Dear Bag Snob,I am a young University Professor, I am looking for a bag that will carry all of my books and papers while still looking fierce. I don’t want to look too young with a backpack, or too aged with a briefcase. What do you recommend? Thanks!ShawnaDear Shawna,Now that everyone is gearing up to go back to school, we have been getting a lot of questions about the perfect bag for students, as well as professors like yourself. You are absolutely right, who in their right mind would show up post high school with a backpack? And unless you are wearing a tweed coat with leather elbow patches, you should not even own a briefcase!! We of course have the perfect bag for you and it’s from one of our favorite designers, Lanvin. This suede messenger is super functional and is as fierce as they come without being overly frivolous and fussy for campus life. The flap closure makes your life easier and the short strap keeps you from looking like an actual messenger. In fact, the length of the strap is what makes this bag for me. The obvious thing to do would be to make this into a over the shoulder bag, but you lose the chic, on-the-go style. The size is great for books and papers at 15″ x 19″, not so big that it would topple you but adequate for most books (at least the ones that I read =) You can get it at Barneys for $1380.Love,The Bag Snob
