This bag - just wow. It looks so cute, is made so well, and darn if it isn’t a veritable Mary Poppins bag in terms of how much fits in it comfortably. I streamlined the THREE bags I used to carry on my commute down into this puppy, and there’s still room to spare. It’s a genius use of space. And still sits comfortably on my shoulder without sticking out a mile even when completely full (a real bonus for the crowded transit portion of my commute). I’m able to fit my laptop and charger, phone and charger, kindle, earbuds, notebook, lunch (!), small wristlet purse, plus room for pens, hand sanitizer, lipgloss, and keys, AND there’s that handy external side pocket for my coffee tumbler. This is commuter bag nirvana - buy it!!!
I had been struggling with finding the right bag to transport my computer to work. The last bag I had was driving my brain insane each time I had to pull things out. This has calmed my daily annoyance and turned it into joy with its cute design and quality materials
Great quality. Tons of space. Beautifully made. I absolutely love my Mendocino (mushroom) Maika tote! It makes the perfect bag to hold all of my bits and pieces for work in the ER.
I absolutely love my new Commuter Tote in Waxed Hunter Green. It has more than enough room and then some! The fabric is sturdy and I really like that I can use the handles or put the long strap over my shoulder to free up my hands for other things. Great company that I look forward to purchasing from again and again!
This tote is exactly what I need for a work bag and I am in love with the print design. It has enough pockets and space for all my daily stuff, chords/mouse for laptop, and plenty of room for my laptop. The only thing I would suggest for improvement is to have the laptop space padded on both sides instead of just the inner divider. I can work around that though so I still give 5 stars.
I was looking for a fun and stylish bag to replace my conservative brown leather briefcase, and this tote has proved to be perfect. It is far more roomy than I had anticipated, allowing me to carry my laptop and 3-5 legal files to and from work everyday. There is a shoulder strap plus double handles (which also fit over my shoulder, if desired). The product quality is outstanding, with a sturdy top zipper and durable fabric. The Tansy pattern is colorful and classy. I truly love this bag and could not be more pleased.
I absolutely love this mini tote. It’s so versatile and I can use it as shoulder , crossbody or handheld bag. I love all the compartments it offers for my things to stay organized and the pattern has a lot of pop. I have been enjoying it as I go out and do errands and been getting a lot of compliments on the patterns.
Got the purse as a Christmas gift. Purchased the matching bags to use with it. Haven’t used yet as I live in the Midwest and it’s more of a fair weather item. I can say I love the look and size of the bags.
