Tote-ally

They say you can tell a lot about a person based on what's in their handbag. While I don't disagree, I also believe that the handbag itself tells a lot about the owner. Structured bags have caught my eye for spring, and with their strong but ladylike shapes, they look like they mean business. They're the ideal way to add a polished and pulled-together element to your look, and their roomy sizes make them both functional and professional. Below are six of my current favorites to suit a variety of budgets.

J Crew Tartine tote, Diane Von Furstenberg colorblock bag, Boohoo Ella studded bag, Mango patent chain bag, Topshop winged tote, River Island bucket bag, structured tote handbag trend


1. River Island bucket bag
2. Diane von Furstenberg colorblock tote
3. Ella studded bag
4. Mango patent chain tote (also comes in black)
5. J. Crew tote
6. Topshop winged tote

I love that DVF color block tote! It's so fun and playful and would probably look amazing with the PG for Target items. :) I love totes and I never really buy them so I should rectify that! <3

I'm with Toni, I love the DVF colorblock tote. It's the perfect balance of on-trend and timeless. I need to invest in more totes, but I'm still working on getting a fringed back (advice from you from some time ago ;))
