Hi all, I've been lurking around here for quite a while, but I think I need help now.
I am looking for a small bag to hold my essentials, that does not look like a camera bag. I am tired of lugging around my backpack and purse, so I'm looking for something that will do for both.
The ideal bag should have these measurements:
inside: 10"(w)x5"(d)x8"(h)
outside maximum: 11"x8"x11" (so that it will fit into my bike basket)
This is what I would like it to hold:

350D gripped with 24-70mm (lens down for easy access). And occasionally maybe also the 70-200mm instead of some other things.
So far I really like the look of the Domke bags (J-5XC in particular), but I'm not sure if that would work with the grip since from what I've read they are kind of small.
I owned a Crumpler previously (Daily S, my first bag, way too small now), but they were too padded for my taste. I also own a Jill-e medium bag, it looks nice but it's too big for daily use.
So basically I am looking for a bag that doubles as a purse, does not look like a camera bag, holds my essentials, and has a side pocket for easy access to my phone, and it really seems like mission impossible.
Do you guys have any suggestions for brands and models I should look into?
