Update: eBags has another 20% off sale going on right now — it's valid sitewide, which should include this bag. Wild Wednesday: Extra 20% OFF at eBags.com

I love this bag! But it seems a little farmers marketish to me. I would definitely get this as a weekend bag and would use it for casual days, but it may not work for the most formal offices.
Sorry for the multiple posts, but I just checked the website and the reviewer said she sometimes puts her laptop in it. Swoon. If only the main pouch closed instead of being an open top. Or if only I was organized enough to not have a bunch of loose junk in my bag floating around that would go flying out without a top closure. But I may just need this bag anyway. . . .
Beautiful bag. Agree that I probably wouldn’t bring it to work though, but definitely for weekends.
i love this bag, but i could never justify carrying it to the office, considering how many more appropriate bags i already have (bought exclusively for work use)
