So, why the name "Meeya"? ... is this a reference to a certain draenei...? :p

Dawn Radue in Stormwind City sells a number of "designer" bags:

These bags are functionally just like Huge Brown Sack; they cannot be seen by other players and offer no gameplay advantages to common bags (just like real life!). If you're willing to slum it, you can head over to Old Town and visit Alyssa Griffith, who sells generic equivalents of the designer bags like Heavy Toolbox and Mining Sack. Note that there are generic bag vendors in each major city.

Note that some of the bags do use unique icons relative to other bags, and might be useful from an organizations standpoint if you visually organize your storage bags, though you are more likely to be buying max-profession level bags at that stage such as Triple-Reinforced Mining Bag and Elementium Toolbox, which offer nearly twice the storage capacity.

It is worth highlighting that, despite being common quality (white lettering), the profession-specific bags are BoE.

The concept is inspired by Coach, Inc., who offers a large number of designer handbags, clutches, purses, and other accessories. The names match Coach almost 1:1 under names such as the "Madison Collection" ("Carriage - Maddy" High Tech Bag) and "Kristin Collection" ("Carriage - Christina" Precious Metal Bag).

All that said, can you really put a price on fashion? This is art, darling! Do you really want to be caught adventuring with something as pedestrian as, say, a Heavy Toolbox? Fashion is not about utility! Do you expect questgivers to take you seriously carting around some tired Heavy Toolbox? The "Carriage - Maddy" High Tech Bag is a Carriage, a Carriage. A Carriage is a piece of iconography used to express individual identity. A toolbox is kept in a garage or workshop, a Carriage is kept at your side where it can be seen! Only the most dashing adventurers will be carrying Carriage, I guarantee you.

You don't want to end up like Ricole Nichie, dear, do you? Caught wearing a Gem Pouch of all things, the poor dear. Now look at her: Practically nonexistent. She doesn't dare show her face in Undercity, let alone Silvermoon City!

And while we're at it, have us a visit to Sheddle Glossgleam because I saw your shoes when I first came in and, well, it's just embarrassing.

I think these bags are referring to the ones put out by certain big name RL handbag vendors who seem to think that if their bag has a certain name...they can charge more for it. Much like here.

So where's the Horde equivalent to this bag? Is there a "regular" vendor leatherworking bag available to Horde that's available to a low level character?

Appears to (still) be the only vendor sold leatherworking bag. Sorry Hordies, gotta hope there's something on the AH that's not ridiculously expensive. 3.5k for Magnificent Hide Pack on my server... not money I'm dropping on a bag for an alt!

I'm a newb, not a troll, so I deeply apologize for asking this but... what is the point for my leatherworking hunter to have a leatherworking bag when I have to use a bag slot for it? The slots are already used by bags of equal or higher storage for cheaper. Profession bags seem moot point to me if they have to take up a bag slot. Counterproductive much. Am I missing something? Is there a special equip area for a profession bag that I'm not seeing? Just please don't laugh, this seems like a very common sense thing to ask.

This bag does have it's good purpose as for players with Tailoring + Skinning profession. Both items go in it including the skinning knife and other crafting items related to both professions.
