While the fashion industry has been looking forward to warm weather for a while, I’ve been struggling to get on board. I’m very comfortable warming myself by the fire and slumming around the house in my sweats, thanks all the same. But Magid has made me change my tune with this Straw Beach Bow Tote.
This tote might just be the very definition of darling. Its candy pink and neutral hues are real crowd pleasers, at least if you’re in touch with your feminine side. And if you’re not there are always the black and white, earthy brown, or blue and tan alternatives.
It’s made from simple paper straw, but the devil really is in the details. I love the colored stripes which go this way and that, and the jaunty little bow centerpiece. These accents liven up the tote’s fairly traditional shape and make it something special. It’s disappointing that the back is bare, but that sort of corner cutting isn’t unexpected at this price point.
The interior’s pretty stock standard, but at least it’s large enough to accommodate beach towels, flip flops, and other beachside necessities. Sadly there’s no clasp for security, but that does invite us to overfill it. Just make sure you’ve got someone to watch it while you’re spending time in the waves.
Magid’s employed some obvious money saving strategies here, but that sees us paying just $26.50 for this tote. Suddenly I don’t mind those compromises so much!
