Chelsea Convertible Nylon Backpack

I’ve been searching for the perfect city bag — something big enough to carry my iPad when I’m running around with my daughter, but not a huge tote. I work from home but love having my iPad with me at her gymnastics class or when I pop into a coffee shop to work. Most bags felt too bulky or too small, but this one is absolutely perfect. I usually wear my Clare V Grand Fanny, but when I need my iPad, this will be my new go-to.

This bag has helped me immensely. Easy to carry as a backpack, allowing me to cart multiple items into my office from my car. The many compartments keep me very organized. I love that I always know where to find my earbuds (small zipper) and have plenty of purse extras in larger pouch, allowing me to carry smaller purses. The inside is perfect for my spiral calendar (yes, I know, old school) and I keep spare supplies in final outside zipper. The inside has more pockets with my spare reading glasses fitting nicely, even when store inside a case. I LOVE this bag and LOVE this brand as I have 3 other MZ Wallace bags too.

I’ve been a fan of MZ Wallace since their early launch, and have owned several bags. This bag is a great idea; however, the backpack functionality did not work for me. I had the back two straps positioned as short as possible and it still hit me at an awkward position on my back, especially once I included my contents. Unfortunately, it was returned.
