Hi lovely TPFers! This is my first time posting a new thread so hope I'm doing it right.
I am currently debating between a Celine luggage tote micro in black (most likely smooth leather) vs Givenchy antigona small in black (smooth leather), but am not sure which one to go with!! I have been eyeing the Celine for a while but read that it is heavy. Then first time I went in store the Givenchy gave me the feels and felt lighter. Second time I thought the Celine was lighter and didn't feel the same excitement with the Givenchy (could be that I was in casual wear instead of work wear??). Perhaps I am overthinking this, but I want one which is classic and timeless and hopefully which I won't get tired of. And obviously something practical as well ;) Is the handheld feature of Celine a deal breaker?? Or the 'bulkiness' of the Givenchy which some people commented on??? Hmmm...
I work in a clinic so won't be carrying the handbag around too much but it would be nice to carry it through the night if I end up shopping or seeing friends after work..
I would appreciate any thoughts or advice, or even if you have any other bag or leather finish suggestion for a work bag - please fire away! :) xx

I would suggest Lancel Charlie bag... medium size. It's lighter weight than the Antigona, has a shoulder strap, wonderful grainy leather and fits a lot! Perfect for work and evenings out.
On the other hand it's cheaper than the Givenchy and Céline ....
Here is a pic of mine.
