The Longchamp Le Pliage tote is as classic as a Burberry trench coat. These bags are a great investment in my opinion, and as far as designer bags go, they are definitely on the lower end of the price spectrum. The Le Pliage will hold everything you need, whether you are a student using it to carry books or a mom using it as a diaper bag! I have one that I have used for two years and it still looks new. It’s the perfect carry-on for traveling and equally as perfect for an every day bag. I really like this expandable version – it’s two bags in one! And of course I love the fact that it’s on sale at Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale! The Le Pliage rarely goes on sale, so bag this deal while it’s still goin’ on!

I love the pink and white contrast on this Diane von Furstenberg tote. The blue one’s nice too, but I’m really feeling the pink one right now. It’s actually leather, too. I thought it was a fabric tote until I took a closer look. Leather = even better! (It also justifies the price a tad). This is great as a cross-body tote because the top handles fold down and it almost looks like a messenger bag. If you need to fit more stuff in there, forget the detachable long strap and just use the tote handles!
