ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS

 

The find of the day is this GOLD Moshcino tote bahhhhg..... I feel as though this one's best suited for Eddy. 

KITSUNE

Kitsune are celebrating their 10th anniversary! The French music label was founded in 2002 and they've been making best compilations since. These totes are bound to sell out fast (probably via hipsters who have never listened to a compilation) so if you want one, go!!

*To add, my friend who's cooler than me also alerted me to the fact that they're now streaming all of their compilations on the site too, so grab your headphones and fight off the mid week blues. 

MY BAUHAUS IS BETTER THAN YOURS

 

I ran into this lovely guy at Columbia Road Flower Market in East London. His Bauhaus tote is just the best, and I've managed to find it online from this great Frankfurt based store, Azita. 

The whole site is worth a browse with plenty of curated curios... lots of things for the wish list.

CHEEKY MONKI TOTES

 

 

Monki is gorgeous, imaginative, cute, cheap, & cheerful (£6 for a tote). 
They ship everywhere and everything is really reasonably priced. 
What's not to like? 
... And did I mention it's Swedish? 

BON ANNIBERSAIRE COLETTE

From heaven aka Colette, we spied a Baggu tote celebrating the store’s 15th birthday. We could think of about a thousand things from Colette’s shelves we’d like to fill it with…

…worth also checking out the photos from the official party, lots of ridiculously good looking French people - nous aimons!

WOODY ALLEN

You either love him or hate him... but we're incredibly partial to Woody Allen. This tote jumped out from across our local market (Surry Hills in Sydney) but we'll let you know if they surface online.

In the meantime you can watch his movies (apart from Vicky Christina Barcelona, which we haven't seen.. but looks terrible.. despite 82% on rotten tomatoes)

DAUNT BOOKS

A visit to Daunt Books in Marylebone (London) is one of those truly uplifting shopping experiences. Skylights light up the long galleries of the store’s renowned travel book collection and you could easily lose a couple of hours in there.

More importantly, a tote from Daunt will see you rise in the cool stakes, as they are coveted by and swinging from the shoulders of London’s hipster elite. 

We just think it’s cute.

GORMAN X CASTLE TOTE

Now not all the love, frivolity and creative license of Castle is reserved for the home, there’s a myriad of the random, colourful and cute manifesting in a Gorman shop near you.

Rumour has it Rachel Castle sent a love letter to Lisa Gorman to get this collaboration off the ground… Totes Amazing strongly discourages this practice as we still await a response from the boy at the bus stop (10 years ago)…

TOOTHY TOTE BAG

What’s not to love about this tote from Lazy Oaf, It reminds us of all things good:

1. Jeremy Scott

2. Dr Teeth from the Muppets (who doesn’t love the Muppets)

3. Lollies (Something to do with teeth, lollies, dentist… don’t you kind of want to draw braces on the teeth?)

FILSON TOTES

A photographer friend recently brought these excellent utility totes from Filson to our attention. They’re made of “oil rag” whatever that is (literally it’s like oily linen). Nothing better than an American utility brand for outdoor enthusiasts. Feel like Bear Grylls would use this one. 

The “history” section on the website is just excellent… good to know they’re taking themselves very seriously. 

AMOEBA RECORDS GREEN BAG

Today = St Patrick’s Day, the worst day of the year to go out anywhere. 

In light of this behold the Totes Amazing tribute to St Patrick’s day, Green bags. Green bags, bags that are green, bags that might help save the world… or might just make us feel better about purchasing them. Today we’re reminiscing about the “environmentally friendly tote option” purchased from the most amazing record store in the world, Amoeba. 

The Think Green Tote’s a bargain, promising immediate hipster credibility, whilst saving the earth… all for a bargain at $9.99.
