market tote

ever since i started spending much of my free time in the kitchen, i've had a recurring dream.  i dream of wandering aimlessly around famer's markets tasting fresh produce and dreaming up menus as i go.

in my dreams, this would be the tote that i carry.

banana republic market tote $120.00

generously sized, supple lambskin leather, and a pop of color against a versatile neutral.

my only concern would be the fact that the tote is unlined.  if i were to buy this tote for shopping purposes, i would still have to keep items protected in additional bags.  that is definitely something to consider when the bag is already priced at $120.00.

for now, i'll hold off and re-visit the idea if the bag goes on sale.  in the meanwhile i'll continue to bring my baggu bag in polka dotted navy. fits into a little pocket square for easy toting, and is super cute to boot!  

baggu tote $8.00
