They are easy to organize inside with 3 pockets which can be used for stashing phone, change, or your lipstick. There’s a clip for your keys and an inner zipper compartment.

I want this tote bag! It’s classy enough to withstand all the seasons, the office and a dinner date. It’s functional too — it can accommodate most laptops and has tons of pockets for cables, files, magazines, cell phones, iPods, Blackberrys, make-up and whatever else you can think of!
It’s made of eco-friendly linen and trimmed with vegan leather. Inspired by the shape of calla lilies, you can get this bag in Oatmeal with Coral Rose Lining (pictured) or Black with Turquoise Lining!
It’s $209.00 from the Greenloop. A little pricey, but it’ll last and last and last…….
