I was recently on the hunt for a ziptop handbag, and happened upon this beauty from Furla at the Woodbury Commons outlet. It’s the Raffaella Medium Tote bag. I mostly bought it for functional purposes (I wanted something that was lightweight, large capacity and securely zipped), but since purchasing it I have discovered that it’s truly one of my favorite accessories. It has easy access with a large zipper, and roomy pockets near the top for quick reach. The leather is soft as butter and pebbled, so I’m less concerned about wear and tear. I even took a risk and purchased a light color because they had the good sense to create this in a dove gray, a perfect neutral that goes with color schemes from fall to summer. I even love the way it pops against bright colors, like in the photo above. The jist of all this? Think about a Furla Raffaella tote bag if you need a reliable, chic, all purpose handbag that will always bring your look up a notch.
