All I can say is that I am just plain lucky. Last year, I ordered the matching garment bag to this tote and was extremely pleased with the product. The WallyBag Women's Garment Bag is made so well and provides an incredible amount of room and storage for your special clothing items causing minimal wrinkling. Love, love, love it. I did not realize a matching tote bag was available until this year. I just received the tote bag; it is equal in quality and style, Like its partner garment bag, the matching tote bag is sturdy and well made. Additionally, there is an abundance of room in the tote. I cannot wait to take a weekend trip and use both items together. Heck, both bags are so roomy, I might even be able to get a week's worth of clothing and accessories packed into the two. I would definitely recommend these WallyBags to friends, and have. Final thought: the coloring isn't exactly black and silver--the colors are actually dark charcoal and gray which I like much better than glitzy bling.
