Summer canvas totes from Calabrese

Calabrese seems like a young and exuberant tote brand, so it might come as a surprise that it was initially established in 1920 as a tie collection. The founder, Eugenio Calabrese, was an avid tie collector who began designing his own line. In the 1960′s, Eugenio’s son, Sir Francesco, began distributing the ties to top boutiques. Fast forward a couple decades, and today we see a line of modern totes that are both practical and stylish, with their light and durable materials and fun pop colors. We especially like their Lapis Medium Canvas Tote, priced at $173.25. Available at my-wardrobe.com and atoo.co.uk.
