Tote Bags For Winter
Summer is known as the season for vacations, getaways and as the perfect time to escape. However, with winter fast approaching we’re already making travel plans for the holidays, weekends away and everything of the sort. What’s the easiest way to pack for a quick getaway this winter? The answer is the tote bag. The ideal luggage for when you want to store a few electronics, accessories, makeup bag and any other essential miscellaneous items in addition to your main luggage.
Ideally, you want an easy, carry-all bag to store these items that can fit easily into overhead luggage compartments, under your seat on the plane or if you’re traveling by car, this bag can fit comfortably inside the vehicle. What makes the perfect tote bag? We think there should be ample space (obviously), lots of pockets and ideally lightweight and of course, stylish. Even though we’re storing a haphazard array of items in our tote, we still want it to be organized and functional.
We’ve rounded up a list of our five picks for tote bags that are ideal for your winter getaways.
This tote from Lands End is a canvas tote that comes in twenty different colors and patterns and can also be personalized with a monogram of your choosing. It boasts to be able to carry 500 lbs.

There is one large exterior pocket and four interior pockets as well as a key ring for additional storage.
