Winter Tote
10 years ago by
When I choose a bag, the amount of things I need to check off before making the purchase is daunting.
The right color… the right color for the season. Leather? Two-toned? Is it durable to make it through the NYC subways? And above all, does it look good with my generally black monochrome outfits?
The idea of a natural tote with a little pop of color is perfect for winter. This one by Dillon des Pres Co. has just the right amount of color to accent my daily wardrobe and is thick enough to make it through the tough streets of New York (I’m talking to you Broadway tourists).
What’s your ideal tote for day-to-day?
Emerald Stripe Mason Tote, Dillon des Pres Co. Exclusively on PlanDeVilleNYC.com
My ideal tote needs to have enough space for A4, has to combine easily and preferably have a zipper. Love this one too though, beautiful and so unique! xx

Thank you so much Garance Doré Studio! The site launches on Tuesday, November 4 – but you can pre-order the PDV Exclusive Emerald Mason tote by Dillon des Prés Co. by emailing shop@plandevilleNYC.com x
I really like this bag Brie!
I am really in love with Michael Kors bags as of late. I have a white leather cross body bag and a Hampton tote in a pretty brown/tan with an ostrich like texture on the leather, this is my go to everyday bag for Fall. I am saving up and hoping for another MK bag for Christmas.
Big, super soft leather, very simple and getting better with the time, timeless…
Of course, one of my shop!

Such a gorgeous bag, simple yet classic!
My ideal tote must be big enough for documents needed for work and I definitely need a zipper to keep my things safe.

That’s one of the most beautiful bags I’ve seen in a long time. My ideal bag must fit in big tablet, book and a magazine (I never know which one I’ll fancy reading), perfumes, deodorant, brush, scarf, umbrella, bottle of water, 5 lipsticks, bronzer….Sometimes if also I have files to carry I will just shove everything in a small suitcase and just take my Chanel 2.55.

Ideal toote should be embodiment of personality and originality when those two are combined you’ve got timeless piece :)

Great design. I like the handcrafted look, reminds a bit of letter clips.
I have been fan of Frietag bags for the last two years and their tote is the best bag that I have ever had! Super light, just the right size and indestructible :) and recycled so I am very eco conscious too :)
Chère Garance,
Je crève d’envie de me racheter un sac mais celui que j’ai finit toujours pas gagner tant il a vieilli avec moi. Un sac à main FOSSIL en cuir au look cartable vert émeraude mat qui à force de vivre avec moi et d’être utilisé tous les jours, s’est patiné sublimement, résiste aux affres du temps (la pluie ne lui a jamais fait peur). La matière s’est assouplie du coup, il est hyper maniable. Et toujours classe. Oui je l’adore. Cependant, je suis d’accord avec toi : c’est un sac d’hiver. L’été, il se repose. Celui que tu as shooté est très beau dans le genre forme cabas ultra-chic et design. N’est-ce pas un inconvénient cependant qu’il n’ait pas de fermeture ?
i has to have zip fastening along the top. Esp when we’re talking about subway or any traffic. I am sorry so many designers do not think about it. Are they really that blind?
That bag looks perfect! I don’t need to think when I’m seeing something beautiful x

How can you possibly breathe carrying a bag without a Zip ?!!
I’m not saying I’m freaking out when I go out, but after someone stole my wallet (of course containing my whole life in it), my first mental check before choosing a bag is “CAN I CLOSE IT PROPERLY” and maybe the second one being “WOULD SOMEONE BE ABLE TO HELP HIMSELF WITH SOME OF THE ITEMS IT CONTAINS WITHOUT me being able to notice it”.
Love :)
Hi Marie – I feel you, I’ve had worse luck with small bags being stolen and I’m pretty crazy on the subway when it comes to protecting my goods. Maybe some bags are best kept for less travel heavy situations ;)
Je le trouve canon ! J’adore les couleurs douces pour l’hiver… A-t-on vraiment besoin d’être en noir intégral alors que l’extérieur est déjà maxi déprimant ?
Baci et bon weekend le studio !

I worship m0851 and their minimalist aesthetics. I have trouble picking one perfect winter tote bag from them since their seasonal color option always wows me seasons after seasons. Something like this: https://www.m0851.com/store/products/sh-80-bmosh801860999/?path=69,59
Superbe sac ! Les couleurs sont top :)

J’aime beaucoup ce sac! Le design est top, les couleurs sont fraîches et il est trop mignon.
Moi pour cette hiver, j’ai pleins de sacs dont notamment mon magnifique cabas gris tout cuir où je peux tout mettre dedans (même mon lisseur, aha). Il se mélange avec pratiquement toutes mes tenues et il est tellement ravissant que je n’oserai jamais le poser par terre!
My favorite tote? Of course the Officina del Poggio buckle tote. The leather is a soft but resistant grain, with adjustable handles and a cross-body strap. The unique v-gusset design lies flat against the body. Coming soon to stores for SS15 or email us for more details.

My favourite is from Sonnenleder – their leather is divine, the colours are gorgeous, and their products are made to last.

J’ai acheté pour la 1ère fois un sac (entièrement) noir. Un cabas, de la même forme que celui-ci, en cuir, bi-matière (cuir grainé et imprimé python noir). J’adore ce sac!
I love Arza design bags, I purchased a beautiful diamond-shaped one years ago when she was still very affordable and selling in the small designer market in Nolita, NYC. My bag is still fabulous and draws a lot of compliments. Check out her website: http://WWW.ARZADESIGN.COM.
Bonsoir Garance,
j’arrive un peu tard pour réagir à ce post, mais il le fallait…je suis jeune créatrice de sacs à mains sur mesure, basée dans le sud de la France, ( http://www.cosmopolitan.fr/,so-coquette-realisese-votre-sac-a-main-sur-mesure,2087,1869806.asp ) .
Un beau jour, cette journaliste du magazine Cosmopolitan, me contacte et me demande de publier un article sur ce que je fais….je ne pouvais rêver mieux. Ce n’est peut être rien mais pour moi c’était une porte qui s’ouvrait, aujourd’hui j’aimerais qu’une deuxième s’ouvre, (en mémoire à ma tendre maman qui a toujours cru en moi et qui serait tellement fière du chemin parcouru) qui de mieux que LA sublime blogueuse “mode” Garance Doré, pour cela…
Il doit être ni trop petit, ni trop grand, il doit se porter en bandoulière, il doit avoir une couleur facile à marier à mes tenues monochromes grises, il doit avoir un petit côté rock.
Pour l’instant, c’est le neo-folk de Balenciaga mais j’aime aussi beaucoup le frangé de chez Gucci
It looks really really great. I like that style.
