How do you carry your stuff around?

Can you describe the interior pockets, or if it's not too much trouble, take a couple pictures? That bag caught my eye a few days ago, but the pictures on the site haven't sold me yet.

I carry my smaller stuff around in my pockets, and I also carry a briefcase for my laptop and paperwork...

i use this tumi york briefcase mostly:

for more casual use, I use a standard jack spade messenger bag

I know it isn't the most stylish but I use the Ogio Mastermind laptop backpack. for college and work i need function a lot more than style right now.

I prefer to use messenger bags. I think they have the best mix of function and style.

Adidas, Gola and Fred Perry all have their own versions of the shoulder zip bag.

For gym days I use this:

Problems: no size pocket for phone, wallet or keys... just a small second pocket inside which I have to use. Also a solid bottom with ridiculous little "legs," totally unnecessary. For other days I use this:

Problems: no handles.

With casual wear I use this messenger bag in nylon and leather from Felisi:

Re big brands and branding all over the place - I recently came across this: http://www.farfetch.com/shopping/men...m10010282.aspx and was very surprised that for a Nike bag, the branding was very subtle. Don't get it from farfetch though - I think the Nike UK sells them cheaper. Too bad they (Nike UK) don't ship to the US, and their US site doesn't have it...

What do you guys think of this bag?

I work in a business casual office, but occasionally wear suits on site with customers. The bag is from Saddleback Leather Co. in Texas. www.saddlebackleather.com

I like the top-handled totes because they don't crease your clothes, as a messenger strap will if you have things in it.

Totes are still stigmatized in the USA, but they are basically a larger, more easily filled and accessible briefcase with a larger drop on the handles. Not very girly, if you ask me, and smart way to carry your stuff.

Here's what I mean, something like:
Filson

or

Perry Ellis

or
Ferragamo

or
Louis Vuitton

Don't you have to wait a year and have a course of hormone replacement therapy before you can get those?

It's a Perry Ellis "Riverside" tote that might be available for purchase from their website. I think the retail was $175 or so, but you could probably get it on sale much cheaper if you call a Dillards or even check a TJ Maxx/Marshall's. EDIT: just found it on their website, marked down from the retail: http://www.perryellis.com/ped/catalo...0068&ccode=200 I'm usually NOT a Perry Ellis fan, as most of the stuff I've seen was junk, but I saw this bag in person and was really quite impressed. Very simple, no logos, sturdy canvas/leather, etc. A pretty good bag if you need something like that.
