“Take, if you must, this little bag of dreams, Unloose the cord, and they will wrap you round.” - Yeats

If you've been reading this blog for a while you'll have noticed that I have a slight fascination with tote/magazine bags...could this be connected to my not-so-slight fascination with magazines themselves I wonder...after all, you need to be able to move your collection from points A to B somehow...

Anyway...up to this point my tote bags have been of the cheap and cheerful variety...mainly bought from museum stores and Paperchase but a recent browse around Dover Street Market's website uncovered these, rather spiffy, embossed leather versions...like Moroccan tiles in mourning...and now I'm wondering if I should cull the herd, so to speak, weed out some of the tote bags I no longer use...and upgrade to one of these.

    Paperchase always has the best selection of magazine tote/bags...as does V&A and Tate Modern gift shops!

  3. susie - definitely Tate Modern...I must have 4 or 5 of their totes. MOMA in NY is good too.

  4. That would be a great way to upgrade. It would go nicely with your grey wardrobe palette. I love Paperchase, I miss it.
