How To Design The Perfect Monogram Tote

Happy Tuesday! We are so excited to share about a brand that’s new to our blog: Barrington Gifts! Linds and I always love finding new {to us} brands that are chic, affordable and have excellent customer service. Barrington Gifts definitely offers all of these and much more! As major purse addicts, this leather goods and gifts store has so many things that we love – including these customizable tote bags!

This popular tote is called the St. Anne and it easily has over 100 customizable combinations! From the leather color {3 options} to the fabric selection {more than 15 options in the Summer 2017 collection alone} this tote is aimed to please. Also, the stripe details and monogram are completely free. Yes, you read that right! There’s literally so many print, leather, stripe and monogram options that this bag is one of a kind! Keep reading for all the details on how to make your perfect monogram tote!

Lindsay’s Bag

Linds selected the St. Anne tote fabric in black/brown square pattern called “Chequers Collection” along with the light colored leather. Since she loves pink, it was a no brainer to pick this blush and cream stripe followed by her initials in block font. We love how it pops against the fabric pattern!

5.) Leather: Choose one of the 3 leather options, we chose the lightest called “blonde leather”

Whitney’s Bag

I love purple so I thought this oh so cute black and gray pattern would be the perfect backdrop. I selected the grey and lilac stripe option followed by a block monogram with my initials as well. I almost went with the black leather but decided to get the light one which turned out perfectly. The size is perfect for fitting lots of items but not being too oversized.
