My trainer wasn’t too happy when he found out I was lugging around my laptop and other essential work tools in an oversized tote slung over one arm…Especially when I demonstrated the angle at which I have to tilt at the waist to balance the weight of the bag! His suggestion was getting a backpack which makes sense but my brain always goes to the big L.L.Bean backpackI had in elementary school and I can’t seem to be able to envision a chic alternative. But lo and behold, and hail Opening Ceremony, I’ve found just that — Steve Mono’s Nicholas school briefcase. It’s a great mix of structure, function and style.
