What's In My Work Handbag - Madewell Tote Everyday Carries

[@user-lh4vh8lv7k]

Thank you for the clip at the end and the whole video. Love this color and style now. So many videos on KZbin talking about bags and no one shows how they look. 🎉🎉

[@merrymeet]

I'm glad we have the same taste in handbags. You've always got the best ideas!

[@SeaweedKisses]

Mary Thank you so much, Mary!

[@michelemibelle]

I'm glad to know I'm not the ONLY "bag lady" 🤣 I ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ your bag shares Michelle.

[@ninawestlake5005]

You're voice is relaxing. You're bag is nice. Love the color.

[@oilysphynx1350]

This bag looks so lovely in olive!

[@SamanthaStew]

This color is gorgeous. I have this tote in black but I wish they still made it in olive.

[@Momolovespaper]

That bag is SOOO beautiful!!!

[@SeaweedKisses]

Momolovespaper Thank you, Momo!! 😍

[@deannacecilia4817]

Beautiful bag! I have it in black and it's one of the most comfortable bags I own. I also love how the cactus pouch goes so nicely with the color of the bag 🌵

[@SeaweedKisses]

Deanna C.M. Yes, I agree with you! The bag is very comfortable to wear and carry around! It also helps that it's smooth to the touch.

[@MsKittyCruz]

I just got this exact one from Nordstrom and the olive color (deep woodland) is very pretty and versatile in person. For the longest time I debated between English Saddle and Deep Woodland, but decided to go for the limited edition color, and I love my choice. It really fits quite a bit as seen in your video, and the open top will just allow me to carry more and still put a scarf or sweater on top. Your video helped seal the deal for the olive color. Thanks!

[@0mfgeeze]

Just got this bag from someone selling it on eBay, I am OBSESSED. didn't know they had this color until I saw your video and I had been drooling over it for years! I am just over the moon that I have it now!

[@SeaweedKisses]

Oh yay!! So happy for you! This bag is still one of my favorites! Hope you enjoy yours in the many years to come!

[@nookmori]

I love that shade! I didn't realise there's an olive available. I bought my medium tote in April when I visited the States. I love it too!

[@SeaweedKisses]

PlannerBug I didn't realize they made an Olive one either, until a week before my vacation. It was perfect timing! Now they seem hard to get a hold off! Hope you're still enjoying your Olive TN! Love your journaling videos.

[@jendesign5537]

I have a tote from Madewell I love it! You can remove the scratches by rubbing them with your finger. Pretty color!

[@Lizforaday]

I love having an oversized bag. I also love taking a peek into what others carry. TFS! 😆💚😃🌷👍😜💜😳💙🌻🌴

[@bethlovett7612]

Me too.but it seems the bigger the bag the more stuff I put in it

[@jannahart]

This bag looks so cute! And I love your little cactus pouch!

[@bethlovett7612]

They have those at Walmart

[@iresine31]

I just got this bag in the lighter nude color and I LOVE it! It's the perfect size for petites too!

[@cookiekitty222]

Thanks for modeling it at the end! I'm also the same height and i usually shy away from totes as im never sure if they will "hang" well on me! Im looking to move into a work tote soon and im glad this bag has worked out for you!

[@SeaweedKisses]

K King I know how you feel. With our height sometimes totes can look like they're wearing us instead of us wearing them...haha! Glad that my video helped!

[@DeborahSutherlandDebinPei]

That bag! I've never seen one the shade, I am in love lol. One can never have enough totes ✌🏻

[@SeaweedKisses]

Deb InPEI This color had me at first glance! 😁😍

[@susanweller2121]

Oh, I love that tote! You look nice carrying it. Suits you well. I thought it was cute when you were talking about carrying your cactus pouch and why. ;-) I miss the Bay Area. That's where I grew up. And with all the new Japanese stationery stores, I would love to go to visit them. That bag is a great souvenir.

[@SeaweedKisses]

Susan Weller Why, thank you so much Susan! Ooh, how I love the Bay area as well! I fall in love with it more and more with each visit! The food, the diversity, the weather, the beach, the cute stationery stores....the list goes on. haha

[@augusthippie2768]

Yes, you did a what's in my bag video :)

[@cienneolaes5737]

your bag is sooooo nice!!!

[@Goldglitter_girl]

I like the tote and the dress too! I am about the same height. Looks great !

[@SeaweedKisses]

Thank you so much, Jen!

[@twinkle_ss9147]

Your bag is very neat 👍🏼

[@JeniPark3]

I think I just bought the last olive on the madewell website. Can't wait to get this tote!!!

[@SeaweedKisses]

Jeni Park Enjoy your new tote!

[@repn213socali7]

Jeni Park on the website it appears as a light green. Is it really an olive color or do I have to until it patinas for it to get darker? Thanks.

[@repn213socali7]

Seaweed Kisses did it come this light in color or has your patina? Thanks.

[@theycallmethequeen]

Oh nice! i live in Silicon Valley so I'll have to go check out that store!

[@HowdyHandbags]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing!

[@corikay]

Thank you so much for the review of this bag! I just ordered the Madewell Medium Transport Tote and I can not wait for it to arrive! I really appreciate you showing how it hung on your shoulder and when you carried in by hand ...I am about the same height, and I always worried that a bag will drag on the ground if carried by hand. I hope you are still enjoying this bag!!!! Also, can you tell me, does the shape or form of the bag change over time? Thank you!!!!

[@KathleenIllustrated]

San Jose California?! I used to live there! :)

[@SeaweedKisses]

Kathleen Illustrated It's definitely become one of my favorite cities!

[@nagaj6339]

Found your video very helpful as someone who is thinking of buying this bag! I love your bracelets-do you mind sharing where they are from? Thank you!!

