Graduation is fast approaching and many promising new people will soon be entering the workforce. And what does a college grad need to get their career off to an organized start? A nice leather work tote, of course! So if you’re looking for a great new work bag, either for yourself or for someone you love, then check out the Julie K Robin Tote.

This extra large leather tote would be perfect for work. It is simple, but it also has a little bit of spunk to it (something I hear celebs such as Angelina Jolie and Drew Barrymore really like about this designer’s work). I think it would be perfect for a young person that doesn’t want to look too stuffy in the workplace.

What do you think about a bag within a bag? Might sound like nonsense to some, or like the latest and trendiest style to hit the purse world to others. Although Dolce & Gabbana isn’t the first house to present the bag-in-bag style, do meet their version, the ‘Miss Angie’ Shopper, new to their 2010 Cruise Collection.

I can see how you can sway either way of giving this a thumbs up or thumbs down. You might see this as one elegant and feminine shopper, or simply an expensive interpretation of a drawstring laundry bag within a flowery tote bag. From a distance, it might be difficult to distinguish that the material of choice is in fact leather throughout, from the clinched drawstrings to the exterior shopper.

The Derek Lam Nadia Leather Hobo is getting a lot of attention by many style savvy professionals. Rachel Zoe has lauded this bag on her blog and other fabulous bloggers are writing about this sharp and edgy bag. A fact that caught my attention after I started to research it! So, this review is definitely due for our readers! Others are lauding the beautiful, unique, soft and subtle hues of the tie-dye version for $3,950 at Derek Lam or the basic but sleek black version of this bag. However, the dark brown cognac color is the one that really spoke to me as a bag you could carry every day!

At first glance, I’m a tad bit reminded of the bag Anne Hathaway carried in Devil Wear’s Prada, but in reality it is a balanced bag with asymmetrical details. The off-kilter front pocket adds a wonderful graphic architectural element to this sophisticated vertical hobo styling. I adore the movement and softness of the tassle which is absolutely the perfectly length to balance the bag. Some tassles are overpowering and oversized for their bag but this one is just right in my humble opinion!

Ever since the See by Chloe line was introduced, I have never been much of a fan. To tell you the truth, some of the bags were just plain weird. In fact, I believe I once compared a See by Chloe bag to a toy that is made for horses. So you can imagine my surprise when I stumbled across a bag from See by Chloe that wasn’t… well, weird.

And I think I am prepared to go as far as saying it is a style that I could see myself actually wearing. Introducing the See by Chloe Funny Love Shoulder Bag!

I am giving a big ‘ole YES to mostly everything nude this season, or at least everything related to handbags, shoes and other accessories. I just absolutely love the neutral shades of tans and taupe’s and how perfectly they fit into your spring and summer wardrobe, effortlessly.

This giant beauty by Cynthia Vincent caught my eye for so many reasons; meet the Studded Kidsuede Grocery Tote. First of all, I’d say ‘grocery tote’ is a poor choice of name for this bag, as I imagine grocery totes to be not so high maintenance as this appears to be. Suede isn’t typically my first choice of textile when in search for a new handbag as it would look quite horrid just after a few wears, but I simply can’t deny how lovely it looks on this giant tote bag.
