Fashion is easiest to talk about when it’s fun. Bags that will be used in the evening or on weekends can be small, highly detailed, brightly colored–anything you want them to be! Most of us, though, spend a lot of times hauling around a bag that has to be large, functional and neutral, because that’s what our professional lives require.
Bags that match that description can be had at almost any price point, but in my mind, the sweet spot for most people interested in designer accessories is probably somewhere in the three figures. That’s enough to get you a beautiful bag that feels well-made and luxurious, but it’s also reasonable enough that it might not blow your budget for something a little more fun to use in your off-hours. Below, check out ten bags in that range that we totally love.

Bleh! so boring!
that’s work for most people, I guess…
Sadly it is. Cannot wear luxury at work, since the company then thinks they pay too much and clients and coworkers are carrying crappy bags.
Why even get a bag… you’re just paying money to fit in. Which is a sort of investment when it comes to the land of corporate politics, I suppose!
everlane petra’s are missing!
I thought that, too. Cuyana needs to be on this list, too.
Was thinking the same thing!
Lovely collection
I love my Michael Kors Jet Set Tote. It’s the perfect work bag, everything fits!
The Vince tote is beautiful.
Awesome Collection…
