There will never not be a need for durable shoulder bags. Women are busy and we need something that can handle our schedules, which is why a classic, no-frills bag of decent size and soft yet functional lambskin is the perfect necessity. This is why the Balenciaga Day Bag is hard to ignore.

Large bags can sometimes be cumbersome, but the design of the Day Bag is such that you’re the one wearing the bag, not the other way around. Instead of being overwhelming, its size is ideal. From meetings, to cocktails, to playtime, this is the bag that’s going to get you from sunrise to sundown.

But don’t make the mistake of thinking utilitarian means boring. If you want a versatile bag suitable for work and play, you have the option of going for timeless black or choosing from a unique color palette. Add a pop of color to the boardroom and snag it in Mauve (which is actually more of a light lilac) or Curry.

We love the easy single shoulder strap and the simple details in the tassel zippers and few buckle accents. This is a bag that doesn’t get bogged down in pointless bells and whistles—instead, it depends on its simplicity and utility to win your heart. We’re going to bet it will succeed.
