South Brazil Adventure: Clutch Bags You Must Have

See how our designer Luane makes her days easier with the Travel Bag and the Tote Bag.


When asked what my favorite CBNY bag was, my first instinct was to go through my photos and figure out which one I wear the most. To my surprise, two bags showed up in almost every outfit picture: the Travel Bag and the Tote Bag.



I love to go to the park, walk around the neighborhood, go shopping, and enjoy an evening out with my friends. Living in Porto Alegre, in the south of Brazil, I prioritize practicality and comfort. It's important for me that bags look cute, but also make my day easier. I love to take everything I might need with me, and I think this is why these are my favorite bags.


The Travel Bag is great for walking around the neighborhood, running quick errands, going shopping, and going to the movies. Its front pocket is perfect for easy access to my phone and keys, while the interior pocket is where I store my card wallet, lip balms, and lipstick. The interior of the bag is super spacious, so I love that if I decide to buy something when I'm out - like another lip balm because you can never have too many - I can leave whatever I bought in my bag instead of having to carry a shopping bag around.

The Tote Bag is the perfect companion for going grocery shopping and taking Stella, my border collie mix, out for an afternoon in the park. The interior pocket allows me to store my phone and keys for quick access. This bag also has a key leash and a small dog clip close to the opening, but I actually use it to hang my Heart Card Wallet when shopping, and for Stella's poo bags - very important to find these quickly when you need them.



When I go grocery shopping, I like to carry other tote bags inside the Tote Bag so I can bring everything home later. On the weekends, I can carry everything I need for an afternoon at the park - water bottles for Stella and me, a little bowl for her to drink from, a blanket to sit on, a light jacket, a baseball hat... This bag is also super cute, which is why I took it with me to my birthday party. I had plates and forks to eat the birthday cake, and I also had some small cachaça bottles to share with my friends - a Brazilian drink, the one we usually use to make caipirinhas.

I highly recommend these bags to brighten your day, no matter where you live!
