Summer Bags: Raffia Totes for Summer

Jul 3, 2019

Heading out on a vacation?  Jealous.  My holiday break will consist of some yard work, some house work, and a doctor’s appointment.  Yay!  Adulthood.  Luckily, this chic tote makes any day feel summery.

I told you.  Summery.

First off, I love that this Mar Y Sol Ibiza Tote Bag has a woven slate-grey and natural color scheme.  The leather handle is nice, because raffia isn’t always comfortable to hold for long periods of time.  And the colorful tassel is a nice addition.

Looking for something under-$75?  Try this very similar NY & Co. tote.  Don’t care for the colored weaving?  Try this Forever21 Wicker Tote Bag.

    I’ve been searching for a bag like this – but smaller and crossbody. Does anyone have suggestions?

      That’s what I’m looking for too!! I found some but they’ve been scratchy on my skin. The search continues…

    ordered this immediately. If summer ever arrives in Montana I want to be ready.

    I have this bag and the handle has not worn well. Buyer beware.

Happy Hour: Atlantic Beach Pie

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t.  And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative.  So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]

The Find: The Only Wire-Free Bra That Didn’t Fail Me

After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras.  The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust.  It was a cruel irony.

The 2010s Trends I’m Loving and Leaving Behind

Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions.  From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute.  Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]
