Recommendations please….

I am seeking to reduce the number of bags I have and have one crossbody bag that I would primarily use on a daily basis, I’ve discovered I have a lot of bags many of which I haven’t carried in over a year. So I’m gearing up to sell most of my collection. So I’m seeking recommendations for a handbag that is incredibly durable, can be worn crossbody, has a removeable strap, has an outside pocket that can hold a phone (ideally also a top handle), and has no obvious logos. So no Gucci or LV monogram. I want to be able to carry the following items - mini pochette, compact wallet, 4-ring key hold, cles, lipstick, iPhone 14 pro max, resuseable shopping bag, and a small pack of wipes.

Ideally I’d like to spend less than 3k. I’m a public school teacher so i am looking for something that most people wouldn’t realize is designer or luxury (otherwise I’d just buy a pochette metis in canvas and call it a day ).

What’s the opening like? I have an Odeon mm and I find the opening to be a pain in the neck. I’d prefer to stay away from recognizable canvases though. Although DE isn’t as loud as monogram.
It's got a zip top. Honestly it's one of my favorite bags. I use it for errands constantly. I like how it lays flat against your body. it's very easy to wear.
 
Loewe puzzle could fit most requirements except the outside pocket - it has one but not big enough to fit a phone in! It would however be spacious enough to carry what you’ve said and are good quality and very low key.

the puzzle bag is put, mostly because I’ve purchased it three different times and returned it every time. It’s one of those bags I want to love and if it was half the price I would likely love it, but for the price point I just can’t.

Perhaps a Ferragamo Amy top handle? Seems to have most of the features you are seeking.

Bloomingdale's also carries it, and it's interesting to read the reviews!

I know Ferragamo has (had) a newer designer lately, so it's not even on their own website. It's more old school Ferragamo.
Very interesting option that I’ve never heard of before!
