“The leather on my Hermès Garden Party Tote is cracking and peeling and is near perfect. I’ve had it for over five years and have recently tried other similar bags for my daily needs. I didn’t think I really needed to explore whether Hermès had it all figured out, but I did and I’m running back.
The straps aren’t big enough to carry this bag over your shoulder, but that’s because the small straps do hold the weight everything I need to keep it light (and no one really thinks that looks good with a bag slung over their shoulders…) I’m considering buying a second one to start letting the background rot while this bag settles into dust…”

“I’ve been carrying The Row’s Park XL black leather tote for about a year. Like most people in the fashion industry, I’ve always been obsessed with bags. Before this, I was constantly changing them out, sometimes monthly, sometimes weekly. They were almost always large and almost entirely black (except for a brief three-week period with Loewe Chocolate Tote), I always find a way to justify my next bag. Then I found this bag. It fits me perfectly, literally. First of all, it’s a bottomless pit that holds everything: my laptop, my gym clothes, a 1.5. liter water bottle, an extra piece of clothing or two because it looks minimalist, almost utilitarian, but it’s very durable and, like me, it’s only going to look better as I get older. I promise I’m not saying this for money, but it’s the quintessential bag for boys (and girls) to have on the go.”
“I absolutely love my Métier duffel bag and so does my Charlie because he stole mine from me. I take it everywhere and now he takes it with him too. I really like what Melissa did for the Métier. I love the quality and style. This is the best of the two. The LL Bean Boat and Tote are another must-have; the zippered version is my favorite. The one I own is from my LL Bean in Virginia Special edition found in stores. I love gifting them for newborns, weddings, thank yous, birthdays, Christmas, etc. I use my Nili Lotan Jerry Clutch every day and it holds all my essentials. ”
