Buy of the month: Primark tote bag

If you only purchase one thing this month then make sure its this bag. I first came across this bag on Brogan Tate's blog over the weekend and to begin with I tried to convince myself not to buy it as I didn't think I really needed it and I'd have to break into my savings to get it. However on Monday I broke down after work and headed into town to snatch one up. And I definitely do not regret it!

Firstly, to me, this bag does not look at all like it came from Primark. It looks really well made and the design reminds me a lot of Zara's gorgeous Shopper Basket Bag. It has the usual two straps which fit on your shoulder as well as your arm and even has a long cross-body strap, making it super-practical and well as super-cute. The inside of the bag is just as pleasing as the outside as it features a small zip compartment for storing away small essentials and two phone pockets. It also has tons of room and even fits in my gigantic college folder so this would make a great staple bag for a university student.

But the best part of this bag is easily the price... £12! It is available in tan, as shown in the picture above, or black so you could pick up one of each colour and end up paying less than £25 for two bags! How amazing is that?

I think this bag is an absolute bargain and I've already seen it on a couple of other blogs so if you fancy treating yourself this month then I'd recommend heading to Primark as soon as you can before it sells out!
