Kismet…

This tote has a relatively funny story as to how it has come to be an item on Delight. While we have been huge fans of the folks over at Engage Green and their line of eco-friendly handbags and housewares, we didn’t ever order this particular style. We had been going about spring with the other designs in stock when one of these little totes accidently was sent to us!
Talk about happy accidents! We flipped, in particular Lynne flipped (shrieked actually), over the rich brown hues in combination with the most vibrant red we’ve seen this summer all wrapped up in a featherweight tote.
We really love the grab and go aspect of this bag – sturdy enough for your water bottles, sunscreen, and random lead weights you find during the day, but smart enough to know you need compartments and zippers for the cell phones you need within arms reach and the lip gloss you’re addicted to!
So simple, it almost made it past us, but thankfully with a bit of luck we have our summer tote!

very pretty. How much can it hold? With those thin shoulder straps it looks a little fragile.

Sandy,
The beauty of this bag is that it is not fragile. The leather straps are thin but durable and long enough to fit over the shoulder. It’s not a tote, so don’t expect to carry everything you own in it. It is, however, roomy enough for essentials. I’m crazy about the bag, and yes, I did shreak when I saw it!

I just got my bag and I’m in LOVE with it and get compliments everytime I use it. I was just at Peet’s coffee and two gals were whispering about it and i gave them Delight cards. Hey, do I get a commission!!!!
