Whether housing your work gear, beauty tools or just about any other daily essentials, tote bags are the must-have accessories every woman needs. And when it comes to this coveted fashion staple, there are few better options than those made from leather. Often considered as the ultimate accessory, vintage leather tote bags are crafted from premium materials that are timeless and durable. And because of their versatility, you can find one to suit nearly any style or occasion.
While they may be a bit of a splurge, Luxury Leather Totes by Vintage Leather tote bags are truly worth the investment. In addition to their durability, they also offer a high-fashion look that will instantly upgrade your outfit and give it a unique, timeless appeal. And because of the quality of the leather used, many tote bags will actually get even more beautiful as they age.
As a result, they can become true investment pieces that will continue to appreciate over time, earning you a higher resale value as well. The iconic Louis Vuitton Neverfull bag, Goyard Saint-Louis tote and Gucci Ophidia tote are just a few examples of this.
If you’re shopping for a tote that will take you from your office to an evening dinner with clients, it’s best to choose a neutral color like black, brown or tan to ensure it will match all of your wardrobe staples. And if you’re going to be carrying around any electronic devices, consider opting for one that’s equipped with a sizable laptop sleeve and zippered pockets designed to protect your device from damage.
The shape of your tote is a matter of personal preference, but there are some classic shapes that are always in style. Consider Staud’s structured leather shopper, which offers enough space for your laptop and notepads and includes a coordinating leather pouch to hold the hard-to-keep-track-of items like hair ties and your AirPods.
There’s also Loewe’s extra-large tote, which features a classic rectangular tote shape with two handle straps and a spacious interior that can accommodate two laptops. Plus, it has plenty of zippered and open pockets to help you stay organized on the go.
If you’re a jet-setter, consider a tote that was specifically designed with travel in mind. This Calpak tote is loaded with features to make life on the road a breeze, including a trolley sleeve, zippered and magnetic closures and multiple pockets to organize your belongings.
When you’re in the mood for something a little more fun, try one of these tote bags with tassels. The embellishments add a splash of personality and are guaranteed to catch the eye of everyone who sees your bag. And since the tassels are made from beads or other materials, you can always replace them with another color to keep it fresh and new.
