During my recent trip to Toronto, I had the chance to finally pick up one of my dream bags. I’ve had my eye on this bag for many years, spanning back to at least the beginning of high school. It was quite easily the very first bag that I fell in love with due to its simplicity, silhouette and size. At that time in my life, tote bags became an integral part of my life as I tried to fashionably maneuver through the busy halls of high school with a large tote stuffed full of textbooks, beauty products and my pencil case.With such a short time frame in between in classes, it became an art to see how many textbooks one could fit into their bag and make it to class on time without having to go back to their locker. To this day, I still love tote bags for their functionality. I throw everything in mine from a bottle of water, my gym clothes, note books to travel snacks.
For the past year I’ve literally lived out of my Bilberry Le Pliage Longchamp Tote Bag, such that its corners have become tattered. I’d finally saved up for my designer tote, the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Damier Ebene MM, so I thought what better way to celebrate my graduation than with my first ever dream bag? A 9 year dream in the making, I made the plunge and love it! I opted for the Damier print as opposed to the Monogram since I’m not one for displaying designer logos all over my bag, and the Ebene color felt more neutral than the Azur. What caught my eye the most was the beautiful red lining that perfectly contrasts against the auburn brown canvas.
My only problem is not that I have a bottomless pit (ode to Neverfull) for a bag, I’m fearful of losing things amidst others. I’m currently on the market for a bag organizer but it’s difficult to say which one functions the best. Do any of my readers have one of their own that they suggest? Let me know in the comments which one is your favourite, I’d love to hear your opinions!
