35 Work-Appropriate Carriers

From Minimalist Menswear Totes to Globetrotting Briefcases

— July 25, 2013 — Lifestyle
When it comes to dressing up for work, choosing a bag that is practical and visually appealing is key, which is why these work-appropriate carriers are offering up some great options for travelling to work in style.

Changing up your handbag based on where you're going and what you're doing is often an ordinary predicament for most women, and if you're looking to carry something a bit more professional and sophisticated to the office, then these work-appropriate carriers will certainly provide some great choices. While flamboyant colors and eclectic patterns may be suitable handbag designs during weekend excursions or fun night outs, presenting yourself professionally at a work place often means having accessory pieces that are business-appropriate as well.

From distressed leather carriers to sleek notebook bags, these work-appropriate carriers will definitely have you looking sophisticated no matter where you go.
