Finding a work bag is no easy task. There is always something wrong… too girly, too small, too Ann Taylor, too about-last-night.. too cheap looking, too many pockets, not enough pockets…you get the idea. Well, in addition to all the great shoes, belts and handbags this season brings the patent leather tote: the perfect bag for work. Shiny and stylish, it looks professional and polished without making you look like a working girl circa 1980… Besides, we all need something cute to remind us of life outside the cubicle.
