Well, now that all the Schoolapalooza over at A Class*y Collaboration has reached an end (sad face) I can post about my...
TEACHER BAG!
I must say, I don't have just one. I am a self-diagnosed bag-aholic and having Thirty-One come to Canada was probably not the best thing for my wallet. I change my purse at least twice (if not more) a week and probably only carry the same teacher bag for a month at a time. That being said, I do have some go-to faves that stay in rotation longer than others.
Last year the bag I used the most was this amazing canvas tote from The Bay.

I loved that it had the traditional Hudson Bay colours (I wish I could afford one of their blankets!) and how sturdy it is.
Plus, it was on sale for $25! Awesome.
I could pack this baby full of stuff and it would still hold more. My car often told me that my passenger wasn't wearing their seatbelt when I carried it to school. A sign that maybe there was too much in it? Hmmmmm.

My best friend just bought me the Organizing Utility Tote from Thirty-One for my up-coming birthday (August 19th if you're wondering) and I love it. She got this print with my initials on it. I'm sure for the next year while I am on mat leave it'll be put into service as a diaper bag, but look out September 2014! I've got a new Teacher Bag.

Sometimes I just carry a few reusable grocery bags from a local grocery store because they're big, sturdy and can hold a lot. Plus, they come in all sorts of cool fruit and vegetable designs!

Since I am only going back to school for nine days this year, I don't anticipate needing to carrying a lot of stuff so I am going to rotate between my new Retro Metro Bag and the Inside Out Bag from Thirty-One.
I've been carrying these bags everywhere with me since they arrived and I love both of them!
I would love for you to link up with my ongoing linky party and share your Teacher Bag...or bags, as the case may be.
As a thank you to everyone that links up,
I'd like to offer them a personalized Teacher Planning Binder cover page like the one pictured below.

I love that line about the seat belt... Hilarious! But oh so true...

I love the Bay bag you used last year...unfortunately, I tend to go with the reuseable bags from store. I should get something better though...thanks for the inspiration.
Sorry for the delay. My "teacher's bag" post is up. I am still undecided but I am glad I've started thinking about one!
