B. MAKOWSKY Portland N/S Tote

I love this bag and I have it in three colors: Sage, Purple and Brandy. The leather is very soft, and very durable. I have received so many compliments on this tote, regardless of color. Purple is my favorite, and I have worn it all winter. Brandy will be perfect for fall and Sage is great for spring/summer. Be sure to spray the lighter bags with a leather protector ~ this will keep them clean.

Typically, I do not wear totes because they have a tendency to "over power" me. The Portland North/South tote is fantastic for petite customers, and very slimming too. There is a cell phone sleeve on the back side of the handbag, so that you do not have to "hunt" through your purse to find your phone.

The hardware on the bag is great looking ~ beware of over loading this purse because it will get very heavy. I own tons of designer handbags, and for the money this bag looks much more expensive than it really is.

THe purse is beautiful, large but not too heavy, the strap is just the right length to carry over your shoulder and feels very comfortable.
However, the leather gets dirty very easily and there were no cleaning instructions.
