We all need a handy, but perfect, shoulder bag. It has to be stylish enough to go with everything from workwear to eveningwear, but it also has to be roomy enough to carry your essentials. Which is why we’re loving the Monogram Saint Laurent Université bag.

Created by Hedi Slimane as part of his Pre-Fall 2014 collection for Saint Laurent, the Université bag is part of the Monogram line and features the classic YSL logo plus the name of the street where Yves Saint Laurent first established its Salon De Couture – Rue De L’Université.

The bag comes in two sizes – the smaller one is super cute if perhaps not quite so useful for – and in a wide variety of materials from different types of leather including crocodile (if you’re really rich) as well as tweed; there’s grosgrain fabric inside and an adjustable shoulder strap – which is one of the reasons why it’s so handy.

The Monogram Saint Laurent Université bag, priced from $2,450, is available from the Saint Laurent boutiques located at ION Orchard #01-25 and The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands #B1-116 and online at www.ysl.com/handbags.
