The students and interns that had no car or proximity to downtown were the ones with messenger bags and backpacks. At most I carried a leather folio with a tablet, paper and business cards in it.
My own experience is that, as an post-grad intern, I had a (what I thought) high-status black leather soft Attaché case, but as I worked in the adult world and developed my style I stopped using the case entirely. Most work is done via email, bringing papers home is frowned upon because of security risks, etc., and as was said, status-holders do not normally have to carry things.
On the other side of the coin, dude with some game awhile back told me the larger the bag the women carries, the less hot she is, from sorority hottie in tight black dress with tiny evening clutch, to the middle-aged "comfortable shoed" woman with her giant reusable shopping bags, to the ne plus ultra deranged bag lady with her stolen rusty shopping cart.
