Sonia Rykiel Fashion Tote

This vibrantly illustrated bag by Sonia Rykiel makes a wonderful magazine tote and/or farmers market companion, giving stylish aplomb to the practical accessory. Textural embellishments such as ruffled satin and crystal studs place it a cut above the canvas versions available for sale at your local grocer's checkout, while an internal pouch pocket offers extra room for small on-the-go essentials. Score the bag now via The Outnet.

Cambridge Satchel Company Fluoro Batchel

While the satchel is a perennial classic, it's rare to the collegiate accessory in all shades of neon rather than tobacco brown. Britain's Cambridge Satchel Company has added just such a twist to their staple design, now available in fluorescent yellow, pink, green, and orange. Add even more dazzle to the accessory by embossing it with your initials in gold.

Maude & TIlda Cheeky Tote Bags

"Nice" inasmuch as they offer an eco-friendly alternative to plastic bags, but decidedly naughty in their messaging, these canvas totes send one hell of a cheeky message to passersby. You can choose among styles emblazoned with four-letter odes to Chanel, or blunt egomaniacal statements like, "I am the s^!t." The company ships internationally and is currently offering 10% off a selection of products, so get the bleep over to their website now.

Zara Bucket Handbag

Celine? Jil Sander? Try Zara. This canary yellow bucket handbag is deceptively more luxe than its $129.00 price tag suggests. Clean lines, buttery buffalo leather, and sturdiness to stand up to knocks and general abuse during your daily commute, this is a bargain purchase that performs like a pricey wardrobe investment.

theMADLY Burroughs Briefcase

Office life, least of all office style, need not resemble the one note homogeneity of The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit. Ditch uninspired attaches for theMADLY's Burroughs briefcase, whose oversized padded handle, relaxed shape, and buttery cow leather makeup put a modern twist on the classic accessory. Being named after Beat Generation icon only adds to the cool cache of this masculin-féminin piece.
