Every spring and summer the hunt for the perfect bag begins. I decided to review the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote. It’s one of this seasons hottest bags and styles and is incredibly practical for anyone on the go. This bag is simple with clean lines and a great stiff material keeping its shape easily. On top of the beautiful look of this tote the quality is immaculate and will last you for years to come and is worth the investment.
Functionality:
The Saint Laurent Rive Gauche tote is the perfect working woman size bag. It can hold a 13” laptop, has great pockets inside and still fits under the seat of a 777 making it not only a great size for every day but travel as well. The Rive Gauche Tote is similar in size and practicality to the Dior Book Tote. This bag easily functions as a beach bag, a diaper bag, a travel bag, a work bag or even a small weekender.
Measurements:
It measures: 18.5″W x 13.75″H x 6.75″D with a 7.5 drop
Features:
One really nice feature of this bag is the 3 top snaps. These snaps are the perfect addition to this bag giving it the ability to close well so your bag isn’t spilling out all over. You can easily toss this bag on your passenger seat and not have the contents all over your car.

This classic tote body is mode of a super stiff structured canvas that keeps its shape very well. Its a lightly coated canvas (not shiny like Louis Vuitton) giving it the very stiff structure and keeps it cleaner. Calf leather dual handles make this a very durable option. The stiff coated nature of the fabric makes it very easy to store or travel flat packed without any damage and super easily.
Styling:
Overall I find this tote incredibly easy to style for the summer. It pairs so easily with a cute summer romper, a simple summer dress or pool side as the perfect addition. I love the versatility and function of this bag combined and cannot get enough of it this summer.
Overall this is a great everyday bag for spring and summer and will be in normal rotation. Will you be picking up this bag for the season? I would love to hear your thoughts on the bag after my review of the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote. You can also shop this entire look (I am in love with this dress) here.
