Can you think of anything more frivolous than a mink tote? This little tote from Bamford is totally adorable with the leather drawstring bow. OK, fine, those of you who read Bag Snob regularly will know that we have always bashed fur bags because honestly, how much sense does that make really? It’s a total waste of the use of fur and for our PETA friends out there, we can’t even use the “survival against harsh elements” defense when it comes to bags instead of coats. But usually fur bags are plushy and poofy and well, furry, and although cute as a stuffed animal, it does not make for a stylish bag. This mink tote is sheared mink (which is preferable for coats as well) so it is more like pony hair and less like Chewbacca. In fact, this bag comes in a smaller version in pony hair that is super cute, too! In fact, the entire Bamford Collection is really amazing. Mink tote at Neiman Marcus for $5150 (pre-order).
