the career bag

They’re definitely great; all those it-bags. ‘But which bag should I get now that I have a corporate job with a very appropriate salary?’ is a question that has popped up in our mailbox quite often. So yes, if you’re a real go-getter with a busy agenda, a lot of business meetings and lunches, a good bag is essential. Take it from me (I’m speaking out of experience), people will take you more seriously if you carry around a designer piece.

But which bag is appropriate? Here is a list of bags that will match your new job title perfectly, without being seasonal. Bags in bold colors and with striking logos should be avoided.

What you want is a modest bag made out to leather with a nice finish  that you will be able to enjoy for years. And who knows, maybe in a years time you’ll treat yourself to another one so you can switch them off, because iconic bags never go out of style.
