The size is perfect if you like carrying a lot. I put my laptop sleeve, makeup pouch, keys, and sunglasses in it and still had space. The straps feel sturdy and comfortable, not stiff on the shoulder.
This tote is exactly what I wanted for summer. It holds way more than I expected without looking bulky, and the leather straps sit comfortably on my shoulder. I used it for a weekend trip and it fit my wallet, sunscreen, book, water bottle, and a light cardigan.
The size works well for commuting on casual office days, especially when I need a cardigan and a few extras. I also appreciate that the leather handles sit comfortably and make the bag feel put together.
It fits everything I need for a farmers market trip and still looks clean enough for lunch afterward. The raffia is naturally textured rather than perfectly uniform, so it has a relaxed handmade look.
A genuinely useful summer tote. The leather straps make it feel more polished than a basic beach bag, and the cotton lining keeps small items from catching in the weave.
I was looking for a larger raffia bag that still felt stylish, and this one is perfect. It has a nice structure, the handles look clean, and it makes my summer outfits feel more put together.
The shape is simple in a good way. It goes with linen pants, dresses, and even jeans. I also like that it has a fabric lining, which makes the inside feel cleaner and more finished.
Such an easy summer tote. It has that relaxed vacation look, but it is practical enough for normal days too. The snap closure is nice because the bag still feels open and roomy, but not completely unsecured.
I love how roomy this bag is. It works as a beach bag, but it also looks nice enough for lunch or shopping. The lining and snap closure are small details, but they make the bag feel much more usable for everyday things.
Really beautiful raffia texture. The bag feels natural but still polished, and the brown straps make it look more expensive. I also like that it has a lining inside, so it feels more finished and practical than a regular open straw tote.
