Hey guys ! I've had this tote for a few months but it's just been sitting in the dust bag in my closet. I love it because it's nautical looking but as for functional, I just don't see it being that. I am used to my hamilton, jet set zip top or selma which all have zips or closures and this tote only has the string clasp. I would be afraid everything would fall out. What would you use this bag for ? I was thinking of selling her if I'm not going to use her.

How big is it?

Small beach towel, sunglasses, lotion and book perhaps?

What if you used a purse organiser with a zip top inside it ( if such a thing exists?)

I doubt things would fall out unless you were swinging the tote like a lassoo above your head anyway, haha.

It is the medium size, but it seems large for me. I figured I would use it as a beach tote, just don't want it to get too dirty ! lolol But your right, I doubt anything will fall out unless I am swinging it ha
 
I'd use it.

It looks like a LV Neverfull and I've never had anything ( knock on wood) fall out of my Neverfull.

I am thinking about getting a MK tote similar to the one you posted, but in the MK vanilla monogram or a solid color.

I agree that things would likely only fall out if you tossed the bag over your head.

Is there a zip pocket inside? Maybe you could put important items in the zip pocket if there is one?
 
It's very cute but not very versatile, which is probably why it's been in a dustbag :p! It sounds like you might be happier with something more everyday...
 
I really like it. But it's seasonal for sure. For me a straight summer bag but really cute.
I was thinking the same thing. I really like this purse, but it definitely shouts summer. It would be great for casual outdoor outings or vacations where you just need a purse to carry a book or tablet, maybe some snacks or some bottled water. I used to use my totes for carrying notebooks and books for school too.
 
I like the bag as beach/vacation bag. But if you are not using it for that, I would probably sell it rather than wear it a couple times and risk getting it dirty which will effect resale value
