Summer totes

I am currently on the look out for a chic summer leather tote. {Could be because I have been making some super chic zipper pouches that would be perfect to wrangle all things lost in the bottomless pit of a big bag- they will be hitting the shop next week.} A few that I am coveting...

The lipstick above is one of my new faves. Just sheer enough to be applied on the go, without a mirror.
