2. beach totes

Unconventional Tote

this PVC + leather tote bag will help you keep the things you need in-sight and accessible (like your sunscreen!) while keeping your personal belongs (wallet and ID) tucked away in the pouch.

Traditional Tote

of course the classic tote works just as well to carry all of your summer essentials too! don't forget to pack everything you need to stay hydrated and sun-safe!

By the way, what are your plans this summer? I’ve been doing a lot of quick pop-ins to New York over the past few weeks because I’m already started to prep for Fashion Week this fall (yes, ALREADY)… but I’m super excited for August because I’m taking a girls trip back to the Hamptons to enjoy a not-so-quiet weekend away from work and everything! Give me all the rosé, please and thanks!
