Burberry “Canvas Tote”

Here’s a nice twist on the traditional check pattern that we all love. I really like the bag, but I can’t help myself thinking that it would only work for the warmer part of the year. I guess it’s because of the material. As far as I am concerned, canvas works for warm and dry weather only. If I buy a bag during the winter, I simply can’t carry it during the summer time only, regardless of the material or the color. Can you imagine buying a brand new bag and not being able to carry it for months? I can’t. I should probably try to get rid of that prejudice, but I just can’t help it. It’s like I have this blockade in my mind and I’m sick and tired of it to tell you the truth. Ok, baby steps I guess… This is not only a summer-time tote. Why should it be? It’s made of canvas and released in May, so what? A bag is a bag, especially if it’s a nice and rather simple and not too demanding one like this is. That means it can, and should be carried whenever we feel like it! Ok, I feel better now… So let’s get down to business. I was saying… Oh yes…

I like the enlarged check pattern on this bag. It makes it look more casual and laid back. It’s still perfectly recognizable, even without seeing the metal logo plate on front, but it’s not overwhelming. The smooth calfskin is used for the handles as a contrast to the canvas bag body. The interior is featured with a zip pocket, a phone pocket and one open pocket. I like it.
