Every time the topic about adding a new addition to my collection comes up, my darling BF questions why I must have another handbag if I already have many. Clearly, he doesn’t understand that each of my bags serves for special purposes. The Speedy for quick errands, the giant Work for school, the Damier Hampstead for shopping and the list goes on…

Apparently, fashion designer Anya Hindmarch understands this idea; just take a look at her new collection of Canvas totes. Each roomy tote bag features a quick description and illustration of where the bag would come handy to you. The Homework tote for the students, the wine bottle and salt bag referring to the tote to hit the grocery store with, the Boat Tote for your expeditions out in the ocean, and the Picnic tote to get your lunch-at-the-park fix with. Pretty cute idea I’d say, but when you think about it, it’s the same style, so one would be fine, unless you seek to collect them.

All four totes arrive with a 7” drop leather shoulder strap to keep very close to the body, open top and within a reasonable price range from $98-$120. Discover the varieties online through: Saks Fifth Avenue
