My best friends for work are Lumineuse PM and Metis Hobo in empreinte, you can fit folders, laptop, bottle of water, wear them on your shoulder, in hand or crossbody and the best part is that they do not have any vachetta, so they are weather friendly!

I just saw someone out and about (in Center City, Philadelphia) with the new Flower Tote. Seemed like it could be another possible canvas tote option for work (but would probably be too small for travel)
 
I just thought about another one that I have been trying to find opinions on - it is called the "All-In" tote (LV). There is a club house on this bag, but it hasn't had many updates on it. It came out in October, and it is found in the Travel section on the LB website. Some referred it to the Neverfull with a zipper. The handles are flatter, and wider. It also can be folded. I'm really interested in this as it has a zipper. There are 2 sizes. I would like to go and look at this next time I am around an LV store.

The one gets heavy. I tried it when it first came out and passed. It’s large but doesn’t have the side structure that the NF has.

Great suggestions. I really like the look of the Flower Tote and the Metis Hobo. I also love the look of the Artsy.

I am just not sure how any of these will potentially work for what I need right now. I'll try to take a look this weekend. With all these great suggestions, I think I might need two LV bags!

Just wanted to follow up. I was in England for work this past week and stopped into the LV store in LHR on my way home. I’ve had a difficult time deciding so I stopped in just to have a look. I wasn’t expecting them to have what I’d ultimately want in stock anyway.

Fortunately, I had my overfilled work bag with me so it was a perfect time to shop for a proper bag to fit my needs.

Well, as you all could probably see in my refreshed avatar... I’ve gone with the Neverfull GM in Mono with the beige interior. Though the Pivoine was beautiful as well. And... as it turns out, it was made in France!

Now to order my organizer and take proper care of my vachetta. Thank you all for taking the time to post your thoughts and advice. I very much appreciated ever single post!
 
Beautiful choice! I have the same bag (except mon monogram). I use it much more than I expected to use it. I initially bought it just for travel, but it works well as an everyday bag as well. However, I don't tend to take it to meetings since it is a bit "over the top" for me with the LV monogram and my initials giant across the side lol. I usually take a YSL Sac de Jour (if no computer) or a Longchamp Roseau (if I have my MacBook). The Longchamp is gorgeous, spacious and totally understated yet elegant.

I've used the Neverfull for travel a couple of times so far and it has worked flawlessly. I actually put a large Le Pliage inside the Neverfull (takes up almost the entire thing) and I use that as my zippered "organizer". It allows room on the side of the le Pliage for water bottle, iPad, headphones, etc. while keeping everything small zipped up tight.
