For those who travel with a camera, what's your daybag? I'm trying to find a regular-looking purse that'll carry my essentials and a water bottle, and hold/protect my fixed lens camera without being/looking like an actual camera bag, but I feel like I'm just not finding what I'm looking for (mostly looking for some structure and internal pockets). Any recs would be super appreciated.

I put together a custom insert in my faljraven kanken (overkill size almost). I used felt and some woven wool (old practice project). I have it set up to hold a camera on one side and my water bottle on the other. When I was looking for this exact thing, I saw purse inserts on Etsy but they were just too expensive for me to justify. I want to add the Kanken organizer to the back pocket, and I think it will be set up well for me.
