You wouldn’t have to ask me twice to add this glamorous Suede Briefcase Bag by Mata Hari to my wardrobe. I can already tell it would be a major player with almost everything I own, and certainly would be large enough to hold most of my necessities. It does slightly resemble a schoolbag, but that’s a small price to pay for carrying a bag that exudes as much sophistication as this. Available for $189 at Pixie Market.
With the Chance Briefcase, Rebecca Minkoff once again takes on the typical masculine aesthetic and puts an entirely new spin on menswear-inspired style. This so-called “briefcase” is more of a sturdy satchel, dressed up in leather that’s been textured to resemble ostrich skin (and quite a nice bit of work it is). A studded handle and brass hardware that blends right into the warm blushing-tan leather complete the look beautifully. This is exactly the type of bag I’d love to carry to the office. Available for $495 at Revolve Clothing.
I don’t know what rock I’ve been living under, because I only recently found out about Jack Spade, the yang to Kate Spade‘s yin. But it was a good time to discover this sharp menswear line, because they’re offering an extra 25% off sale items with coupon code DOTHEMATH until January 25. If you’re looking for a bag for your well-dressed man, consider the Jack Spade Buffalo Check Swiss Brief with Flap; this trendy plaid briefcase has equal amounts of polish and spunk, which sounds rather in line with what you’d expect from Kate. This bag is $207.19 with coupon at Jack Spade.
Not sure what to give your guy this Christmas? If he’s the professional type, then he’s bound to love this leather Ben Minkoff Harry Computer Brief! It features genuine leather, crisp matte black hardware, 4″ drop leather handles, an adjustable cross-body strap, cotton lining, and a secure padded laptop compartment. Grab one for that special man in your life from Rebecca Minkoff for $550.
In case you hadn’t noticed, we’re really big on women’s purses around here. Really big. But sometimes it’s nice to show a little love to accessories for guys, such as this handsome Cambridge Messenger Brief. It’s the perfect holiday present for a new grad embarking on a soon-to-be high-profile career. Although a little pricey, it’s a great splurge, as the gorgeous leather and antiqued brass hardware are sure to look even better with wear. It’s a dignified piece for a dignified gentleman. Available at Levenger for $399.
Now this is a thing of beauty. Designed by River Island, a label that creates upscale-looking pieces at relatively pedestrian prices, the Brown Snake Briefcase is at once edgy and practical. It accomplishes the feat surprisingly easily, simply by pairing a bold print with an understated color that is really far more interesting than plain old brown. It’s more of a golden, bronze-tinged brown. Most striking is the sturdy metal handle, which just looks like it means business. And you can, too, for just $39.65. Amazing! Find it at ASOS.
What do you do when your guy really needs something to carry his stuff in, but a) he thinks he’s too cool for a briefcase and b) he’s a bit put off by the label “man purse“? You can guide him in the direction of this Chiarugi Leather Messenger Bag. With its solid construction and interior pockets galore, it’s an ideal investment for that up-and-coming professional. Yet it’s still rugged enough that no one will mistake it for a lady’s accessory. Available at Forzieri for $515.
