Congratulations, you’re hired! Now that the interview process is over, it’s time to go shopping for a briefcase to carry your Monday through Friday essentials.
Think of a briefcase as your own personal assistant; it comes to work with you in the morning, sits by your side all day, leaves with you in the evening, and carries your most important belongings (both personal and professional).
Although a briefcase is used for work, that doesn’t mean it can’t be fashion forward. Today’s options have evolved to offer the best of both worlds: style and function.
With the goal of outfitting stylish professionals everywhere, we’ve compiled a list of 10 designer briefcases to ensure you’re efficient day in and day out.