[@SeaweedKisses]

Thank you so much! My bracelets are from Korea :)

[@chloerin135]

Love the bag, it's simple, sophisticated and casual all in one! Was wondering besides all the planners and notebooks do you also use your smartphone to plan or make notes too? If so how do you balance between, super curious:)

[@SeaweedKisses]

Chloe Rin Thank you, Chloe! This bag is my second favorite, right after my Fossil Sydney Satchel. As far as planning in my smart phone, no...I don't. For some reason, it just doesn't work for me. I'm a pen to paper type of gal. :)

[@vrmomoffour9446]

I want this bag sooooo bad!! Love it! I'm obsessed with the Passion Planner - have you reviewed it or have thoughts on it? I'm thinking about getting it.

[@lindac1142]

That is a beautiful bag and colour. Love the long strap(s)! It would be nice if it was zippered but it's a tiny bit too "floppy" for me. I guess I like a bit more structure in my bags. How heavy is your bag with all your stuff in it?

[@dflores9605]

Girl I've been looking for the cactus pouch you have and I can't find it anywhere. I really want one.

[@rosaalba3498]

Love the bag! What do you do for work if you don’t mind me asking?

[@randomcraziness...1259]

Great video

[@christhomas5219]

Cute tote and love the dress.

[@SeaweedKisses]

Thank you so much!

[@itsdanelly]

great video hun !

[@Sabbbem]

Is this shade in washed olive? Because it looks darker than the one on the weblink attached. 😯

[@Anrious]

omg whats the pretty bag!!!

[@mslizzied1]

So pretty, just wish it had a zipper at the top.

[@SeaweedKisses]

thelizdiaries You read my mind!! If only this bag had a top zipper, I'd rate it a 10/10!

[@MsLouisVee]

thelizdiaries I think what people don’t realize is you will lose the look of the tote somewhat adding a zipper zipper...it totally changes the look of the bag so you can either buy them with the zipper or without. personally, I like the convenience of an open top never had a problem

[@asanta2023]

MsLouisV agree...I have a tote without a zipper and I love it. Don’t like the zippers on totes.

[@Retrocrzy]

they sell these now w/ the zipper!

[@samanthatoles4769]

Where did you get that cute vitamin box?

[@SeaweedKisses]

Tj Maxx :)

[@bryanarodriguez2626]

would it be able to fit a 13 inch mac book air?

[@SeaweedKisses]

Bryana Rodriguez Yes, it would. :)

[@aloha_always]

I’ve been eyeing this tote but need help deciding on the color. Should I get the gray or dark Cabernet?

[@mookiemattei8942]

Get the cabernet. Goes with every outfit

[@karenwilson1975]

I love your yellow pen 🙈 I have a thing about pens I have over 1000 I just can’t stop collecting...do you know the make? X

[@SeaweedKisses]

Thank you! The yellow pen is from Hobonichi. It came with my order when I purchased their planner. Each year the pen comes in a different color. :)

[@karenwilson1975]

Seaweed Kisses thank you never heard of them before 🙈 love yellow x

[@karenwilson1975]

I love your bag thanks for a fab review I’ve just bought it in the oak colour. Love your cactus pouch where did you get it ? I’ve been trying to get one on esty but she won’t make any orders 🙈 I’m gutted, can you tell me the sizes of it gonna try and make one myself 🙈 xx

[@SeaweedKisses]

Thank you so much! Yes, I wish Amelie still made the cactus pouch as it's so lovely! The measurements are 10" wide x 6" tall. Hope this helps!

[@emagana24]

Does this fit as a cross-body on you? I'm looking to get in it in black. I'm 5'4 and have been curious about the fit.

[@SeaweedKisses]

It could...But it's a little awkward (too high up my torso). I prefer to just wear it as a shoulder bag vs crossbody.

[@emagana24]

@@SeaweedKisses Thanks for your response! I bought it in black and I love it.

[@staciabrown6383]

Too cute

[@vrmomoffour9446]

I really love this! I like the options of handheld or shoulder strap. Do you think it would fit a MacBook Pro 13 inch? The older thicker one.

[@SeaweedKisses]

VR Mom of Four Thank you! Hmmm...not sure if it would fit, but here are the bag dimensions to compare it to- 12 1/5"H x 11"W x 5 1/2"D. Hope that helps!

[@ariabubbles2655]

where did you the pencil case?

[@SeaweedKisses]

Aria Bubbles The cactus one? I left the link to the website in the description bar. :)

[@chewyro_chewyro]

Let me know if you want to sell this! Sooo pretty

[@ranasherif_]

use rubbing alcohol to remove that navy stain!

[@WinnieDaou]

As a health educator with a specialty in sex education, I'll never understand why some women feel at ease discussing sex, one night stands, abortion rights, etc. with relatively strangers, but can't deal with others knowing they are either menstruating or capable of doing so. 😑

[@taes.9696]

Ugh, it's sold out....love the color and I love madewell

[@SeaweedKisses]

Tae S. It's restocked now on the Madewell site. 😉

[@taes.9696]

Seaweed Kisses would you send me the link please, I don't see it

[@SeaweedKisses]

Tae S. Oh wow! It was there just a few hours ago. Looks like it sold out again...Keep checking, though. They'll probably restock soon on the Madewell website.

[@taes.9696]

Seaweed Kisses thanks.....I will, I need that color, lol! They sale out fast....I got the geo hole punch tote, my friend literally went 5 minutes later and it vanished.

[@MsLouisVee]

KonMari your bag😄😄😄

[@Cutesyowl]

❤

[@avlivinggolden]

No zipper, no go.

[@elizabethm3437]

Scratches will come out if you rub them.

[@tenzinkunsang162]

u carry too much stuffs....why???

[@loe3175]

We need things.

[@mookiemattei8942]

Because we can. 🤪
