An ode to my Vineyard Vines tote

I don't think I'll ever find a bag I love more!



My Vineyard Vines tote holds so much- with multiple pockets and a zipper top it is the perfect bag. I hate bags without pockets. Without pockets little things get lost, I can't find my phone when it's ringing and I have to dig around for my car keys when I'm running late. The Vineyard Vines tote has 3 pockets on one side (I put my wallet in the middle, blackberry on one side, and then chapstick, gum, and a pen in the other side pocket)


and then a bigger zippered pocket on the other side. Plus there's a pocket on the outside!


When traveling I can fit my laptop, magazines, a book, snacks, and more. This bag has gone around the world: Mexico to Spain, Kauai to Kusadasi (Turkey) and everywhere in between!

It's also my everyday bag. During the week it's a diaper bag filled with toys, books, wipes and snacks. It reminds me of Mary Poppins' bag-it holds everything! At the beach or pool it can fit my swimsuit bag. At the movies I can throw in a sweatshirt and water bottle. My only complaint about this tote is the color. The light color means it can get dirty faster than something darker (hint hint Vineyard Vines-maybe different tote color options in the future?)

Here's the post that Project Gadabout did on the contents of my tote (click on photo):

  1. It is my summer bag! I love mine. The light color has been an issue, especially when a friend spilled red wine on one. :( But a perfect excuse to get a new one!

  2. I love my Lilly tote! I have wanted a Vineyard Vines one for a while, but kept hoping that my sorority would order one. I might have to ask for one for Christmas!

  3. I have the VV turtle one and I love it so much! It is so dirty though from using it during my college years- I just can't part with it even though I don't use it anymore!

    My go to tote is my navy Longchamp tote...love it! Matches almost anything I wear!

  4. I don't have one yet, but I am loving all those pockets. Most of my totes only have 1 pocket if that. This would be perfect.

  5. I don't have a Vineyard Vines Tote, I have always been a huge Long Champ fan, but it does lack the pocket feature. They should def. come in a variety of colors.

  7. Great post! Yes, I too love my VV tote! I have the smaller version too, but it just doesn't fit enough. Sadly here in New England I put it away for the fall and winter :(

  8. I love my VV tote! I almost got the one you have, but decided on the burgee rope tote in blue. It carries everything! It is for sure my go to tote!

  9. I love my VV tote. I use it for the weekends and for school. Also, I've been to Kusadasi, but I can't say my tote has. :(

  10. I don't have a Vineyard Vines tote, I invested in a Longchamp for school purposes, which I love, but the lack of pockets is such a bummer. Nearly everything is better with pockets, especially bags for functionality sake!

  11. Haha I like your note "this is not a sponsored post." It's starting to seem like some bloggers only do it for money/free stuff...

    Agree they get dirty too fast :(

  12. I can't believe I've gone this long without a Vineyard Vines tote, they just seem so perfect for everything! I just don't know if I could cheat on my Longchamp though!

  14. I love my VV totes, but I've had to update now because of law school - I just couldn't fit all my books and everything else in it! I also have a Lilly tote which I adore, my Longchamp (can't live without it) and a madras one from J.Crew which seems to hold everything. xo, LP
