Help me pick the right one (or suggest something better)!

Hi. I'm 41, a teacher and need something professional for work.

As such, I want to stick with neutral colors, so I can have a bag for all seasons.

I'm trying to decide between two bags.

1. https://m.katespade.com/products/la...ale-handbags-wallets&dwvar_PXRU6275_color=018

Or...

2. https://m.katespade.com/products/ho...ale-handbags-wallets&dwvar_PXRU5586_color=018
(In the black/pumice color)

Which should I get?

Or, do you have something better to suggest?

TIA!

Hi hi, I prefer the 2nd one. Why not consider the coach rouge or carryall?

I always like structured bags for work.

I prefer the second one very much over the first. The Furla Piper bag is also a sleek professional looking bag.

The Clare V. Simple Tote is beautiful and classic:

If you are looking for something lightweight, there is always the Tory Burch Ella tote:

If you'd like to be trendy, you could go with the saddle/messenger style bag from Fossil ( if you take the key off, it elevates it a lot, plus you could add a tassel or charm of your choice), and you can even have it monogramed.

I hope these help!! Keep us updated on what you decide to go with!
