BLEECKER XL TOTE BY AIMEE KESTENBERG

When you require both luxury and serious utility, the Bleecker XL Tote from Aimee Kestenberg provides the solution. At 18.5 by 10 by 11.5 inches, it’s large enough to carry everything you need for a full day at the office and the evening to follow while remaining just this side of the oversized handbag line without crossing over to weekender territory. The multipocket exterior proves as functional as the spacious interior, and two pairs of straps allow for hand or shoulder carrying. Made of vintage tanned leather, the Bleecker XL Tote comes in Corvette red, chestnut and black, all with gold-tone hardware. $358.
