My mom is taking a school course and has complained of her lack of organization skills. For Mother's Day, I wanted to buy her an entire load of office supplies (pens, Post-its, highlighters, pencils, erasers, binders, paper, subject dividers, etc.) plus a shoulder bag that could hold a few books and notes with dividers and such for the office supplies. Price range: probably $100 maximum; but I'd rather not spend too much in case she doesn't like it.

Would anyone recommend any sort of shoulder bag (leather or nylon)? I'm thinking along the lines of Samsonite products--some sort of portfolio kind of thing with space to organize. The closest thing I've been able to find are laptop cases....which would be great but she doesn't have a laptop. I'm at a bit of a loss for search engine terms--any recommended items, websites, or anything else I should include with the bag would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.....
