hi all! so, i keep thinking that i want a new tote for work that i can fit a slim laptop in, along with a clutch with my CCs, money, etc. and a few files. it would be easier than lugging around my laptop rollbag when i'm flying from place to place to place which i'll be doing about 1-2x per month.
earlier this year i bought this bag and returned it thinking it was too bag. now i think it might be perfect.
its a foley & corinna jet setter jr in grey. i'm not really finding anything else out there that i'm liking. i did see a girl at one of my salon events with a silver tory burch tote that was leather and that big logo of hers was just embossed so it wasn't overly noticeable but other than that (and my BF's gucci tote) i haven't seen much. i want to stay in the $500 or less range. bonus if you can find something at nordstroms b/c i have a couple of GCs and $ from my birthday to spend.
Here's some choices from Nordstrom (not really a lot to choose from):
Kenneth Cole Layover Tote in Ash $368 (also comes in black and espresso) Dimensions: 18"W x 13"H x 9"D Bag sits under arm. Strap drop: 8"
Kate Spade belmont-malva bucket bag $495 Dimensions: 14 1/4"W x 12"H x 7"D Bag sits under arm. Strap drop: 8"
and my favorite, Botkier Gladiator Tote $695 (sorry it's a bit more than your budget) Dimensions: 14"W x 14"H x 4"D; 6 1/2" strap drop (comes in black as well, but this one is so pretty!)

i'm gonna stop by nordies this afternoon to see if they still carry the foley jet setter- the last time i was there they only had the other one (i forget the name of it but you guys prolly know what i'm talking about).
