I just bought one in the monogram canvas on Friday. It was my first LV, and I absolutely LOVE it. It's light, fits perfectly on the shoulder, and it has large side pockets on the inside. I put all the stuff I need to access daily in those pockets, and all the stuff I just need to carry with me is underneath. The side pockets are great too. Holds my keys and phone and would hold a water bottle, magazine or anything else you need to throw in there. I cannot say enough good things about the bag. It was exactly what I was looking for in a tote.
