After eighteen months on a mommy sabbatical, I'm going back to work. I have been looking all over for a new work bag. I need something light weight, stylish and big enough for lots of files. Shoulder bags and messenger bags kill my shoulders, so I'm thinking a rolling bag or some kind of backpack may be best. Any suggestions?

It's hard to make a wheelie bag work--unless you're a pharmaceutical rep. But this backpack/wheelie bag by Stella McCartney for LeSportsac might do the trick. If you're open to do something like a hand-held tote, we also love the Jet Setter, Jr. by Foley + Corrina. It's a great-looking option that can be hand-held without dragging on the ground. Good luck back on the job!

Where can I get a Mary Poppins-style bag to use a prop for a show?

–George

This was a fun one! At first we thought about a canvas tool bag but once we realized what Mary Poppins carries is called a carpet bag, we found exactly what you're looking for!

I want to buy our babysitter a new bag but she doesn't wear leather. All the things I've seen online are kind of nasty--do you know of any places where the bags are kind of stylish?

How about a cool bag from LeSportsac? We totally love them--so many choices of styles and colors. But if it's "leather" you're after...Mooshoes probably has the best looking bags around and unless you got close enough to smell, you wouldn't even think about the fact that they're vegan.
