The big brown bag - Option #2

Melie Bianco ruched tote
Katie is still looking for a bag! A big brown one! So here’s her second option: the ruched tote from Miele Bianco. This bag is a nice combination of simple shape (it’s essentially a square tote) with cool detailing (the ruching and the silver hardware). It’s also a basic brown, but with a twist: this bag is patent, not matte leather, so it has a cool shine.
One caveat about this bag, though: this may not be the best choice for a very petite woman; the ruching makes it a fairly substantial tote, and it could easily overwhelm a very small frame. But for anyone NOT wearing a P size, this is a terrific go-to bag.
Miele Bianco ruched patent tote, $79.00 at Piperlime. (And a reminder: Piperlime ALWAYS offers free shipping — you can even toss something from The Gap Inc’s other stores into your shopping bag with your Piperlime purchase and keep the free shipping, on everything! Sweet.)

Unfortunately, I’m a 00P so it’s safe to say that this bag would overshadow my frame! I love the ruching though.
