I have gotten so many requests for work totes I thought I would finally do a review on my favorite three brands that you can choose from!

The Best Totes for Work

Dagne Dover- $125-265

Dagne Dover is one of my FAVORITE brands when it comes to duffle bags and work totes. Their work totes are amazing. The quality is excellent, they have a great structure to them, and they look so sleek.

I like the Classic  Tote the most. It isn’t as big as the Legend Tote but will still fit everything you need (laptop size 13″ or smaller). You will want to grab the Legend if you are carrying around a massive laptop! I am wearing the black onyx Classic Tote in the photos above.

There are tons of compartments in both totes that will hold everything in place for you! I especially love the drink holder!

As I mentioned above, I am also a huge fan of their duffle bags! If you don’t have to carry a laptop you could throw your gym clothes in here and still look stylish for work! Dagne Dover makes these with 100% neoprene (think scuba gear!) The bigger size is also an amazing overnight bag!

They are currently having a Sample Sale on select colors of their most popular bags. See the full list HERE.

Street Level- $49

I own four of these Street Level totes in all different colors. They typically release new colors throughout the year. This is such an amazing tote for the price and it will still last you forever! I also think the straps are super comfortable on your shoulders!

Did I mention these are reversible? So for under $50 you are really getting two totes!

I would go with the cognac/black option because it will go with everything!

It doesn’t have the compartments that the other two have but it does come with a attached wallet with a zipper that you can throw your money and cards into!

Street Level:

Gigi New York- $49

I was recently asked for the best STYLISH tote brand for travel, work, andddd going out use. I would definitely say Gigi New York! Their totes are soooo pretty! You could easily take this tote from work to happy hour or out to brunch one morning. It is also super stylish for travel as well!

I am actually using the tote above as a diaper bag, but love knowing it can be used for all of those other purposes as well! It is really a do-all handbag! It has two different pockets on either side and a zippered section down the middle for your valuables.

Did you see the giveaway I am doing on Instagram? Find it HERE. I am giving one lucky winner one of these totes or a $250 gift card to Gigi New York! Head there now to enter before it ends!

I am wearing the Teddy Tote here, which comes in croc or pebbled leather, but they also have the Taylor Tote (it zips completely shut)!!

Last but not least- for $15 you can get yours monogrammed!
