Botkier James Tote
After Jennifer’s wonderful interview with Monica Botkier, I found myself falling in love with Botkier all over again. And I bet all you Bag Bliss readers out there are just as anxious as I am to see the new Spring 2009 collection hit the stores. But wait no more because it looks like the first of these new styles have already become available online. One such style is this lovely Botkier James Tote. Like the James Satchel mentioned in the interview, this bag features gorgeously soft pleats and flowing tassels. It also has a drawstring closure and rolled double handles. However, this version is a little larger, measuring 15″ x 12″ x 7.5″. It’s the perfect size for carrying everything you might need throughout the day! It is also a little bit pricier, retailing for approximately $50 more. You can pick one of these babies up at Nordstroms, where it is listed as the Botkier Soft Pleated Tote (Don’t ask me, I haven’t the slightest clue why). It is available in Deep Purple, Cocoa, or Black.

I never really comment, but I just have to say I really love this purse.
I really like this new style
This bag is so hot.
I wish this bag came in yellow.
I have never heard of this designer before.
Not saying that I love it.. but it’s cool.
I’ll wait until it’s on sale :)
Are these the only colors its available in?
I love the tassels
This bag is nice, I especially like the tassel detailing, but the colors are really fall, imo. I need brighter shades for spring.
btw, great interview.
The pleated top looks weird to me.
Cute, cute, very cute!
I like the tassels, but that’s about it.
Unbelievable, this bag is hot.
I really like this one, but I’m not sure about the price.
I thought botkier was reintroducing the Trigger bag this season?
Finally a new style! I loves it.
Love it.
$50 more than what?
I don’t like this at all. Maybe for me sister, not for me.
I like this one.
I’ve never seen this style before, it must be new.
This bag is just okay, bit really me.
It looks like a bag made by nine west.
Hey everyone, don’t forget to check out the Botkier sample sale at gilt this week :)
miss massoni – It’s $50 more than the James Satchel featured in Jennifer’s interview.
I usually prefer satchels, but this time I would absolutely go with the tote!
