Tote bags have certainly come a long way. Previously, when we pictured a tote bag, it was always some kind of cotton, rectangular-shaped bag (which is still an amazing, versatile choice, btw). But now, a tote bag can pretty much be described as any bag with a larger opening and handles on either side – no matter the fabric or silhouette!
