Ellington Annie Convertible Tote/Pack

I dress and accessorize for convenience and comfort. That's why I usually wear a day pack instead of carrying a purse. I like to be hands-free. What I don't like is looking like a hiker when I'm out about town.

Enter Ellington's Annie Convertible Tote/Pack, a sporty, stylish mid-size bag with street appeal and plenty of carrying options. It's bold colors--chocolate brown with contrast blue straps and stitching, quilted design, and ease of use make it one of my favorite bags.

The Tote/Pack features an adjustable strap that allows me to wear the bag over a shoulder when I'm in a hurry or across my body like a messenger bag when I'm strolling around. When I'm out for long periods of time I can remove the strap and reattach it to rings on the back of the bag, turning it into a day pack.

For urban use, as well as travel, my Annie Convertible Tote/Pack has been so handy because it has several organizer pockets. The main compartment is roomy enough for my gadgets, a stocking cap (I'm always getting cold!), and my wallet. It also has a sleeve-like pocket, where I stash my camera, and a zippered pocket where I keep my lip gloss and tissues. The outside of the bag has two more flat pockets, good for a cell phone and a nutrition bar, another zippered pocket, and a key ring. The top flap covers the bag and all the pockets, and stays securely closed with a thick snap clasp. There are water bottle pockets on either side of the tote, as well as a hidden zippered security pocket on the flap.

The Annie Convertible Tote/Pack is just the right size for every day use -- big enough to carry more than the essentials but much smaller than a messenger bag. It's become one of my favorites!

Available in purple, blue, brown, green, and gray.

Bottom Line: A smart-looking, versatile bag.--E.D. Nov '10
