These spacious carry-ons exude timeless understated luxury.

Let&rsquo;s be real, not all of us can live in tiny bags every single day. Though chic and trendy handbags are all the rave&mdash;from the nano and micros to the medium-sized selects&mdash;big tote bags are also experiencing a moment. Blame it on The Row&rsquo;s Margaux or Bottega Veneta&rsquo;s Hop hobo, there&rsquo;s something undeniably stylish about a simple roomy tote. Not to mention, they&rsquo;re the definition of fashion meets function in the most seamless way possible.
But if you&rsquo;re used to thinking that luxury totes are mostly monogrammed, we&rsquo;re here to prove you wrong. The new wave of spacious leather bags are as nonchalant and understated as they come. Here, we round up 12 of the chicest leather offerings that will be your newfound classics.

The Italian Maison&rsquo;s offering mimics the shape of a doctor&rsquo;s bag but with a modern twist. The buckle fastening on both sides gives it a more utilitarian look without adding too much in terms of the design. The logo is also done in a subtle gold heat press, giving the bag timeless modernity. Available in this versatile brown and classic black, if you&rsquo;re looking for a structured tote for work and beyond Prada&rsquo;s selection is a top choice.

Nothing beats a classic-shaped tote. This particular piece from Coach has the right amount of structure and slouch to carry all your essentials and a little bit more. Again, the branding is simple seen as a subtle &ldquo;C&rdquo; emblem on the lower right to keep the design understated and simple.

Looking for a bag with a deep portrait-type orientation much like a stereotypical canvas tote? Then opt for Loewe&rsquo;s Puzzle Fold which features a subtle origami-like design. However, this style comes in a myriad of colors&mdash;there are also two-tone versions&mdash;we&rsquo;d like to suggest a quintessential noir to keep things classic.&nbsp;

Want a touch of gold hardware? Then opt for Saint Laurent&rsquo;s shopper that&rsquo;s spacious and architecturally clean. With a subtle printed logo just below the bag&rsquo;s opening, it also features a golden &ldquo;YSL&rdquo; emblem as a keychain for that added touch of luxury.

A cross between a bucket bag and a leather tote, this two-tone Jil Sander option is perfect for those who are looking for something medium-sized with a longer strap (and an adjustable one, too!) Made entirely out of leather as well, this style gives off a more casual feel, making it perfect for travel or weekends out and about.

There&rsquo;s just something undeniably chic about a slouchy tote. This malleable and roomy piece from Victoria Beckham is a must for anyone looking for a genderless design that could carry your day-to-day must-haves and a little bit more.

Here&rsquo;s a tote with a unique shape you shouldn&rsquo;t overlook. The curvature makes this leather bag distinctively Ferragamo and we wouldn&rsquo;t want it otherwise. This style is highly recommended for those looking for something different but still want to keep it within the &ldquo;tote&rdquo; silhouette.

Consider a structured square tote if you&rsquo;re one to carry your laptop at all times. This clean and understated version, with a barely visible heat-pressed logo, is a practical choice for working individuals opting for a cavernous bag that can house every office essential.

The London-based brand has quite a selection of minimalist bags, but their Midi New York stands out for its contemporary silhouette yet timeless design. What makes this tote both a fashion statement and functional piece is its additional strap, so you can wear it as a shoulder bag or sling bag, too. Not to mention its signature soft leather fold and rectangular front buckle add that beautiful touch of elegance to the entire design.

A leather woven tote in a statement forest hue may be too much for some, but we&rsquo;d like to think that it&rsquo;s a must-have for anyone hoping to add a pop of color to their otherwise neutral or black-and-white wardrobe. Green is also a versatile shade that stands the test of time and actually looks good no matter your outfit choice of the day. Of course, don&rsquo;t opt to clash colors when wearing this out.

Shopping for space? Then look no further than The Row&rsquo;s XL Idaho. Free from logos or any other fussy markings on the outside, this is undeniably your quintessential tote that will last generations when taken proper care of. The snap at the opening is a smart choice for closure to keep your belongings properly intact without the worry of spilling while keeping the bag&rsquo;s fuss-free shape.

Sometimes a tote with an uncommon shape might just be the piece to spruce up your wardrobe. Khaite&rsquo;s Lotus tote can almost pass for a hobo, nevertheless, its unique shape and sophisticated thin straps make this a beautiful option for those looking for something a little more dressy that can be worn from day to night.
