Summer gives us the license to embrace our silly side and enjoy fun casual bags like this Felix Rey tote.
It’s made from lightweight woven straw in your choice of navy or brown. This casual material is accented with adorable sequin covered fish with cute button eyes. There are three fish up front and one on the back so it doesn’t matter which way you carry it. A delicate ruffle at the top of the bag adds interest without looking too girly. Its little details like that which make this bag a real find.
The traditional tote shape offers plenty of storage space, but it lacks the organizational features many of us might like. With just a zippered pocket to keep smaller goodies in order, this would work better as a beach bag than a regular day purse.
The dual straps are cotton lined for maximum comfort. They’re too short for over-the-shoulder toting, but at least they’re softer than regular straw in our hands. I’m also a fan of the flat bottom design which ensures your purse stays upright when you set it down.
This tote has such a quirky style, but I’m not convinced of its versatility. The fish accents make it ideal for carrying your towel and togs to the beach or pool. You could probably even use it for shopping trips in summer, but once the weather cools it’s likely to look a little kitsch.
