Rebecca Minkoff makes the best bags. I have four, including one I carry almost every day, and I’m impressed with their durability. This week, RM is having an online sample sale. Here are five bags, under-$200 that bring a lot of style to the party.
*Love the sleek lines of this bag.
This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
I like the bags and have one, and agree they are durable. I just cannot stand the danglers-they add nothing to the design in my opinion-they weaken it if anything. I took mine off.
I have had terrible luck with the. The leather piping around the bottom of my MAB wore thin and poked out and the strap on a work tote I have broke after two months. I am not impressed with the durability and I did not carry either of these every day.
Agree. I had a Jules satchel that I carried every day. The metal connector on the shoulder strap wore through four months in. I sent it off to have it repaired once, but when it wore through again six months later I just decided I was done with the bag and RM. It was a beautiful bag, though.
I totally agree!!! I have the bowery tote, thankfully I got it for cheap or I would be more annoyed, and the leather has worn really strangely. It’s gotten almost patchy even though it’s never been in the rain.
The link to the Regan Satchel doesn’t seem to be working. If I am able to find it I think I will get it though!
Fellow readers – any suggestions for work bag and law school graduation present from brands other than Rebecca Minkoff? Will be working in Midwest public sector (in court more often than not), so nothing too high-end, budget up to $500. I’ve tried and ruled out Lo & Sons, Dagne Dover and MZ Wallace. Thanks for any suggestions!
I like the Michael Kors bags. Henri Bendel also makes a decent bag.
I found my favorite bag, which is a Tory Burch, at Nordstrom rack for like $250. I do NOT like her York tote- I have it and it got floppy really fast, but I’ve had good luck with others.
Thank you both!
I’m surprised by the wear & durability issues posted. The only comment I support is the ridiculous dangling leather strips. I removed mine, as well. I have at least 4 RM bags and I’ve had no issues.
