You know how you can never have too many pretty mugs? Well, I think the same goes for tote bags. One thing I noticed every time I go out for errands is that a tote bag is an item I can never leave home without. It carries all my ~essentials~ perfectly, plus it comes in the cutest designs! Some are K-drama themed while others are more for the minimalist aesthetic. The best part is since they're made of canvas fabric, they're easy to clean, too.
Nowadays, I think we can all agree that whenever we do go out of our houses, we usually leave with more stuff—of course, there's the added sanitizer/alcohol, face mask, and face shield. If you're the type na laging maraming dalang gamit, try getting an oversized tote bag. Whether you're headed for the grocery, bank, or beach, they're spacious and functional enough to fit all your needs.
Check out these online stores that sell *cute* oversized tote bags.
