Ever since the tote bag design came back into fashion early last year, major designer brands have released their own versions of the bag with hefty selling prices that made them an exclusive buy for their intended market.
While international designer brands such as Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Balenciaga were only accessible to high-end buyers, a South African brand called GALXBOY hopped onto the trend and released their line of tote designer bags which were more affordable and accessible.
The GALXBOY boy handbag collection quickly became the new fashion trend, but has now gotten some competition as the women of Mzansi have now found their latest craze in the handbag department which are the stylish, simple and affordable Ted Baker tote bags.
As football jerseys are popular among men, so is the tote bag among women. Men wear their football jerseys everywhere, from chilling with the boys to dinner dates, the tote bag has become the it bag for women.
