I haven't got a 13", just 11 and 15 but I think for a small bag that still fits the essentials the 13 is probably the sweet spot. The 11 for me is more for going out for dinner or a lunch with the bare minimum rather than an every day type bag.

thank you for sharing!! what color are your 2 bags??

I have white in the 11, and navy in the 15.8

I have this color in the 13". Its a nice everyday color so I think you might want to go for a larger size :)

I agree with Jaime on the 11"

I noticed when I got my gold 11" from them that they tend to jack up the prices. The gold one was $198 and I think on the cambridge site its less. I was able to get 20% off the $198 but I guess that could afford that!!

It's nice. I like the stripes, but why the big price difference just because they added stripes? Are these also 11"?

I believe these are 11" by the look of it (they cleverly listed size as "none"), which makes it even more outrageous!

I love my tan/brown 11", can't fit a lot (purse, keys, make up essentials, ereader) but a nice accessory for weekend outfits or casual work days

Hi everyone, I'm new to this thread and would appreciate some advice. I'm 24 and just entering the job market so I was interested in your thoughts regarding which satchel you guys think would be work appropriate out of these two:

http://us.asos.com/Cambridge-Satchel...GNoZWwvUHJvZC8.

I personally like the first but I think both would be fine. Black is probably easier to match and more classic but they would both look fine at work.

Those are the exact reasons why I was leaning toward the black versus the contrast trim bag. Thank you for your help.

Thanks! I luv their new lavender and cambridge blue satchels. When I look at the 15" batchel in the cambridge blue, though, it reminds me of my burnt orange one that I got from Bohemia. I think its the same factory that makes them for both companies because they are identical!!
