Got a brand new bag

A couple weeks ago I wrote about how my dear school bag bit the dust. A sad event indeed. But, today while perusing Gilt Groupe and making myself stay away from the Marc by Marc (soo hard to resist) I navigated my way to Gilt Fuse and the Dakine sale. I saw some super cute suitcases and overnight bags (I saw a plaid overnight bag that I seriously considered for sheer adorable-ness, but it wouldn't arrive until after spring break, so I decided it wasn't worth it.) and then I saw the tote bags. I examined the print-covered totes carefully on my screen before deciding that I wanted one for my books this spring. My only qualm with it is that it doesn't zip, but on rainy days I'll just figure something out.
I love the colors and pattern - perfect for spring days. And it'll give my poor forever 21 bag that's just about to fall apart a much-needed rest. I just hope the straps are strong.
