8 Boss Bags Every Career Woman Needs This Spring

By In Her Shoes Contributor: Brianna Arps, @briannaarps

Because you mean business and so should your handbag…

Stepping into my latest role, one of the first shopping-related decisions I made (alongside a much needed wardrobe revamp) was to level up my purse game.

Living in New York, I’m rarely idle and spend the most time commuting; therefore, every bag I purchase these days must be a practical investment that works just as hard as I do or else it’ll only slow me down.

For those who either (a) share the same struggle or (b) crave a new addition to their collection, look no further – I got you covered with eight top picks perfect for the spring season!

Tote

Totes are large by nature and expandable, which means bringing a laptop, agenda/notebook plus several personal items with you won’t be a problem.

Always On Side Zip Regan Tote by Rebecca Minkoff ($295)

Femme Petite Mini Tote by KALU ($396)

Satchel

Double straps not only make satchels easy to carry but they also provide two stylish looks for the price of one.

Eiye-Ako Satchel by Minku ($480)

McClain Satchel by Gregory Sylvia ($369)

Bookbag

Mini backpacks are the latest adult spin on a school-yard staple, and multiple compartments make them great for staying organized.

Jetsetter Convertible Backpack by Henri Bendel ($278)

Crossbody

Free your shoulders from the stress of a crowded subway or train with a classic crossbody.

Suede Shoulder Bag by H&M ($59.99)

Bucket

Zippers often get stuck and can even break without warning. So, having a no-fuss drawstring option is super ideal.

Stacey Bucket Bag by Furla ($348)
