I just got an email with a $5 scratch gift card. I guess I did it in time.

WTH? I just checked my email and I got one, too. I posted several days back that I had entered via email and they replied saying that they had no scratch cards to give away via email and I would have to go to the store to get one, which I wasn't going to do because I lived 1 1/2 hours away from a Nordstrom. I'm not sure what to make of this but maybe they got in trouble for not providing scratch cards via email as was clearly stated on their site but were worried about litigation?

Okay bag ladies (hehehe), I have been on this mission for about a year that seems like it should be easy but so far no cigar. I’m looking for a medium to large satchel /tote/shoulder bag that can carry all the normal stuff - sunglasses, wallet, phone + a water bottle and a light layer rolled up for me or my kid and maybe a snack. I don’t want a giant open tote. I want something with structure that I can set in the passenger seat and reach in and get something easily without it flopping all over the place. A top zipper is required without a big flap over it. A flap over a front pocket or a tiny strap that I don’t have to buckle would be fine but I need nothing between my one hand and my stuff except a zipper. A pocket inside is preferred but the only pocket I require is an outer one big enough for a phone or car keys without having to lube them up first to get them in the tiny slot.
Doesn’t have to be leather. Other acceptable fabrics would be canvas or cotton, but no pleather. Too hot when it’s against my body. Makes my arm sweaty slippery. Oh and I need a handle strap(s) and a longer strap - either shoulder or cross body are fine - doesn’t matter.

Basically a Chloe Marcie bag that’s 90% off!

Seriously though, many many many designer bags for these criteria. Isn’t this what a lot of people are looking for?!

I feel like I’ve looked everywhere. Best I found criteria-wise was the madewell zip top transport tote but it was so boring to me I just couldn’t handle it.

Help!! And TIA!!

This is my favorite bag, it is incredibly comfortable to carry since it has thick handles. It's structured enough to stand up on its own, but also soft enough to fit comfortably under my arm. There are four exterior pockets, one zipped on each front and back, and two open pockets on the sides for water bottle or other things. I like putting my phone in one of the side pockets, easy to access. The designer used to work for Marc Jacobs.

So before a recommendation I am going to say the following…. I know it’s tempting to put a hand into your bag while driving but it is a distraction, more than you might think. Try to have everything you need out of your bag in advance. I am just thinking of your safety 😊

Now on to the fun stuff, yet the zipper is hard to find! But a tote I have found great for structure, size, durability and quality is the mulberry tote… unfortunately it doesn’t have a zipper but does have a clasp. The leather is thick so it stands up on its own and tucks under your arm very well. Price point while expensive is better value than most Mulberry bags… the one pocket is in the inside but easy to access and it is detachable. I hope this helps…

Oh yes 100% while driving. I’m thinking like… I need my chapstick at a stoplight and don’t want to look down or take more than 5 seconds while retrieving it. But yes absolutely point taken! Thank you!!

Checking link now before my 6am meeting! :happydance:

Here is a pic of my traveling with the bag recently. You can see the water bottle sticking out of a side pocket. ACS_0758.jpeg

I’ve forgotten who wanted this link to the Rag & Bone cardi. I was able to order the XXS and S. I would like to get my hands on an XS, but I’m not heartbroken if it doesn’t happen. The XXS arrived and it’s kind of just okay. The knit is fine, but it’s too short. It looks like a toddler sweater on me if I button it, but I’m tall. Although, I’m surprised the sleeves are long enough which never happens in XXS’s for me. The buttons are kind of flimsy for a $300 sweater. My small should arrive soon. Not going to stress over the XS.

It was me!! Thank you!! I like that the sleeves are long, that sounds nice, not sure about the length of the actual body tho as Im also tall... I may stalk still tho lol.

I work for a small company that makes handbags, so this feedback is SUPER helpful. Maybe we can work on creating your dream bag. :angel:

I recently purchased a Marimekko Carry All that checks some of your boxes. It's a great summer bag and fits a lot. Bonus is double-zipper (so you can wear as a lefty or a righty and zipper will run to YOUR front of THE bag). They may have other sizes (think there is a bucket as well) that may have more structure: Marimekko Carry All

Well, I am glad you got one. I just went ahead and bought a pair of sale underwear.
