The solution?

I’m spending quite a bit of my summer hauling notebooks, water bottles and who-knows-what-else around in different totebags. My attitude is that if I have to carry biiiiig bags - they’d better be nice ones :-)
I love the glam gold trim and the bold paisley print on this “Milly” tote by Della Fonte:
But then […]
