Dreamy dream bag of my dreams.
Ok, so I researched my choices endlessly before settling on the Zella Gathered Tote because I commute to the city and need to carry *a lot* of stuff to get through the average day: laptop, lunch, workout clothes, toiletries, sometimes even a change of clothes for evening. I'd become tired of lugging multiple bags to cart all the stuff, so I set about finding The One True Bag.
I'm happy to report, I found it.
This bag not only carries all my stuff gracefully and stylishly, but comfortably on my shoulder thanks to the padded strap. The straps, by the way, are a seatbelt-like material, which provides a nice stylistic edge and contributes to the overall quality. The whole bag, in fact, feels incredibly well made and looks just fabulous (even better than images). It also has pockets-a-go-go, both inside and out.
A lot of the larger shoulder bags I encountered in my research were either too utilitarian, looked too much like a diaper bag, or weighed a ton because they were made of leather. This gem, by contrast, is sophisticated, functional, and lighter-than-air despite its large size. it's a unicorn of a bag, I'm tellin' ya, and flawlessly designed for the on-the-go ladyperson.
Zella, meet your newest brand hero!
Footnote: I'm using the large-sized (14 x 11 x 5) Rick Steves Packing Cube in conjunction with this bag, which works great for my gym stuff, because it turns sneakers, socks, top, and yoga pants into one slim rectangle shape that slides into the Zella perfectly!

Poorly made
I bought this tote for the gym and used it for a good month until the seams on the inside of the tote started ripping. I returned immediately.

Very chic gym bag
It’s a must have if you want a stylish and functional gym bag like me. I’m very picky with what I want and like. I’ve been searching for a nice looking gym bag for quite a while, and have gone a few stores and checked many different brands and styles… So glad I found this one. It has more than what I ask for. It’s roomy can fit my normal 2 pairs workout shoes, sweater shirt & sweat pants, plus my workout outfits, etc. And it doesn’t look like I have that much stuff in it. The 3 inside mesh pockets fit a snack bar, IPod or phone, you can see what you have in there without searching for them. The interior zip pocket is large enough to hold quite a few things. Love the 2 hidden outside zip pockets, very accessible and useful. I’m ordering another one for traveling. Really love it.

Great bag!
This is one of the best purchases I have made in years! I actually use this bag as a diaper bag.
It's really a great looking bag, holds so much stuff b/c of it's ample pocket space, and the inside/outside fabric make it easy to clean. So happy to have a zipper tote so nothing falls out. The straps make it easy to wear on your shoulder or across your body with long strap. Lots of great pocket space to find/grab things easily.
Great purchase for a bag of great style & quality.

The best bag ever
This is seriously a great purchase. The outside pockets hold my large water bottle or tons of snacks, my iPad mini, etc. There are three netted inside pockets perfect for your phone, a Luna bar, etc. then there is a zipper pocket on the other side that holds my keys and lipgloss, etc. The bag itself is large enough to carry a change of clothes. I bought the small Zella accessory bag for toiletries and it fits in there great with tons of room left over. There are also two hidden outside pockets that zip. This bag will double as my diaper bag, I had to force myself to move back into my Louis Vuitton because i was carrying this as a purse! Love it!

Great bag, could be awesome
I use this as a baby bag. I use it for his lunch, hat, drink, etc. I was sold on this bag for a few reasons: tote-type bag with a zip through the top, material, crossbody strap, pockets that zip on the outside as well as drop pockets.
I love the material, as not only is it lightweight, but easy to clean. The bag is very deep and so using the crossbody is only functional for me when I'm carrying the bag through airport security or something like that and don't intend to immediately reach inside the bag for anything. Otherwise, I almost use the shoulder straps exclusively.
The one drawback with the bag is that the lining of the bag (I got the black) is also black which makes it really hard to see anything. There are zip pockets on the outside and pretty big pockets on the outside of both sides of the bag. I use this a lot and I would recommend this to a friend.

Such a cute gym bag
I wanted an affordable and feminine gym bag and I am so pleased that I found this one. It's very roomy and big so don't worry that it's not as spacious as a typical (ugly) duffel. It has lots of pockets, with the exterior ones perfect for stashing your wet/sweaty items afterward. I love the crossbody strap but the shoulder handles are comfy and functional, too.
