There’s just something about a fun summer tote. The kind that adds a little personality, a little color, and maybe even a little pizzazz to your outfit. Right now I’m loving playful bags with stripes, texture, and cheerful details—and if it happens to be personalized? Well, consider that a bonus.
In the summer, you need to be prepared for all possibilities. Sometimes you can be at lunch, which leads to the beach, or a pool, or a dinner party. And if you happen to have a big tote, complete with a travel ready makeup pouch and maybe a spare pair of flip flops? Then you’re ready for anything a perfect summer night might throw at you.
