I will be the first to admit, I have about 11 summer totes. They range in colors and materials, but mostly are lighter in both areas and are perfect for the beach or a lazy day at the pool (sigh…).
I only have one or two winter appropriate totes, because I usually don’t want to brave the snow to tote anything anywhere.
The Virginia Johnson Zigzag tote is a great choice for this time of year, and will get your belongings there in style. This hand woven wool zig zag bag with leather handles would be the perfect thing to bring to a friends house full of goodies for a party, or to your boyfriends/parents/in-laws house for a cozy weekend sleepover, or even to keep your pumps in on your way to work (I desperately, desperately need a fashionable bag for that job).
My best friend got me a bag similar to this (but a bit bigger) with a zip top closure and let me tell you, it is fabulous. It keeps all my things safely inside while I’m lugging them around, and I haven’t lost anything since I’ve had it (knock on wood…).
Wool is perfect for winter, the pattern is cute, and it’s only $350 at Barneys!
