    Gorgeous tote!

    "The size, the handle drop, and the color are amazing! Used this as one of my airport carry-ons and it held everything I needed. I like that the zipper doesn’t connect to each end because I was able to slip my cell phone inside the bag without unzipping. I’ll definitely be buying this in another color!"

    — Andrea C. (5/5)

    Great bag, not great shipping.

    "The bag is exactly what I was hoping for. Lightweight, easy to wash and zips up. While the shipping was not so great, it arrived at a neighbors home down the street and on top of that the box had broken open and the purse looked crumbled :( this was very disappointing. I have two other bags from Rothy and when those arrived it was like opening a beautiful gift! Not so much with this last purchase."

    — Jill V. (5/5)

    Love it!!

    "I a big fan of Rothy's loafers and wanted to try this lightweight tote for work. Rothy's has just vowed me with this bag. It's lightweight, spacious and extremely stylish - just the elegance and distinctiveness you are looking for in a work bag. Amazing Rothy's. It soft and slouchy and I think it will be ideal for travel as well. Stay tuned."

    Perfect tote

    "Great size for carry on or quick overnight adventures. Durable yet chic, families perfectly with the adorable Rothy’s Mary Jane flats I just bought. Bordeaux, here I come!"

    — amanda n. (5/5)

    Great but I wish the inside pocket was larger

    "The bag is nice and big enough to fit a tiny human. My only complaint is the inside pocket is small in comparison."

    — Tiani M. (4/5)

    Beautiful tote
