Mr. Intrecciato's Bags #2: Agnes b. Graffiti Tote

Got this bag free when I bought my pair of Agnes b. sunglasses at $175. (I shall treat this as a form of rebate - $65 rebate in fact) It's a very simple tote bag. No pockets, no compartments, just a bag. I am liking the graffiti prints on both side of the tote, especially the side which has the "agnes b." print. The bag is made of canvas and hence is very lightweight. Without any items in the bag, the bag is as light as a feather. Best part of the bag? No matter how dirty the bag gets, it just adds character to the bag! The dirts and stains would probably complement the graffiti prints on the tote, just make sure that there is no foul smell to your bag, and as far as possible, keep the dirt and stains away. I am not saying that dirts and stains should be on your bag, but if there is no choice and you cannot get it off, it would not be a problem for this tote.

Now, the negative side of this bag. Firstly, the base of the bag is a removable piece of cardboard. This forms and keeps the shape. However, when I am using the bag, I sometimes find myself trying to shift the cardboard back into position, as it kept being pushed away by my items in the bag. Secondly, there is no pockets or compartments, and so I would have to sift through all my items to reach my ringing handphone, which would take too long and would be such a hassle everytime I have to search high and low for any particular item. Fortunately, I have found a solution to it. Stay tuned!

(I believe this bag is not for sale anymore as it is a seasonal item. Am I right or wrong?)
