Promising reviews: "Brought mine on my first business trip of the year, and I LOVE IT! Size = perfect, handle length = perfect, outer pockets for passport and hotel room key = perfect, durable and looks fab = perfect! Great job!" —Lisa

"First of all — the bag is beautiful. It's beautiful to look at and beautiful to carry around. You'll get compliments. Second — it's incredibly sturdy and well-constructed. Great size, too — not too big, but just big enough to carry your laptop and all the baby stuff. Tons of large and small pockets to keep your lipstick, chapstick, pens, and moisturizers all organized. The straps are a highlight — use one for single-shoulder strap or two for backpack. YES, it's comfortable when worn as a backpack. Third — the leather quality is impressive. I spilled a matcha latte on my bag and nearly cried. One baby-wipe later, it looks brand new. Accidents happen, but the Transform tote is prepared! Did I mention that my peony bag came with adorable little pink feet?" —Phoebe

Promising review: "Bought for a beach trip, and it was also perfect in the airport. Space for my phone, easily accessible cards, and an extra pocket for my pill container and lip balm! It’s durable and compact, also pretty sturdy — I hung my sandals from the strap while beach-combing and didn’t give them a second thought." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in 38 colors and three styles).

Promising review: "I love this bag. It’s cute and has so much room inside! I used it as a carry on for plane rides a few times now. I’ve been able to fit my curling iron, make up, a sweater, wallet, sunglasses, some shower stuff, and more — it’s so roomy. And it zippers shut which is a plus. I got beige and really love it but I am not sure how to wash it without messing it up. I would probably go back and get black. It’s canvas material so dirt doesn't stick to it. I may buy black in the future." —jen6209

Promising review: "Great bag. I bought the bag to use for my laptop and other things for when I travel. I used it this week to go to New York, it held my laptop and chargers, my wallet, my Kindle, wallet, and earphones, and shoes for changing when I got to the office. I put some smaller things in the pouch that I used to have in a zipper pouch in the side of another laptop bag I had. This was so much better and stylish and not heavy. Held up well for travel." —Carol Kennedy

Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

Promising review: "This bag is gorgeous. I’ve gotten lots of compliments on it. It’s a soft vegan leather and the color is very pretty. Lots of pockets, spacious and durable. I love how versatile this bag is. I use this for college and carry a ton and it all fits nicely. Im also able to transition to a purse and diaper bag. It does come with a messenger strap so you’re able to wear this over the shoulder which I love. It’s perfect for what I need. Great quality for the price. My only wish is that the lining was lighter, to make it easier to see items that are at the bottom of the bag. Other than that I highly recommend this bag." —Veronica
