Travel day packs/camera bags - suggestions?

[julifish]

I am looking for a new day time backpack or camera bag to take on vacation this summer. Do any of you have one you love? I want something that doesn't scream camera bag, but has protection for the camera and room to carry a water bottle, a tablet, lip gloss, my wallet and a few small items. I'd prefer something that has built in protection for my camera, which is on the small size. Sony NEX 5 with an extra lens. And easy access to the camera.

So spam with your faves or ideas on what I can get. I want it to look somewhat stylish.

You had me until you said "stylish..."
snort. I still use the same utilitarian bag I've had for years.

Well you know, Europe...Jason is talking about wear cotton pants and nice brown shoes in Paris (he even said something about a scarf???). So apparently I'm supposed to look stylish on this trip too. I'm not allowed to wear white sneakers b/c it will tip people off we are American. Ha,ha...like my inability to speak another language isn't going to tip them off.

Here's one that's a little smaller than some. My daughter just bought it for her sister for her birthday.

I use my Kelly Moore bag for everything. I have the 2 Sues bag right now and it's awesome - plenty of room and stylish. It also has a zippered wallet section so you don't have to waste space on a wallet if you need extra room. I easily carry my camera, water bottle and stuff for Ryan in it.

I'm not sure how big your camera is but I used this Lululemon backpack for Europe this summer and loved it.
