How to style a cotton tote bag

Let the bag be the print. Denim and a white shirt in spring, a linen dress in summer, a long wool coat in winter. Match one color from the print in your shoes or scarf and stop there.

Seasonal pairing

Bright tropical and safari prints read best from April through August. Darker indigo florals carry into fall and winter without looking out of place.
