Coffee Break: Professional Padfolio

This chic little padfolio from Target looks great if your office has moved to a hot desking situation.

To be fair, I always loved this kind of padfolio when I worked at my Big Law firm — if I was working off site or in a conference room for the day this was an easy way to make sure that I had a few essentials. For me that was Post-it notes, tape flags, and lip gloss, but you do you boo! (It's also a discreet way to carry a tampon or whatnot if you won't have time to run to your office in between meetings.)

The pictured version is zippered, but there's also a magnetic version. They're $35-$39, at Target.

Some of our favorite women's padfolios for 2026 are below! If you want something monogrammed, check out Etsy, Leatherology, Levenger, Case-it, or (for a splurge), Smythson — you can still find them at Amazon, Target, or Walmart. (Also check out our roundup of executive clutches and leather document holders, as well as women's briefcases!)
