The Lancaster models
Place your hand on Velvet Emma by Lancaster, and you recognise the velvet before the tote. Polyester forms the base, velvet the surface. No flap or laces: a zip closes each tote, in both M and L.
Carry these totes by hand or over your shoulder, as you prefer, with shoulder carry leaving your hands free. Black and brown are understated, while red, a burgundy shade, draws more attention. The velvet plays with the light, whatever the colour. At prices from €135 to €149, colour will make more of a difference than budget.
