MY REVIEW
The generous folks over at baggallini sent me the sensational elena tote in the marvelous Auburn color to review. They could not have selected a more perfect tote for my busy lifestyle, and the color Auburn is such a versatile color for me. The elena tote, as well as all the baggallini bags, are designed to bring a sense of order to your busy life, in bag designs that make sense, that are functional, that pay attention to the needs of woman and what they want to bring with them when they are on the go. It is with such excitement and enthusiasm and sheer joy that I share with you the details and specifications of the elena tote:

MY THOUGHTS:
My very first impression of the elena tote when I first saw it fresh out of the box was how abundant and large it is and how expertly constructed it is, and I knew right away that this tote was going to be durable enough to handle my rugged busy lifestyle for a long time. Those two thoughts were memorable and first impressions are everything! Once a positive experience has been made, it is always a trend for the rest to come!
I say I have a rugged lifestyle because I can't worry about being gentle with the things I own. I work hard, I play hard and I don't have time to worry about straps breaking, pockets ripping and zippers getting stuck. You get the idea. I am a girly girl, YES, I want to look pretty, feel glamorous and look like I stepped off the pages of a magazine, but I want the accessories I wear to be able to handle the bumpy roads that my journey in life takes me on. The elena tote has been meticulously constructed to do just that.
The elena tote has been serving as my daily handbag. It is large enough to hold the wide variety of items I need with me when I leave the house everyday. I carry items for myself as well as my necessities for my children so this handbag multi-tasks as my handbag/tablet/duffle bag. It has truly been like a personal assistant for me. It has a spot/slot for all my "little" things like my grocery store discount cards, my library card, my gas card, insurance cards, all neatly lined up on one side of the bag. Then there are perfectly proportioned pockets for my lipstick, my keys, and pens. So when I hurry to grab something like my tablet or my wallet, my fingers do not get caught up on those annoying little things that used to hide in the bottom of my old handbag. And, a matching wallet comes with this tote as an extra bonus and it matches the handbag to a tee. I am using that to store my cell phone in. So, when I need to make a call or answer a call, I know exactly where my phone is at all times. Love it!
I am totally feeling organized, in control, and yes feeling more professional carrying this blissful elena tote. It looks contemporary and ultra stylish, and makes me look pulled together and confident. The tote offers all the splendid design elements I look for in a classic, feminine, couture handbag, with the added benefits of assisting me to be more organized and orderly. A magnificent bag like this is one every woman should have the pleasure of owning and the designs are ageless and timeless so women of all ages and of all professions can reap the benefits from carrying them. There is a design to fit a wide range of lifestyles.
This concludes my review.
