Some might wish for a ludicrously capacious bag, but Katie Holmes is proof that simpler is sometimes better. Case in point: Madewell’s Essential tote has been a go-to in the style icon’s wardrobe for years, often spotted on her shoulder as she’s schlepping around New York City. And right now, at 25% off, it’s officially one of the best Prime Day style deals we’ve spotted this year.

The Essential tote also recently made our list of editor-favorite work bags, thanks in part to its roomy size and sleek silhouette: “I finally found the perfect work bag—it’s more chic than a backpack and roomy enough to stow my laptop, headphones, water bottle, flats, and other necessities,” says Glamour commerce editor Malia Griggs. “Its thick strap provides the kind of relief a thinner strap could never, and I love its rich color and buckle detail.”
With an entire bouquet of flowers tucked into her own tote above, Katie Holmes is surely in agreement—it’s a bag designed to do it all. Even dressed in a casual pair of sweatpants and sleek sneakers, it adds an elevated touch for a much lower price point than other luxury bags. Her exact colorway—chocolate raisin—is currently in stock, but not on sale; however, black leather and a few colors of suede are all 25% off for the next few hours.
While we’ve been busy keeping track of the best Prime Big Deal Days sales (the discounts are running October 7 and 8), this is one discount we found ourselves adding to cart immediately.
