bag lady

Let's not mince words: I absolutely love the L.A.M.B Oxford Doctor Bag. 

In my dreams, I'm prancing through a meadow, holding this bag while woodland creatures serenade me to the tune of "this shit is Bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S."  

I've been searching high and low for a sample in Seattle, with no luck. 

BUT, tonight I stumbled across an ideal replacement at Banana Republic, the Sutton straw laptop tote. Similar construction and style, with 2 added bonuses: 1) it is perfectly sized and padded for my MacBook and 2) it costs a fraction of what the L.A.M.B. bag costs. 

Sold. (Sorry, Gwen)
