You have with you a cable-knit cardigan (just in case it gets colder), fuzzy earmuffs, compact crossbody purse with all your essentials, camera, iPod (gotta have good tunes), woolen mittens, Kindle Fire (for something to read on the Metro ride down there), bag of peanuts, and a giant insulated thermos full of hot green tea.
Are you ready to tackle all that downtown has to offer? Not yet, Missy! You need something roomy, comfortable and stylish to schelp all this stuff.
Any icky old canvas tote with gunk and goo on the bottom will just not do - after all, you are going downtown, you Urban Goddess, you. Enter this tote bag.
To your delight, all your things fit neatly inside - with room to spare. And the icing on the cake is that you look and feel so smart. I can practically hear impressed passersby now, “Ooh la la! Tres chic, Grand Femme!” To which you reply, “Le chapeau est dans la salle de séjour!” as that is the only French you know.
So I have designed and constructed this tote bag to be the workhorse of my wardrobe. It is in the simple shape of a shopper bag, and is absolutely perfect for long Metro rides to work or long walks downtown.
It has a tailored and trim appearance, from the formal exterior upholstery weight fabric, to the soft floral interior green cotton lining. It stands up on its own, structurally, and has feet to keep it from sitting directly on the floor. It is large enough to hold what you need without losing its shape.
This bag serves multiple functions, and the muted color palette goes with anything. It’s a winner, just like you.
Features include three types of interfacing: 1) a stiff interfacing fused to the outer fabric to give the bag a crisp shape; 2) a fleece interfacing fused to the inner lining for cushioning; and 3) a very stiff "timtex" material sewed in the base of the bag for structure and stability. There is also one interior pocket, and gold color metal hardware, including four feet on the bottom.
Dimensions: 16.5"(l) x 11"(h) x 6"(d) with two 22" long straps.
