Easygoing but oh-so-cute! From MICHAEL Michael Kors.

Summer’s here!  Okay, maybe summer isn’t QUITE here yet, but I for one am getting antsy in anticipation of all of those great summer weekends.  No, they’re not any longer unless you’re lucky enough to have “summer Fridays,” but getting out of town for the day or the weekend is so much more enticing when the weather turns warm.  Must-haves?  Well, aside from a swimsuit and a cute pair of sandals, a stylish tote is just what you need to speed your weekend getaways.  For an overnight or a trip to the beach, who wants to mess with luggage?  The right tote will hold everything you need and look great while doing it. Memorial Day is just around the corner, so here are some picks to get you ready for a summer on the run!

I love the versatility of the brown canvas bag from MICHAEL Michael Kors above, but there are some terrific brights available too, and there’s nothing more fun for summer than color.

I love the combination of orange and nude. See by Chloe.

A little slouch, a little structure, and a solid shoulder strap. From Andrew Marc.

Bold purple by Botkier.

Spring green from Trace.

If you want a nice neutral that you can take everywhere, Kooba is always ready to step in with a dose of practicality combined with their signature style:

Stylishly belted. From Kooba.

And I personally love this snappy offering from Foley & Corinna:

Also looks great with the top straps folded down and buckled in when you use the shoulder strap. From Foley & Corinna.

So, get your tote, pack up, and hit the road!  And send the Femmeinistes a postcard, wherever you end up.
