(I'm a sucker for Kate Spade bags, though, and honestly, I had my eye on that bag this whole season but couldn't talk myself into it because I already have a good black tote and the other color combos didn't appeal to me.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1122423 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 16:31:49 +0000 Carla 1122423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#7 is a great looking gym bag! I use a gym bag every day, and a purse/ bag as well. Gym bag for gear ( shoes, gym clothes, towel, toiletries) and sometimes a pair of work shoes and a lunch bag. Purse/ bag for everything else, and big enough for iPad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1122410 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 15:42:51 +0000 Anonymous 1122410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Voting for #1 here. But I really like #8 too - might make going to work more fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1122408 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 15:38:16 +0000 carambola 1122408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorites are 3 and 4. Love the simplicity. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1122405 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 15:31:44 +0000 Vildy 1122405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm considering it from another angle.&nbsp; You often see guys with nice gym bags but women tend to carry very big handbags, as pictured.&nbsp; Why not the spiffy gym bag version with a clutch (strap optional) inside? After all, shoes, mat, even lunch, is gear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1122398 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 15:13:48 +0000 Susie 1122398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From the main contenders list, I like #3 best. But I also like both of the wild cards. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121669 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 18:31:29 +0000 Jewell 1121669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving #3 the most- beautiful shape and simple styling. There's always a risk of growing tired of zippers, buckles, bows and similar embellishments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121639 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:27:13 +0000 merwoman 1121639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What it lacks in size, it makes up for in price!<br />I checked out the Steve Madden - but it looks too big for me...but maybe I just need to try it on in person. Thanks for posting it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121624 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:07:08 +0000 Emily 1121624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Merwoman, that Kate Spade bag is lovely! &nbsp;I eyed it but it is not big enough to hold my stuff. &nbsp;:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121622 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:06:19 +0000 catgirl 1121622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually love 7 - practical, different and cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121621 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:05:32 +0000 merwoman 1121621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This one.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121618 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:02:55 +0000 merwoman 1121618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>8. It;s been on my radar for a few weeks she sighed, wiping the drool from her keyboard.<br />oops just read that is it Steve Madden. Looks identical to Kate Spade...will have to check it out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121613 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 16:56:57 +0000 Catnip 1121613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shape of #3 appeals to me.&nbsp; I'll be following what everyone else says, since I'm also shopping for a black satchel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/big-bags---which-is-fabbest#post-1121584 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 16:29:02 +0000 Emily 1121584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My Kate Spade Zebra Tote has served me well for the few days of week I carry it to work - it fits my lunch and a change of shoes perfectly, or&nbsp;I can cram in my lunch and yoga clothes and balance my yoga mat on top. &nbsp;For winter I'd rather have a bag that zips up, and a bit more space can't hurt.</p> <p>Soooo I have earmarked a chunk of my bonus for a stylish alternative and&nbsp;compiled a shortlist of big satchel-type bags. &nbsp;They all offer a bit more room than my current Kate Spade and&nbsp;winged shapes are conducive to balancing a yoga mat.</p> <p>Which do you think is most stylish?</p> <p>Contenders:<br />1. &nbsp;Milly Riley Tote<br />2. &nbsp;Jessica Simpson Hadley Satchel<br />3. &nbsp;DKNY Saffiano Satchel<br />4. &nbsp;Michael Kors Tippi Satchel<br />5. &nbsp;Milly Colby Tote<br />6. &nbsp;Kate Spade Beau</p> <p>Wildcards:<br />7. &nbsp;oGorgeous Gym Bag in Black Sparkle - excellent for&nbsp;function as my yoga mat can slide through the pocket on the front, though maybe too gearish?<br />8. &nbsp;Steve Madden BKarlee - perfect size and excellent price, though the colour may not be versatile enough...</p> <p>What do your eyes say? </p>
