If you are looking to update your Bag Wardrobe with a classic bag in a summery shade, the Bottega Tri Compartment tote in Lotus or Putty is for you. Completely irresistible in sugary sweet pink or soft dove gray, this expandable Tote bag/Travel bag is versatile and functional (Kelly wanted the Iron one last year but I talked her out of it because it looked so heavy and stogy to me, but in these colors I wouldn't object!). For me, the yummy frothy colors really lighten up the squareness of the bag! I know many of you are tired of the Bottega woven leather but it is still the sturdiest of them all. It is also ultra practical with three compartments that expand with your needs. Now how many bags can you say "beautiful" and "sensible" about in one sentence? Bottega Veneta Tote in Putty $2,650 or Lotus Pink color $2,780 at Net a porter.

The soft dove gray is beautiful. Buttery and just fabulous.
love the putty!
Tina, that reminds me that I've been wanting to ask about the "perfect" BV handbag. I want a beautiful classic bag and I love the squishy fabulousness of the leather, but I can't ever decide on a color/bag combination that I like. Suggestions? I like this tote, but something about the handles kind of bug. I'm 5'11 so it has to be size appropriate!
They are both exquisite. Sometimes, the BV weave can get alittle monotonous, but these shapes and colors are definitely an update. Even if they do get monotonous, the amount of work that goes into these bags is to be respected. It is not an easy task to weave the leather like this. I love these bags. The dove-gray is what I would use for long-term, the pink just for spring and summer parties.
The dove color is better,at least I think so. But you are right -the woven leather -I am a bit tired of it at the moment.
it's all in that pretty in pink!
Love that color, love the bag, wish the shoulder strap were
bigger.
Dove Grey one,yes please!! You're so right Tina,it's a perfect summer bag that won't date easily.
Yummy! Both please :)
I never tire of the BV wovens! I have this bag in Moro, a very dark chocolate brown. The official name of the style is "Roma."
