Y’all remember my old roomie Katie, right?! She’s literally the cutest! About a year or so ago, she started working for Barrington Gifts here in Dallas – you might have even seen her face on their instagram if you already follow them! They specialize in customized totes/bags for men and women. And when I say customized, I mean c u s t o m i z e d. Their site is super straight forward and it walks you through step-by-step. First, you pick your bag and then you can pick your pattern (literally so many of them), leather color, whether it zips or not, and initial size/font/style.

I now have two of these massive St. Charles Totes (pictured above), and I’m obsessed. I got my first one back when Katie first started working there back in 2019 and fell in love. It has been my go-to bag for lugging around my outfits and accessories for photoshoots. I mean it when I say that this bag can fit *so* much! I recently just got this one with their newer fall print because I wanted a second bag to keep in the car for mom stuff and just to have. It could very easily be used as a pool/lake/beach bag as well – the material is *so* sturdy and durable! I also LOVE how many compartments there are on the inside too – 6 to be exact!

Here’s a special link to get this exact design!

If you want to design your bag similar to mine, be sure to check the printed option for the tote (vs the leather patch). When you’re in the customization process, just select any color stripe. And then when you get to step 3, select the option that says “Initials only top center” and you’ll be able to design a bag without the stripe! This print is called “St. Germain Stripe” for reference!

Now, please enjoy these super candid pictures of me on my most recent photoshoots showing her off! You’ll get a feel for just how much this bag can fit!
