What: L.A.P.A. leather totes
Why: The days are getting longer and warmer. This can only mean one thing: spring—and then summer. Finally, we can shed the dark days of winter and whip out those colors. One of this season’s various trends involves bright, bold hues to brighten up your look. An easy way to pull this off—especially for those hesitant to venture out from the safety zone of neutral blacks, whites, and browns—is to carry a vibrant-colored bag. The luxe Italian label L.A.P.A. which can be found on Forzieri.com, has a cute yet functional tote in delicious spring shades: coral, mustard yellow (my favorite), ruby red, pistachio, beige, and green. Basic girls can go for black and tan, but remember, it’s all about vivid colors! The simple rectangular shape, silver details, and soft calf leather give it a classic look, while the color provides that extra punch. Though not necessarily a bag for a night out, it’s perfect for the daytime and for work—the shape makes it especially easy to hold file folders, books, along with all the essentials. And it does, of course, come with the ever-so-necessary cellphone pocket as well side slots.
