In The Bag: Valerie Jarrett's Enormous Totes (SLIDESHOW)

It's no surprise that Valerie Jarrett, senior advisor and good friend of President Obama's, takes her work wherever she goes. But it is good to know she does it with flair.

See her best bags below.

Or see other reasons Jarrett was nominated Washington's best-dressed woman.

The cream bag is by Louis Vuitton.

The last image (plane) is a Louis Vuitton GM Passy. I like this one the best, less slouchy than the other large totes (totes can be a literal pain in the shoulder) and it fits a laptop.

Ha! You saw that too.

Very structured.

First two handbag photos in the croc print I recognize as a Givenchy Nightingale handbag, towards the middle photos she's carrying a Jimmy Choo Ramona handbag in the taupe colore with the brass buckle strap loops. Don't recognize the black Tote or the ivory/cream colored bags towards the end as an particular brand name.

I heart totebags. I'm usually out of my business clothes by the time I hit the door to the parking garage, especially my shoes, so I can drive home in comfort or to the park for my walk.

They also come in handy for bringing some fried chicken or other snacks to the movies - eat something healthy instead of that overpriced junk they sell.

she's a whole lot of fabulous in a tiny package, and she's got great taste in purses to boot.

Valerie Jarrett! You are a GOD to me! I love your taste in bags especially the cream tote! You keep
rock 'en it girl!

Very nice.

[plaidsportcoat]

They're kinda big and she's kinda tiny, so they look even bigger...

[clockmouse]

Big bags full of stuff can cause neck and shoulder pain if you have to carry it very far.

Great bags (on her arm, not under her eyes), but needs help with the hair.

[anghiari]

Not really, she has a great cut...and because you don't like it means ....what? Why do you assume you have better taste than Valerie? Bet you could touch her bank account.

[mssreader]

Stupid comment anghiari, very stupid. What does her bank account have to do with anything and your comment about "because you don't like it means" means you are the last word. You are rather set in your ways and everything you say should be listened to be "god". Frankly I suspect your taste is is in the bottom of the barrel. Actually I think you made a typo and whomever this comment was aimed at "could" touch her bank account as you stated.

rude

The Obamas and Team have class and style!

[mssreader]

according to you rsprags but then a lot of people in the world and especially here in the USA do so don't let your own class and style show. Suspect it's not much.

[Urbanbarbie943]
