perfect Tote/shopper for summer and holidays

[magentastardust]

Anyone seen some nice shopper type tote bags for summer ? -I usually like tan.
Ideally a bit cheaper than Michael Kors ones more around the £80-£100 mark?

I second Le Pliage, you can choose from a multitude of colours. Am thinking about getting a 3rd one.

How soon do you need it? I actually picked up an MK one (bright not tan) in the my wardrobe pre-sale and at 50% off it was in your price range (£85). I think if you can wait 2/3 weeks the chances of finding one in the sales are pretty good.

Good thinking mysteryfairy! Thanks everyone.

I personally think the MK ones too bling (though better if you take the flash 'tag' off, I guess) and too ubiquitous. Much prefer the Pliage . I know they are everywhere too but somehow more timeless because understated.

I think it's the perfect holiday tote - so light - and have three.
But it's all down to personal taste.

i love le pliage
i really like that they zip up, where most totes don't
keeps your stuff safe from rain and the light-fingered.
