In theory, I’m a small bag person. A tube of lipstick and my metro card and I’m out the door. But in real life here in New York, I’ve become a small bag + tote bag exploding with odds and ends person. Not exactly the chic ‘lady on the go’ persona I’d like to exude. Insert Dagne Dover. This Mini Tote bag arrived last weekend and in 3 short days has totally transformed my work day routine. From the outside it’s boxy, streamlined and anything-but-boring blue. From the inside? It’s an organized dream. There are compartments for my water bottle, cell phone, tablet/e-reader (but because I’m secretly 80 years old this is where I’ve started storing my books instead), lipstick, keys, and every other essential you wish you had with you on a daily basis. Which for me – means bobby pins and statement earrings – both a surefire fix when you need an after hours spruce up. So while I love the idea of flitting around town with a tiny bag, the feeling I got from knowing I was carrying everything I needed for the day (and exactly where it was all stashed) has me converted.

Hi! How are you finding the bag after using it this long? Does it still look good?
