Nylon Aquila & Nylon Skye

I already own 1 Gemini, 2 Gemini minis, 1 Aquila, 2 Starlas, 2 Aras, 1 Skye sling bag, 2 cosmetic pouches, and 2 XL straps. I have also bought a Gemini mini and an Ara for my mom and plan to do the same for my boyfriend’s mom. To say that I love White Elm is an understatement. I preach about them everywhere I go and now a few friends have bought them too. I have read some great stories about the Nylon collection so I thought I would try the black nylon Aquila and Skye. These are hands down my two absolutely favorite pieces!!! Now if I could only get White Elm to make a Carina and Starla in black nylon with that beautiful shimmery gold lining, I would be elated! One thing I must add is that opening packages from White Elm puts the biggest smile on my face as their packaging is truly special.

OBSESSED

I did a good bit of research before I made the decision to puraxhse my Aquila, and I’m so glad I did. This bag is absolute perfection and perfect for toting around everything I need for work! I’ve had a ton of compliments and I definitely want to purchase the Ara!

Loving the Sand

This is my second purchase from White Elm…and I’m never disappointed! This sand color is a classic and it’s smooth as butter. I received compliments and gave the website out as a reference point. I thank you White Elm

So spacious!

The Aquila is my first but definitely not my last White Elm Bag. I was impressed before my order arrived, customer service caught an error I made when placing the order and reached out to confirm my color preference. Just two days later I had this gorgeous spacious bag that fits all my MomBoss necessities! Love love love

4 years ago I bought this bag...

4 years ago I bought this bag because I needed a work bag. I have the brown with blue interior. Back then there were fewer options! I've used it every working day the last 4 years. And even has continued into the evening a couple times to the occasional evening college classes. And even a couple weekend getaways. It carries my lunch and snacks, laptop, planner, glasses, water, pens, textbook, everything and anything in between a girl can take to work. I actually have had it so long I WANT to buy a NEW bag (White Elm of course)... but this one still looks amazing! Has some interior staining from pens and things... standard wear really. There is extremely minor wear and tear on the handles (pictured). But... I've been using it every day for FOUR YEARS. I even recently had someone ask me where I got my "new" bag from (for some reason they'd never seen it and it looked new!). Uhmmm... yea, it's 4 years old. Check out White Elm. Buy the bag. 4 years, 52 weeks a year, 5 days a week...looking at 1,040+ days worth of use and growing. I hope one day I can justify buying a new one for work... or maybe I need one for travel?!... Need to work on my girl math...

Fantastic and Amazing Quality Bag

This bag is damn near perfect! I gave it 5 stars but due to my hang ups it’s closer to 4.5 stars but technically still worth the 5 star rating.

Where do I start?! Well the color! The almond is beautiful and the teal lining is vibrant and makes it easy to see what’s inside.

I have been using the Almond Aquila since August and I LOVE this bag! I work in a home based environment (I travel to people’s homes) so, my bag literally is like carrying my work desk. I carry ANYTHING I may need during my work day. Since I started my career I have been struggling to find a bag that could do it all and zip closed with all that I need to carry.

Aquila is it! She is a stellar side kick to my daily travels. Heavy…yes but it’s my traveling desk. If you carry a ton like I do I highly recommend snagging a padded strap that is offered as an accessory.

My hang ups?…

The strap drop… I’m not a small girl nor is this a small bag. A 10” drop isn’t enough space. It’s a tight fit and uncomfortable with the amount of things I carry in my bag. I can never use them but the included long strap works wonderfully.

The padded sleeve snap closure it does its job totally. But I just received my first Carina and I opted for the extended closure and it is something I totally wish my almond Aquila had the option for it.

A front pocket- I debate if this is a true hang up because it’s not necessary no not really but I a part of me thinks it would be great to have but again space wise I don’t know if it is suitable or necessary.

My photos just about speak for themselves. Aquila is a work horse of a bag. It can carry my laptop-which I typically don’t unless I am traveling to my agency’s office. But my yearly paper planner, 4 month daily planner, laptop, notebook, Kindle, pens, power bank and cords, my emergency kit, wallet and other basic needs fit in this beauty! But let’s not forget the superior outer pockets for your water bottle/coffee tumbler! I carry both almost all the time and it was a big part of a selling point for me since they typically take up a lot of space in any bag I would carry.

If you need to carry a lot of things on the daily this bag is all sorts of amazing!
