In understated wardrobes across the globe, you’re likely to find at least a few additions from Toteme. The Stockholm-based label entered the fashion space with a clear aesthetic: elevated, timeless and understated. Well before the quiet luxury movement, there was Toteme. For those in the know, the pieces are easy to identify through clean lines, considered design details and an enduring look that goes well beyond flash-in-the-pan trends. So much so that the brand has a series of signature pieces, beloved well beyond their first introduction, and featuring on wish lists year after year. One such piece is the Day Tote.

The slow approach to dressing has remained at the core of Toteme’s creations since it launched. In turn, a series of its best pieces have managed to outlast the trend cycles, like the scarf coat that returns every single winter or the trench coats that return every single spring and autumn. When it comes to bags, the brand has established a series of beloved buys, from the consistently spotted T-Lock to the more recent cocktail bag. Alongside, you’ll find the Day Tote, the most spacious silhouette primed for everyday or weekend breaks, ideal for the overpacker who wants to carry their laptop, notebook and diary along, whilst retaining the overall sophisticated look of their outfit.

Whilst some bags boast an elegant design and others are savoured for overpacking, the Day Tote seamlessly brings the two together. Capacious in size without looking oversized, the tote bag’s polished finish has ensured it retains its adoration through the years. The distinct lack of logos or branding, save for a discreet embossing, stays true to the brand’s restrained approach to design.

The Toteme Day Tote is currently available in suede, grained, croc-embossed and smooth leathers in a series of understated colourways. The bowling bag silhouette offers easy access to your treasures with a zip-around closure. In terms of size, the medium is the smallest, followed by the standard and the recently introduced ‘traveler’, specially designed for trips away. All of the iterations come with a detachable long strap to accompany the top handles and offer various ways to wear.
