Not that I NEED one, but a fun little bag in a fresh spring/summer color would be nice to have around. I have mused before on a getting a bright colored leather one, and even had a very nice pink leather bag (on sale for $50!) in my hand at Anthro, but it I just didn’t feel it and put it back. I also have written about ‘classics’ and you must admit L.L. Bean is one. I never really buy their stuff, but I was surprised to see they have a fun little custom program for their tried and true ‘Boat and Tote’ bag. You have a choice of size, body, handle, bottom and pocket color and you can add an outside pocket. You can even customize the handle length to create an over the shoulder bag! So you could customize one that would steer clear of the preppy overload, if that’s your thing. All in their heavy duty canvas that would last quite a while. The prices are amazingly affordable too. Now I am just overwhelmed by the choices….
