Our daily TPS reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.
We know it's been around a while, but we still love it and kind of think it's approaching “classic” territory — the YSL Muse. We particularly like it in this lovely gray, currently available at Bluefly. The soft leather… the shoulder straps that sit comfortably… the bag big enough for all of your business papers… it's just a great bag. This gray one is now $1,516 (was $1,895).

As of 2026, some of our latest favorite luxury work bags (large enough to hold papers and a laptop!) include Métier, Veronica Beard, Kaai, DeMellier, Bottega Veneta and Mulberry. Of course, note that a lot of our readers who are in big jobs note that they love their (more affordable) Lo & Sons bags, as well as their Tumi.

This is one of those great colors that looks great with every color, yet is conservative enough for those who cannot rock a pop of color. A black bag just lacks style and confidence. Excellent choice!
