Help! I need your help!

I have several bags that I love and enjoy, but I suddenly realized I don't have enough bag to carry.(It is like clothes I guess. I have many but I feel like I have nothing to wear when I look at my closet every morning

)
So, I decided to buy some, maybe two because of my budget limitation, and I'd like to hear from you what is your best bag for each occasion to get some help to decide which bag I am going to buy.
I am thinking to buy one to carry to my office/school(need to put some text books, so I thought about old or new Stella or large multipocket or venetia or ....) and one for going out(thinking about the beat bag, stam, baby stam, mary or hum... so many ), but I am not sure what is the best for me and each use.

So, can you tell me what is your best
1. Work bag
2. Hang out bag like meeting with friends for lunch or shopping
3. Going out bag like going to a club or on a date

Any comments would be really appreciated! TIA!!!

1. My east/west tote is a good work bag
2. Stam is my going-shopping bag
3. I would probably get a baby Stam or Rock bag for going out (if I went out! LOL!)

indi3r4 · Oct 28th, 2009, 09:22 PM

i like a roomy and big bag for school/work so I can haul everything.. so it'd be alyona, hudson, or the carter for me..

for hanging out, i LOVE my cecilia, stam, and trish..

going out, i usually carry a clutch.. i only have one MJ clutch at the moment so the memphis pochette is my answer..

tadpolenyc · Oct 28th, 2009, 09:23 PM

1. bruna or the venetia
2. large mp or large single
3. stones clutch or a little stam (i used to own one in topaz, but would love to get one in black)

tigertrixie · Oct 28th, 2009, 09:41 PM

1. Hudson
2. Stam, Cecilia or Trish
3. Eugenie clutch or icy mp

kmroboto · Oct 28th, 2009, 09:52 PM

1. Blake
2. any MBMJ - I have some older season bags that convert from shoulder to cross-body which are perfect for shopping and hanging out
3. Memphis pouchette (which I added a strap to)

selmom07 · Oct 28th, 2009, 11:44 PM

1. Hudson, Klein, patchwork satchel, Saloni
2. Stam, large single, Reena (any from #1)
3. single, Camilla, Sweet punk pouchette, frog sweetie pouch

matchka · Oct 29th, 2009, 12:14 AM

1 How about a Sasha for the work/school bag?

2 Stam

3 Single (small), eugenie, or thrash!!!! or even one of the current animal wristlets!!!

1. Work bag: definitely the MP, venetia or blake. depending on how much you carry with you....if you carry a lot like folders, etc...i'd go with a venetia. moderate amount of work stuff....then the blake. bare minimum: MP. my own personal fav for a work bag though is the venetia.
2. Hang out bag like meeting with friends for lunch or shopping i prefer the stam or baby stam. once again it depends on how much you carry with you, and what weight factor you're comfortable with.
3. Going out bag like going to a club or on a date
baby stam for sure! it's the perfect size and can either top off a lil' black dress for a super chic sexy outfit, or can be worn more casually, with jeans and a nice top and/or blazer for a nice casual look. it's such a wonderful, versatile bag!

SassieMe · Oct 29th, 2009, 08:10 AM

This thread is a great idea! I'm so new to MJ that I've seen a lot of photos, but not many of these bags in rl. So it's really helpful to see how much versatility they have. I've been looking at venetia, but wasn't sure how practical it would be. Now I know! Thanks again to you wonderful PF ladies!

Dawn · Oct 29th, 2009, 12:03 PM

Work: Any of my Stellas (esp the so-cool new stella b/c it has the longer strap)
Hanging out: MbyMJ Sasha
Going out: Original black clutch

spaceyjacy · Oct 29th, 2009, 01:38 PM

I don't need anything very specific for work, but I think if I did, the Bruna would be a great option.
Also, I use most of my bags for hanging out or shopping so I won't list them all. The single has become my new go to option for this though since its so little, cute, and easy to match .
As far as going out bags go though: Mahogany Clutch and Mika.
