For example, the Touchable and On the Go Totes have just the right amount of contrast resulting in chic not flashy.

The Modern Mix Tote by Tignanello once again accomplishes that task beautifully. I absolutely adore the sort of watermelon color combo of pink and green, shown here. Any other shades of the colors might have looked tacky, but the olive-y green and almost bubble gum pink are flawless together.

It's unexpected but somehow completely classic, which I've come to expect from the brand. To set off the bright spring tones, the main body of the bag is made from white pebbled leather. It works like a neutral background to showcase the pretty trim.

I realize that some people won't love these shades as much as I do, and Tignanello understand that, too, since they also offer the Modern Mix Dome Tote in several other color combinations. The contrasting purse comes in black and white, black and cream, dark multi-colored browns with yellow, and tan browns with white. It sounds confusing, but just click on the Amazon link below to view all of the unique choices.

I'm not usually a fan of large, chunky hardware. However, the square cut-out handle anchors on this tote are just the right scale here. If you look closely, you'll notice an understated logo engraving on each piece.

The last feature of the Modern Mix Dome Tote that I find the most appealing is the long length of the double handles. It can be so frustrating to have the top of a tote rubbing your arm as you carry it and making it awkward to access the inside. These straps have plenty of swing room to eliminate those problems.
