Everything is so coordinated!

I don't have a picture, but my evergreen MAM holds my standard haul: book, Le Sportsac makeup pouch, Kate Spade wallet, Anna Sui foldable hairbrush, Tide pen, Reisenthal foldable bag, wet ones, tissue, work cell phone, personal cell phone, pen, assorted receipts, small notebook, keys, inhaler and breath mints. Phew! Small wonder I prefer big bags.

[GUNG]

I LOVE WET ONES! But I cant figure out how to fit that big bottle in my bag!?

Whats a reisenthal?

[riceandsoup]

Don't you get Wet Ones in travel packs in the US?

Sorry, it should be Reisenthel. It's a line of reusable, foldable bags. Save the earth one plastic bag at a time!

Can someone please share what they can fit in a Matinee?? i'm thinking about buying one and want to know how it compares to what a MA can hold. TIA!

Hi slip,

It definitely sounds like a lot, but I'm a NYer and I think NYers haul a lot of stuff due to the nature of transportation -- subways and cabs (not traveling in their own car). I leave in the morning and come back in mid-evening, so I kind of load up for the day. It's a work bag, so in a sense it's like a brief case. I'm a partner in a PR firm, so I'm constantly carrying files, client paperwork, invoices and magazines. The bag does start to get heavy when I throw in a bottle of water and change of shoes. I do see women carrying two or sometimes even three bags (two handbags/totes and one paper shopping bag from someplace like Saks with their shoes or lunch in it), which I simply could not do -- ever. I feel with that much stuff I'd be knocking people out on the subway or street when I turn around. I always go home to pick up my gym bag and drop off my other bag, so I'm not carrying both to workout.

My matinee holds my red chameleon organizer, book, and large wallet. I don't consider it a big bag at all. I don't carry my day planner when I use it, because it is a struggle to get it in and out. You can carry a magazine in there, but would have to fold it. Maybe I need at MAB, too!
