New Yorkers take pride in knowing how to differentiate a good tote bag from a great tote bag and let me preface my review by saying that the Charles & Keith Tubular Slouchy Tote Bag is a GREAT tote bag.

I wore the viral bag in the color cognac to work for a week straight, and trust me, I had my hesitations. As a professional schlepper, I tend to pack a lot with my laptop, lunch, a book, and multiple lip products in tow at all times. The Tubular Slouchy Tote Bag, at first glance, seemed too small to get the job done, but I was happily proved wrong. Not only could I fit all my regular essentials, but I was left with even extra room! My favorite part about the storage size was the small detachable pouch that held my personal care items seamlessly.

From the MTA to my high-rise office building, I was flooded with compliments from strangers and co-workers alike with comments such as ‘That bag is so cute!’ to questions asking ‘Where did you get it?’ As a girl who loves a little attention (who doesn’t?) I considered the praise a huge plus. 

The rich color of the cognac pleased me throughout the week while planning out my outfits because, unlike the plethora of other work bags I own, this one quite literally went with everything in my closet. I paired it with dressed-down blazers and sundresses all the same, feeling equally fashion-forward in both.

Many TikTokers sharing their love for Charles & Keith and particularly, the Tubular Slouchy Tote Bag, have received questioning comments on how a bag priced at a shocking $86.40 could be considered ‘luxury.’ So, let me add in my two senses. After using this bag for even one day, it is undeniably luxurious. The Calf Pu leather alternative rivaled that of hobo bags I’ve tried that cost hundreds to thousands of dollars. Every detail, down to the chic stitching and gold magnetic closure clasp, felt upscale and mature, elevating this from a tote bag to a professional staple.

The Charles & Keith Tubular Slouchy Tote Bag is proof that you do not need Gucci to look good. Luxury as we know it is changing, and this tote bag receiving millions of rave reviews on social media proves that! Overall, after wearing the Tubular Slouchy Tote Bag for a week, I give it an 8 out of 10 and have a strong sense that it will be my go-to work bag for the foreseeable future.
