I am looking for a somewhat structured tote bag for work. I am currently using a Michael Kors leather tote and like it, but it is starting too look a little beat up. I am open to both designer and non-designer bags. Thanks for the help.
 
Me too! I'm also looking for a large tote bag, preferabably with a shoulder strap and not too heavy. Yesterday, I tried on Hayden Harnett's Ibzia nylon tote (in violet) but my friend said it looked too much like a garmet bag. Plus, the SA commented that the bag was bigger than me. So I'm still looking... (And please, no Coach because it's so ubiquitious!) Thanks!
 
I use a black Anya Hindmarch Carker for work - it's big enough to fit a laptop, documents and lunch and it's also quite sturdy. I've taken it overseas for work and it's a great traveller.

Have you considered the Longchamp Le Pilage tote? On the deals and steals thread, there is a link to the magnums.net preferred customer sale of a couple of the Le Pilage totes. But the sale ends tomorrow (August 18th).
 
I like the Tod's coated canvas G-Bags. The leather totes are nice as well, but the coated canvas is lovely...I guess it would also depend on if you're business casual or suited up!
 
Not a "brand" but she does lovely work, judging from feedback:

Non-designer but judging from the feedback, I think this might be worth considering (although the two bags below are satchels rather than totes):
