OLEADA WORK BAG | Reverie Tote

[@sunjw0413]

it says "re plastic leather" on the site, and based on their own explanation its made of recycled plastic, no leather

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Thank you for the clarification. OLEADA makes bags with natural leather, as well as recycled leather, as well as from recycled plastic bottles. It looks like this Reverie tote is from recycled plastic bottles as part of their sustainability commitment. Pinning this comment at the top so others can see.

Had to do some research on this "plastic leather" and turns out just PU or PVC, which should not be priced like this

I think for today's age, it's missing a holder for tumbers/bottle water and the slot outside to put your phone is just waiting for a thief to steal it. Certainly, you can't walk in Paris with a bag designed for pick pockets with pouches on the both ends outside. The interior can do with more compartments for phone, pens, etc. I'd check out Dange Dover tote bags for work bags that are made for convenience with the right compartments. It's Daily Tote is far superior in terms of functionality and price point and looks similar to this. It is vegan leather though, and I'm still hoping to find more options for functional work bags.

This one is for the professional working women among you! 😊 I’d be curious to know, regardless if you work in a traditional office setting or not, what kind of work do you do? Please share below! It’s always very interesting to learn about the different occupations, businesses, projects and side hustles people are involved with! ❤

I’m 😊😊

Oh I love this design! I work in government and have public hearings where I’m constantly bringing files and paperwork. This would be gorgeous for that.

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Wow, sounds great for your line of work!

❤Bought the mini anchor bag with your discount code after watching your video. I am enjoying it and took the itch of buying the Loro Piana version.😊 This work bag looks huge and could be cumbersome in my city where commuting is packed with crowds. I am a HR manager in for 3 eldercare nursing homes and I really prefer a lightweight tote as I move around a lot. 😂

Hi Hannah! Love the design and the simplicity of this bag. I think this would make a good travel bag especially those that carry laptops like me and it’s wipeable (I assume from the scratch and water-resistant features)! This is a big plus for me! I also love the recycle program as nothing goes to waste 😆 Thank you for sharing!

[@hellocatwalkcity]

I’m glad you like it too! This bag makes me reminisce about my old office days and also when I used to do a lot of business travel. Really appreciate the multiple compartments and the luggage sleeve for travel, as well as the sustainability factor behind the recycled materials!

[@sahargulzar8657]

Thanks so much for this review. This had caught my eye on Instagram a while ago. And it looks perfect, well almost perfect. My issue is that when you have a bag so ravenous that is meant to carry so much, why not make the top handles slightly thicker and reinforce their stitching. I know if filled it to capacity, which knowing me I probably would, the handles would give up.

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Ah yes, it’s a spacious bag so there’s always that risk of stuffing it to the brim! 😅

[@saraalsinan8541]

Can the strap be adjusted to be worn as a shoulder bag and not cross body?

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Yes! I thought I included mod shots of both ways… but definitely, the strap adjusts to wear it on the shoulder.

I’ve seriously been on the hunt for a work tote bag so this came at a perfect time. I watched all your Chanel Cerf tote videos and currently have that as my #1 choice. Curious to know how it’s held up for you and if you still use it. I work in government and manage a team of 7 in contract management. My day revolves around meetings and I’m constantly having to carry my laptop from one place to another. Thank you for sharing this video. Will need to look into this brand now.

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Oh! I let go of my Chanel cerf tote a while ago. 😅 It was a bit heavy for a work bag, although so beautiful and polished-looking. Also, the nature of my work had changed at that time so I didn’t need such a bag. Thanks for sharing what you do for work! I love hearing about different occupations.

[@cecigmz]

I am kind of interested in the Wavia Bag. However, I have other things on my wishlist.

[@hellocatwalkcity]

“Kind of interested” tells me you’ve got other higher priority items on your wishlist so stick to your guns! 😂 😉

[@ShweMyaukMyauk]

Ah another influencer campaign starting to see others posting it. Watch out people!

[@Zombiepinup12]

Gosh that’s gorgeous!! I’ve been on the fence about the mini bag only because of the price tag 🤔 do you feel it’s worth it? I’d love your opinion!

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Oh, you’re asking about the mini anchor bag!! To be fair, it was gifted to me and I didn’t pay my own money for it, but I receive SO many compliments on it. Two of my friends said they were tempted to buy one for themselves after seeing mine. I really like how you can wear it multiple different ways and how it’s compact but fits so much! I also like the feel of the pebbled leather and the smooth zipper. It’s a great everyday bag and also great for travel. Hope that helps with your decision!

@@hellocatwalkcity thanks lady!! I appreciate it :)

[@anonymousanonymous-u9f]

Beautiful bag but seems like a traveling work bag not for metro city commuters. I can’t fancy carrying that much everyday on the train/bus. The bigger the bag, the more junk that goes in. My shoulders will hate me.

[@hellocatwalkcity]

Totally agree, this is for a commuter who drives to work or especially great for business travel, but not for those who commute by metro or walk the city blocks!
