I carry a JJB BeAll as my every day bag. I want a bag that is slightly larger to use for all day trips. I would like something similar in size to the PackaBe. I already have a PackaBe that I could use, but I want to give it to my sister so I thought maybe I could try out something different. I love my JJB's but I also like branching out and trying out other bags. I would love some recommendations. TIA!

Vera Bradley's Weekender is super lightweight and holds a ton - great for day trips or a night at Grandmas.
Mia Bossi's are fashionable with awesome organization and are on the larger side.
The Oi Oi Hobos carry more like a Spicy.
I LOVE my LB Pixie as a backpack, but it is going to fulfill the bigger requirement of this.
Have you looked at Baby Kaed's? They are bigger so they may have a tote style that would work.
HTH!

LOVE Oilily! The only brand I have found that is truly in line with the quality of JJB's.

Thank you so much! If I only I had a ton of money I would try all of these. I have such a huge wish list!

I really like the Baby Bee Fabien in Sky and the OiOi Hobo in Giraffe. I wish I could afford one of the leather Hobo's. They are gorgeous! I've had an AK Gladiola on my wishlist for a long time and I just got purchased one of those from a pink lady. I can't wait to try that out. I also love the Baby Kaed Shanti and have been debating trying that out. I am always nervous to try anything other than JJB though because the few that I have tried (Fleurville and Babymel) just don't measure up.
