blazer; H&M

scarf; vintage Tiffany & Co.

Maps galore!

Recently I discovered the cutest website ever, that had two of my favorite things - maps and bags! Maptote created by Rachel Rheingold and Michael Berick because of their love of travel, maps and design. They have created cute cotton tote bags with silk screened sketched maps and landmarks of popular cities around the world.

My favorite thing sold is the Mapnote for only 4 dollars!

Here are some examples of tote bags in different sizes and styles!

Go check it out and see if your favorite cities have accessories here!
