Round One: Butter Yellow Anything

We know no one wants to associate their clothes with food, but before “butter yellow” turns you away, take a look at this soft sweater that could be a new staple in your wardrobe. This pale yellow will not only be the perfect transition from winter to spring, but will compliment the brown tones of your tote bag. Like black and white, yellow and brown are those colors that will always compliment each other.


Round Two: Ballet Flats

Need to be somewhere fast and still show off your fashion sense? A good fashion tip is to try to match their shoes to their top. With ballet flats coming back into style out of the simple need for all around comfort, add these flats to go with your butter yellow top and once you’re on the go, bring the tote to compliment your matching look.


Round Three: Denim on Denim on Denim

Denim, perfect to be popular for 70’s fashion and still popular to this day, will go perfect with your handmade bag. Both pieces are strong enough to fight off the cold and stay durable for each passing year. Let your look transcend time and keep both jeans and the handbag as your closet staple pieces. Whether your jeans are flair, patched or simply skinny, you can never go wrong with adding this tote to complete your look.


Round Four: Chelsea Boots

Chelsea boots have been on trend for a while and if you don’t already have them, they’ll be a good choice for your 2021 fashion. They’re a simple pair of boots while still adding that flair to your look with the mesh center. Like the tote, Chelsea boots are suited to be styled up or down. So put them with your best slacks for a professional look or throw on your jeans to be cute and casual.


Round Five: Cotton Face Masks

For this winter especially, protect yourself and others from the coronavirus. While you can’t use your bag to protect yourself, you can use it to carry everything that could protect you. Pair it with a monochrome cotton face mask from 144 Collection, throw on your coat and get going. Nothing can stop you from showing off your style, not even a pandemic.


Round Six: Puffed and Quilted Coats

You can’t have winter fashion without your warm coat! This year, fabrics like puffed or quilted coats are in. For the person who doesn’t like to shove everything in their pockets, take the tote with you. With two interior pockets, you’ll definitely have enough space for all your essentials. Paired with the wool of this tote, there’s no way you can’t be the epitome of warmth. Finally make other people jealous by cozying up with this tote, because you know they’ll ask you where you got the perfect winter handbag.


It’s the brown wool tote bag as the winner of 2021! So, take one less worry off of your plate by adding this handmade tote bag to your collection as you look to gather all your style choices for this year!
