Functionality comes first with this cute and casual tote from Ellington.
I can imagine this bag being a big hit with moms, because it can easily hold the extras you need when traveling with kids. It doesn’t have the extras you’d want in a diaper bag, but those exterior pockets seem perfect for storing snacks and spare tissues. I don’t have kids myself, but I could probably make good use of those drop pouches as well! There are more pockets inside, a key-clip, not to mention plenty of usable storage space.
Canvas is notoriously hard wearing, but Ellington isn’t taking any chances. Four big plastic feet help elevate the base, protecting it from dirt and damage.
The Saratoga looks like the perfect bag for picnics and relaxed café lunches with its fun triangular shape. It could also easily work as a travel bag, as the back pockets unzip to slide over a rolling suitcase. The colors are bold but not too bright. I’m not sure any of them is the ideal complement to the tan leather trim, but this golden yellow canvas comes closest. The blue Ellington tag also looks out of place; I’d be quick to remove it once I got it home. Once that’s done, I’d happily carry the Saratoga on any casual outing.
