Work vs Weekender- Need help please!!

[JudieH]

I cannot seem to find the post that compared Work vs Weekender (or perhpas it never existed and I am just losing my mind ).

Anyway, I am now considering one of the above to carry my laptop but also on the rare occassions when I travel. I actually do have a yoga retreat in September for a weekend Not sure if the Work is large enough to hold my stuff for a weekend so should I just go for a weekender??

Please help! Thanks!!!

If you want to use the bag for travel/gataway weekned trips, I recommend you getting a Weekender instead.

I have both of them(sorry, don't have a comparison pic)and Work is just too small for travel/weekend trips. If you're planning to double it as a travel bag, get a Weekender!

I use my Work mostly for work and shopping.
Hope this helps....and pls let us know what you'll be getting!

Thanks! That actually does help a lot. I was thinking of going with a Weekender but I should see one irl before I make up my mind.

Thanks again!!

Definitely go with the Weekender. The Work really isn't that big and would be too small for trips. I can't wait to see what you get. I'm dying for a WE.

Glad to be at your service!

Have you thought about what color you're going to get??

This is exciting! I love big bags

I may stop by the Short Hills Mall today and see if they have any Weekenders.

I don't know if this is against the rules (if it is, please edit this post!!) but where can I find one at a great price? I am not asking anyone to sell me their bags via pms- just to clarify!!

Thanks!

Toosh- no idea of the color yet. I would like something on the neutral side but still fun Like an anthracite.

Thanks guy!!! Girlie- I saw that weekender but it's white and I cannot do white bags

I am heading off shortly to the mall. Will let you know what I discover

Judie~ I just got a black weekender and just used her for the first time today!!! I LOVE it!!!! A weekender would be better then the work for travel and for a laptop. I have a black we and a black work. I will take comparison photo's for you in a bit.

I saw a Truffle Weekender at NM. It was HUGE!!! Lee thought it was big too but he said he sells a lot of them, especially to me. He said people use it as an every day bag.

I think it's just too big for me

I don't know. Why am I driving myself crazy over this??? I think I would get more use out of a Work than a Weekender.



Me confused.

Here is some more comparison pics !!!
I prefer the Work for an everyday use...but the WE is maybe better if you are carrying a lot of stuff and you want to use it occasionelly for WE...

 

[JudieH]

I need to figure it out. The fact of the matter is I don't really travel very much and when I do, I can just use my LV travel bag. I just, for some odd reason, only want to carry B Bags

I am leaning towards a Work. WE just seems too big for every day use.

Thanks for experiencing this saga with me
