This is my first post in the MK forum after much lurking and admiring of all of your gorgeous bags.

I am a teacher and am currently looking for a school bag for the upcoming school year. My tote must go over my shoulder and has to hold a 13 inch Macbook Pro, my lunch, files, wallet and makeup bag. I am currently deciding between the Medium Jet Set tote and the Extra Large Jet Set tote that is currently in the Nordstrom anniversary sale. I would love it if any of you have any experience with either of these totes or any opinions as to which would be a more practical choice.

Thanks in advance!

I just got the med travel tote and its an amazing bag and the size is terrific with a 17" base and can be wore on the shoulder it's great! Just for fun I seen last night what I could place in it... First off my 15" laptop went right in with no problem then I also placed my iPad 3 with a swivel case on it right beside the computer then I folded a cardigan and placed it in as well with plenty of room for a makeup case wallet cellphone and keys... Plus were there is no lining to get dirty and the leather perfectly treated for easy cleaning makes it even that much better for ever how I would want to use the bag ... As a purse or to travel! :D

Thanks for the response! How are your handles holding up? That is my only concern about the travel tote given that I plan to tote tons of stuff.
