I’m loving the colors in this giraffe print shoulder bag – aside from the natural giraffe brown, there’s hints of red and blue. Comes with red straps, too!
What do you guys think of tassels? I tend to waver…but I like these.

We have a tote that’s far from ordinary, and we’re dying to share it with you! This Giraffe Print Oversized Tote by Nicole Lee exceeds the expectations of an oversized bag, offering the season’s hottest print (with a unique twist!) and undeniable versatility. This handbag features a large mustard yellow and black giraffe print made of soft leatherette. This bold design is sure to draw attention, and the material is durable and comfy enough to tote around. This limited edition tote also sports 3 patent handles that allow the bag to transform from a handheld accessory to an over-the-shouler tote. This can also transform the bag’s appearance from a more structured, professional bag to a slouchy, casual one.
The inside of this fabulous tote is also something to be crazy about. The bag opens with one magnetic snap, and is lined with jet black fabric. You’ll find one zippered compartment in addition to 2 smaller, open top pockets perfect for storing your cell and gum in. The inside is roomy enough to fit all your belongings in, so it can double as an every day bag or traveling companion. With this many options and to-die-for style, what’s not to love?
