5 Beautiful, Practical Laptop Bags For Your Hybrid Work Life

If you’re in the market for something smaller that can still accommodate a 10-inch tablet, you’ll love the Cadence shoulder bag. SENREVE is known for its highly functional bags beloved by professional women. With its structured silhouette, this new style is meant to add polish to your outfit, but it is also very practical. It can be worn as a crossbody, over the shoulder, or as a clutch, when you take off the strap entirely. But while it seems very compact, I was surprised its spaciousness; the bag could accomodate everything from novels to a makeup bag to snacks. I also liked that it had a large exterior pocket that fit a phone or a tablet, for easy access.

Best luxury bag: Senreve Maestra Bag

Brace yourself to be approached by inquiring minds wanting to know where your bag is from. The Maestra is a convertible tote that began trending on the basis of just how adaptable its structure is.

T&C Tried & True: The Senreve Aria Élevée Belt Bag Is the Most Versatile Purse You'll Ever Own

Senreve is a luxury label that prides itself on designing sleek silhouettes that can be converted into various other styles. The best-selling Maestra backpack is the brand's best-seller, but the one that caught my eye when I was doing my research was the Aria Élevée Belt Bag. The purse is structured and made of genuine pebbled leather in Italy that's scratch, stain, and water-resistant, and it features the most elegant gold metal buckle with a magnetic closure for easy access.

But this chic little number is more than just a looker; it's the most functional piece around. The Aria comes sold as a belt bag, but it can also be turned into four other different silhouettes just with the change of the strap. I repeat: You can wear the Aria Élevée in four different ways: as a sling, shoulder bag, crossbody, and clutch. How convenient is that?

Jessica Alba Is the Latest Celebrity Mom to Wear This Trendy Bag Style

While most belt bags are made from nylon and have a soft, unstructured body, Alba’s is made from pebbled leather with gold hardware and has a cool boxy shape that looks more like a modern purse than an ’80s fanny pack.

The Senreve bag, which we’ve also seen on stars like Kristen Bell, has an adjustable strap that makes the bag multifunctional, transforming to be worn four ways. At $495, it isn’t cheap. But the many ways to wear it provide value (and it seems like a great style to bring on vacation!).
