As much as we love the tiny and adorable Jacquemus Le Chiquito Petit leather tote or the cuddle-all-day Bottega Veneta pouch bag, both of these styles lack in one essential quality when it comes to an everyday hero piece – wearability.

Key elements of a power bag must include a versatile strap, roomy interior and a few zip pockets so can easily divide up your essentials – no one in the supermarket line wants to see the entirety of your bag as you rummage for your credit card.

The Dior Bobby bag is a new classic for the house and is ideal for those who like to make a minimalist statement. On the other end of the spectrum you have the Bottega Veneta Cassete bag that never fails to stand out, especially as it now comes with a chunky metal chain handle.

The Dolce & Gabbana Sicily bag is a timeless heirloom and looks especially striking in a bold red hue, but if you prefer a toned-down bag then TOM FORD Alix tote wins on style and wearability.
