Totes Replace Purses as Status Symbols
…or so says the New York Times! Can you believe it? Pure, sweet vindication for the superiority of totes over purses.
“Seemingly democratic and certainly affordable (if not free), the tote might be the ideal carryall for these post-luxury recessionary times. The tote’s status is stealth. It telegraphs not money but access, ethics, culture.”
Indeed.
