Tie one on!

Jun 10, 2011 by mel

Have you followed the summer trend of tying scarves onto your purse straps? I’ve seen the accessorizing in several fashion magazines, from People Style Watch to Lucky — and on everyone from style bloggers to celebrities. Well, the look is totally cute and “breezy” for the season — not to mention cheap and easy. Also, I like the idea of having a scarf on-hand for inevitable changes in weather or cold malls and theaters. To get the look: you can either buy a set of printed scarves… and simply, tie it to the handle of your bag OR you can select one of these PRE-MADE trendsetters, part of our Rita Printed Totes collection.

Check out the two different styles — one is a rounded tote, tied with a bow for extra feminine touch. Coming or going, this tan tote is a statement accessory. I love that its rich exterior will also transition well from mid-summer heat spells to the cool breath of fall. Playing double duty on your fashion calls.

And the other… well, it’s a more square-shaped tote than the other, but also comes pre-attached and woven with a scarf accent. It’s exceptionally chic in structure and shape — and large for your heavy shopping excursions. Errands, anyone?

Which one will you tie on?
