{a closer look // detailed photos of our *new* Glam Totes}

last week we introduced our newest Gussy item, the Glam Tote, and today i thought it would be fun to share a few more detail photos on this new bag. my idea behind this item was to create a slim-style tote that holds a lot more than you think it can at first glance. we also designed it using three super fun, never-before-used tweed fabrics. and they’re LOVELY, i tell you!

here are a few changes we made to our tote:
+ a slimming, vertical bag orientation was designed
+ 1 bottom-rounded pocket on the inside, measuring 7″ x 7″
+ a 2.5″ gusset {aka: bag thickness, to help it “sit” flat} for all your essentials
+ ruching/cinching of the shoulder straps {darling!}
+ angled ruffle design, to match the full Gussy collection

^ ruched/cinched shoulder straps

^ …but don’t let the slim size fool you! our Glam Totes can easily hold your daily essentials {wallet, keys, scarf, idea book, zipped pouch} and a macbook 13″ pro. oh yes, yes they can :]

jet black glam tote

^ new, tweed fabrics

apple glam tote

^ large, inside pocket

^ see the gusset up there? this adds a 2.5″ width to the inside of the bag, it also helps it sit flat

raspberry glam tote

YEOW! we are soooo happy with how our Glam Totes turned out! they are so lovely, slim, solid {extra reinforcement stitching is hidden on the inside} — truly beautiful.

along with all of the items inside the Gussy shop, this new item is limited in quantity. we love the idea of giving our customers exclusive products, for a more “one-of-a-kind” feel. if you see something you love, snag it while it’s still available…

PS. are you on our newsletter list? we send a special little gift to everyone that signs up {free shipping on your 1st order!} and then discount codes are included with nearly every newsletter sent, which is about 2x/month.

xoxoxo.

    Seeing the laptop on top of it makes me realize it’s much bigger than I thought!

    They are SO adorable ;) Love them :) Question…will you be introducing your regular totes back? I loved the Market Tote and wanted to know if it was returning. And will it have the “old” ruffle or are you going in a different ruffly direction? ;)

      i may introduce the larger tote, but probably not the market tote since the market tote and the glam tote are very close in size. (the glam tote is bigger than the market tote.)

      and i’m not sure about the ruffle style… guess you’ll have to wait and see :)

        Yes…I like the new style but prefer the “old” ruffle, myself. :D

    Love the tweed! I don’t see the ruching of the shoulder straps, though. Do you mean where they connect to the body?

    do you still have bags where the ruffle goes straight across instead of in the corner? gotta make my birthday wish list!

      we have a few zipped items in our sale section, but nothing like an actual tote. xoxo
