more professional-looking messenger bag? I only prefer that:
- It be big enough to carry a newspaper, small lunch bag, wallet and little toiletry case
- Not be made of leather (or other animals products)
- Close with a zipper
Any ideas/suggestions? Thanks!
