Moynat has a lovely all leather camera bag, that comes with a top handle and a crossbody strap. The issue is that there isn't a version in navy blue atm. However, the Moynat blue is a beautiful color.
Maybe something to keep in mind if you don't mind waiting.

Here's a photo of the camera bag and then some other photos of Moynat's navy and royal blues.

I love that rich blue color - a little dark for what I'm looking for but it is beautiful. Their camera bag actually looks more like a vanity bag to me (like Chanel Filigree vanity case) and I'm not a fan of vanity bags. Appreciate the suggestion though! Maybe I'll have to look at other Moynat bags in that dark blue color. Very elegant and beautiful

Why not go with something from the Marmont line? - since you liked the soho, perhaps the small or mini Marmont camera bag would work? I see a lot of football wives and gf's wearing those at games on IG. Personally I use a clear bag just to be on the safe side; I'd hate to have a ticket in hand for a sports game or concert and be turned away (I've seen lots of people directed to a locker to place a bag or they leave back to a car).

I carry one of my several WOCs, Chanel, Goyard or my Valentino WoC.

I’m also a huge fan of WOCs. It just gets a little too snug when I want to bring sunglasses, mints, sometimes I bring a handheld fan, etc. And all of that can’t fit so I have to be picky about what i

I actually used to also have a marmont camera bag! It was a good bag and very functional but I feel similarly style-wise - it’s just not as exciting to me when I feel like so many others are wearing the same thing. I know not everyone feels that way but if I’m going to be spending a lot of $ on something I want to love it and have it feel special (though, I feel like some of my more common bags are still very special to me so I’m not sure why the marmont doesn’t feel that way)

and, that’s such a good point. I usually drive to games so it’s easy for me to just go back to my car and put my bag in there if needed, but for away games where I’m less certain of the policy and don’t have a car to put my bag in if I’m turned away that’s a great point.


I’m really digging the Versace one with the flap at the end. It’s sporty and casual but not too loud. I would want it in the more royal blue color- I’ll have to search to see if that’s available :) I’m not in a rush
 
@Scarlett O'Hara I was actually considering the Prada nylon in the royal blue but I’m not familiar with nylon. Will that color stain?

I don't think it will stain. I have multiple Prada nylon bags - totes, shoulder, cross body, mini (all are black). The nylon is thick and can be wiped with water and/or spot cleaned with soap. A sa once told me she wraps the handles with plastic if they're leather and washes in the machine on gentle. I've not tried that, would only hand wash.

Other thoughts:
-Saffiano leather is durable
-Gucci makes the monogrammed plastic in both handbags & travel collection. They used to have navy, idk if any have royal.
-Don't forget to look at "men's" bags. Designers may classify something as men's, doesn't mean women can't use them
-If you're okay with monograms, have you thought about Goyard? They're durable, I've seen royal, and they have a customization program.

Edited to add Saint Laurent Le Carre and if you're open to non-camera, the Sac de Jour. Both are available in what looks like royal.
