Handbag Tote with Crossbody Option

Love a bag with pockets? 

This handbag can be called a small tote as well because there is room for a tablet, small laptop, or eReader. An 8 1/2" x 11" notebook will slip in as well. A 1" 3-ring binder will fit, but only with the top unzipped. ;-) But on the flip side, it isn't too large to be a carry-everyday handbag.

But, back to the whole pockets thing! There are 2 roomy zipper pockets on one side of the exterior and a deep slip pocket on the other exterior side. Inside is a large zipper pocket to hold all those pesky smaller items.

Exterior materials:
- Custom designed, themed fabric (out of print)
- Brushed brass denim marine vinyl (brushed gold with a subtle metallic look)
- Aluminum marine vinyl (dark aluminum metallic - and one of my all time favorite vinyls)
- The base of the bag is vinyl to protect from soil and moisture.

Interior materials:
- Water resistant canvas in a pop-of-color blue. The bright color makes it easy to find what you are looking for inside the bag.

Hardware:
Antique brass rectangle rings, strap ends, triangle strap connectors, swivel clasps rivets, and oversized zipper pulls

Zippers:
- #5 handbag size zippers, charcoal black with antique brass teeth

Straps:
- The shoulder straps are vinyl, lined with soft nylon webbing for a comfortable carry. They have a drop of approximately 10" for an easy carry under the arm.
- The durable black cotton webbing adjustable crossbody strap extends to a maximum of 55 3/4" and includes a snap-on strap keeper.

Behind the scenes:
- This bag is created with 2 types of bag interfacing for durability and structure.

10 1/2" High x 12 1/2" Wide x 4 1/2" Deep

Tips and Notes:

Bag size is often tricky to judge from photos. I recommend measuring a bag you own and use that to help visualize the size.

Due to variations in monitors and browsers, fabric color may appear different on different monitors. I do my best to show the bags as close as possible to real life.

Normal wear and tear is expected when we use bags we love. Your bag will take care of you, if you take care of it. :-)

When possible, BlueByeBye utilizes recycled boxes to help the environment.

SHIPPING DELAYS: BlueByeBye ships orders within 1-2 business days. Most domestic orders are delivered within a week, but there may be unexpected delivery delays by the shipping carriers, beyond our control, especially with USPS.

The combination of Covid-19, weather, and postal staffing may result in packages being delayed.  Many packages are still delivered on time, but don't be surprised if yours is delayed without tracking updates.

Delivery delays are beyond our control once it leaves the BlueByeBye shop, but we will monitor tracking with you to send positive thoughts!
