Banana Republic’shuge summer saleis still going strong, but there’s an extra-special sale going on at Banana Republic Factory, too. I’m still shopping for some odds and ends for my honeymoon in Greece next month and stumbled upon this very nice-looking market tote for over 60 percent off that will make a great beach-to-town bag during our island-hopping adventures. At 8.75 x 15.5 inches, it’s the perfect size to hold a towel, book, and sunscreen, and because it’s unstructured and more on the floppy side, it can easily be rolled up to pack in your suitcase. I was most drawn to its woven details, and the leather handles set it apart from your typical beach bag. When I bought it yesterday, there was an extra 40 percent off at checkout, making it less than $30 — which justified the impulse buy. It’s now $35, and I can even see a post-travel version of myself stuffing the tote with farmers’-market goodies.

The bag comes in four colors: the olive (which I bought) and black are 60 percent off, the cape blue is 36 percent off, and the tobacco (a classic straw color) is 24 percent off. You can take an additional 20 percent off at checkout on each.
