I have a khakie coach tote and a black coach purse.
The tote is easier to deal with and the black one feels like luggage. But I am grateful for a thoughtful husband. I only take them when I go to a nice resturant...and I dont mean cheesecake factory! or a resort type hotel.
I watch nurses pile into my hospital each day with a purse, a insulated lunch bag AND a tote or backpack!! I wonder everyday what IS IN THERE????
I got the elevator with a guy the other day. His badge read cardiac monitor tech!!! He had a full carry on bowling bag type thing and a back pack!! I said...plan on spending the night??? lolol
If I cant put it in my pocket it stays at home!!!!!!
I have my blackberry on my waist.... lip gloss in one pocket and a little starbucks cash and a atm card and driver's lic in the other. If i cant put it in a zip lock and grocery bag for lunch i dont bring it. After lunch I throw everything away. NO plastic containers to wash and take home.
I like to keep it simple!!!
