In case you haven’t noticed, I am super excited that spring is here. Shedding the dark colors and heavy fabrics of winter in favor of dresses and tops in breezy brights and pastels is a warm-weather treat. And of course, that extends to purses! Time to put away my dark brown bag and get out my DrikaB canvas turquoise tote. Here are a few of my favorite travel-ready purses for the new season:

Yes, this Ann Klein bag from eBags is leather, but the bright colors and fun lining make it a great bag for spring. It has plenty of pockets and compartments for files, laptops, and other travel necessities. And the price isn’t bad, either.

I have this DrikaB bag in turquoise and orange, and I LOVE it. I abuse it, throwing stuff in it, filling it up, and carrying around my laptop. This purse just takes everything I give it and sits there looking cute. I get so many compliments everywhere I go, and the inside pocket and compartments make room for everything.

Hooray for spring!! Now go outside and enjoy yourself.
