Now that we New Yorkers are actually feeling the “Spring “ weather (finally),we decided that along with the Spring cleaning we shall be doing, we should also start our spring shopping. After all, now that it’s warmer, we have many fabulous events to attend .So when we stumbled upon these gorgeous African print totes by Gregory Parkinson on the barneys.com site, it was a match made in African-inspired shopping heaven! These African print waxed print canvas totes are perfect for carrying your essentials for a day at the beach or could spice up a casual daywear outfit.
However, if the the High price tag of $495 a tote doesn’t agree with your current bank account, do not be despaired! We found some lower priced alternatives from designer Aya Morrison. From the dashiki gold tote (which is a personal fave) to the Sierra totes, we want them all! And at $120 a bag, we may have some funds left over to get a matching belt. And maybe another purse.
So which totes would you love to add to your Spring Shopping List? The Hi look (Gregory Parkinson) or the Low look (Aya Morrison)?
