Very clever. And you look great in crisp white and tobacco brown, <b>merwoman</b>! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394292 Tue, 26 Aug 2025 17:05:40 +0000 merwoman 2394292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s what I think too <b>IP</b>! Kind of refreshes/renews the bag. And you’re right, it does tuck better under the arm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394256 Tue, 26 Aug 2025 12:48:45 +0000 Indigoprint 2394256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That really elevates the shape of the bag. Seems like it may help tuck under your arm better too. Fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394234 Tue, 26 Aug 2025 00:18:43 +0000 merwoman 2394234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jaime! And to answer your question, easy enough for me to get into, but maybe a little harder for ‘someone’ trying to gain access. If I was carrying a lot of things in my tote I wouldn’t bother shaping it, but generally I’m packing light and I like the effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394225 Tue, 26 Aug 2025 00:02:30 +0000 Jaime 2394225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You and your bag look great! But can you get in and out of it easily? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394207 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:40:34 +0000 Mirjana 2394207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you Merwoman for the explanation. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394206 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:35:32 +0000 merwoman 2394206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you <b>Mirjana</b>!<br />I hope the pictures help! Basically just fold in the ‘sides’ of the bag and secure them by whatever means you have. The first bag I showed has some great short side straps (even a faux Louis Vuitton has some handy features) but the grey bag needed a little thought to make it work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394205 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:29:38 +0000 merwoman 2394205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Correct Angie! And thank you for the outfit love!<br />Here are a few more photos.<br />Also &nbsp;I took a tote from indigo which was a little more floppy. I paper clipped the short sides together then tied the inside strings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394204 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:22:13 +0000 Angie 2394204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great idea,<b> merwoman</b>! You tied the narrower bag straps tightly to create a new silhouette, right?&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the outfit too! KILLER cute white jeans :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394203 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:20:16 +0000 Mirjana 2394203@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm confused also, but it looks great at the end. Lovely outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394202 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:18:11 +0000 LJP 2394202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What are we tying them together with ? I’m confused - but this is a great idea ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cool-tote-hack#post-2394200 Mon, 25 Aug 2025 19:12:19 +0000 merwoman 2394200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw this hack on a Trinny London video, and thought it might be of interest. It’s a nice way to give a rectangular tote (pic 1) a cool triangular shape (pic 3 ). Simply fold in the sides and kind of knot them together and voila!<br />pic 4 ootd! Got the tote last year from our local buy nothing group! Feeling a bit of fall in the air so went with browns today. </p>
