Wanderlust on a bag

While I do have my fair share of buying tacky souvenirs, something I see everywhere and really hate are those black tote bags with a city name printed all over in white (see left). I mean, while it's nice to show off your favourite city on a bag and declare your love for said city to the world, at the same time, those bags are just plain ugly (even if they weren't so ugly, the thought of having to choose just one city to declare as my favourite seems like an impossible task).

On the topic of tote bags, with the summer sadly coming to an end, and university just around the corner, some of you may be shopping for the perfect bag to lug your textbooks around on campus this year.


With that said, here's a few of my favourite tote bags to satisfy the wanderlust in all of us:
