I am back with some feedback on using the Plume 32 as a work bag
In sentence: it works! It easily holds everything I need, including my laptop, and when I need to carry a jacket I just put it between the handles so it doesn’t have to go inside the bag. I also like that when I don’t zip it closed (I know, but it happens…) it folds together and is less “formal”. Perhaps it is because it is toile?
I don’t think that it for me will be a bag that could crossover and be a bag for non-work activities (sightseeing, shopping, museums), because I prefer an easier shoulder or crossbody carry option for that. Also it is a little big and formal for my taste. But for work, perfect. Especially with more laidback shoes like sneakers I feel that it balances well
And speaking of a Plume to wear outside of work - I may have bought a lovely Plume 20 for that…….

Everyone’s need - and working life - is different, but I really recommend the Plume. And yes, I do believe that color and material matters.Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m on, what feels like an eternal, hunt for the perfect work bag, and I’ve been considering the plume for some time. I like the classic design and the fact that it closes completely. But like you mentioned, it can feel a little formal. Perhaps I should look for a fun color, like yours!
Please share your experience with the 20 at some point, it looks fabulous too.
Looks fabulous with your outfits!I am becoming positively Plume mad! This new-to-me Plume 32 combines the bag that I now know work very well for me with a color that goes with a lot in my wardrobe, and vibrato. Need I say more?

Thank you, I think so tooAbsolutely LOVE the vibrato leather and the beautiful orange color scheme. Such a cheerful bag! Enjoy!
I really like this version because the handles are proportional to the body of the bag, unlike the older modelThrilled to be joining this club: managed to find a pre-loved Plume Mini II in Mysore and I’m smitten. It’s a great size for hands-free weekends out with the kids. Next I hope to add a 28 or 32 in a nice, rich brown or burgundy. Meantime, I’ll just have to ogle everyone else’s lovely Plumes.

Yes! I love that it’s almost like a baby version of your Volynka (which is simply, and without a doubt, stunning)I really like this version because the handles are proportional to the body of the bag, unlike the older model![]()
