If the tote fits your lifestyle, you’re bound to carry it! But does this If the Tote Fits handbag from Nine West fit you?
At its heart the If the Tote Fits is a very traditional tote. We’ve seen its boxy shape so many times before. The colorblocked finish helps make it feel a bit more modern, although the effect isn’t done with any real panache. There’s such a glut of colorblocked bags on the market that designers really need to execute the style well to turn our heads. The red panels against the brown vinyl look nice enough, but they’re ultimately uninspired. I might be more receptive to the color combination come fall, but in summer it’s just so-so.
The If the Tote Fits is quite a practical bag though, with an ample main compartment and array of internal pockets. There’s also a handy zippered one on the front for stashing the items you need on hand. A sunken zip runs along the top, providing security without muddying the design.
Its vinyl material looks a bit cheap, but that’s to be expected at this price point. Girls on a budget will likely accept the compromise to have this on-trend tote on their arm.
