misosouper, a shopping blog

A sweet notecard that’s perfect for Valentine’s Day, and truthfully, all year round.

We’re still at the beach, and I’m still lugging my awesomely indestructible LL Bean Boat Tote whereever we go. (Seriously, that thing is a beast; we spilled soda in it, then dredged the bag in sand like it was being prepped for a fish fry.  Got back up to the room, and it all shook and wiped right out, no worse for the wear.)

But yesterday,  I noticed a woman carrying this curiously Croc-like tote that looked like a great backup.  Of course, I ran over and peppered her with questions; turns out that the bag weighs absolutely nothing, and is molded from a synthetic material conducive to blasting with a hose.  And according to the website, the Ladybug tote can carry up to 80 lbs without sagging.  By my calculations, that’s both a kid and a six-pack.
