The Commuter Tote

My girlfriend Elana asked me the other day about which brands make the best commuter tote. She spends her weeks commuting from NYC to Tarrytown and needed a great versatile bag that meets the following qualifications: laptop friendly, straps that are easy on the shoulders, and of course stylish. The best part of her email is that price point didn't matter as she was willing to splurge based on overall cuteness.

Check out a plethora of great black totes that I found that range in price point - most are all reasonably priced, but some are break the bank worthy. Which one is your favorite?
