Tiffany Totes

Tiffany tote bags

I got these Tiffany & Co. tote bags several years ago as party favors at a charity luncheon.  One year we were gifted the blue and the next year the white.  They are canvas with leather trim.  I have been using them to store stuff in my apartment, but decided they are so roomy and fabulous that I should carry them.   They also have three large exterior pockets perfect for cel phones, keys and anything else I need easy access to as I'm on the go.  I gave them a little freshening up so they are now ready for Spring. 

They came with a card inside one of the pockets that said we could take them back to Tiffany to have them monogrammed, but I never did.  I'm not big into monogramming, but kind of wishing now that I had at least the white one with Tiffany Blue lettering.  Regardless, they are going to come in handy this Spring and Summer for carrying around the City to tote all my stuff.
