Are our eyes deceiving us? Is this sale actually happening? Pinch Us so we wake up! Wait, actually, scratch that. If this is a dream, we want to stay in it forever. We won’t be selfish though. We want everyone else to experience this with Us and take advantage of this sale before our alarm rings and we’re snapped back to reality!
This Furla Ariana Leather Open Tote Bag is currently over half off. This is no teeny-tiny bag or wallet either; it’s a full-sized tote! This sale is so good that two of the shades are already gone, so we need to act fast before the anti-magic words appear before us on our screen: sold out.

This textured leather bag from Furla is ultra luxurious. What else would we expect from the famous Italian brand? It features gold-tone styling, which is visible on the outside in the form of the brand’s all-capitalized yet understated logo. This tote has double top handles which have an 8½-inch drop, making it long enough that we can wear it on our shoulder if we choose to, letting the bottom hit right around our hip.
This bag doesn’t have a zipper, but it still has a closure! A lobster clasp closure hides away inside of the tote, ready to clip on to the loop at the other side. We really like this lobster clasp because it’s super easy to use for us, like an oversized necklace clasp, but it’s harder to access for others than a zipper would be. It’s subtle but still effective in keeping our belongings safe!
On the inside of the tote is one big interior open pocket, along with an interior zip pocket! These pockets are coated with a textile lining. This tote has a 15-inch height and 12-inch length, so we can fit all of our essentials inside of it. A laptop, tablet, water bottle, change of shoes, charger, fact mist, book, kitten . . . okay, we won’t keep a kitten in it, but it would totally fit!
The zip pocket is nice and long, so we can also keep a healthy amount of belongings in there rather than trying to squeeze in two lipsticks instead of one. We also like this zip pocket for separating the items we’re constantly reaching for, like our phone, keys, wallet and our kitten. Ah, caught kitten-handed again!
This bag’s size along with its clean and classic aesthetic make it extremely versatile and a go-to for travel. Luckily, it comes with an included dust bag, so if we need to pack it away for a plane ride or road trip, we can open it back up in another state or continent and find it in the same quality we left it in. No scruffs, scratches or stains here!
The two colors currently available of this Ariana tote are different enough that we could get both. Just an idea! (One that we can’t get out of our own heads.) Blue is a dark navy, capturing the tranquility of deep ocean waters or a late-night sky set aglow by countless stars. Navy can match with just about any color. We’re certainly having trouble coming up with something it wouldn’t work with. Avoiding wearing black and navy together is a super antiquated fashion rule and we’re advocating for the pairing to come out to play!
Vaniglia D is a neutral. It’s a creamy beige, and as the same suggests in Italian, it takes on a rich vanilla ice cream color. We love vanilla ice cream because not only is it great on its own, but it lends itself so well to other toppings! The case is the same with this tote bag. We can pair it with darker shades a la chocolate syrup or any color of the rainbow a la sprinkles. Dessert break, anyone?
This bag is perfect for commuters because of its functionality and size, but it’s no clunky duffel bag or backpack. It’s cute and sophisticated, so grab a pair of heels or booties and take it out on the town! And we mustn’t forget to brag about how amazing of a deal we got on it. Now that’s a fashion rule we refuse to give up.
