Squishee Straw Tote Bag

St. Tropez is a squishee straw tote bag designed for polished everyday carry with lightweight structure and organized storage. This mid-size tote features shoulder straps, a decorative bow, and top trim interwoven with narrow ribbon lacing for a refined finish that feels feminine and easy to wear.

Row-on-row stitched Squishee® braid straw gives the bag its distinctive texture, while ultra-strong nylon facing in a unibody construction helps it stay lightweight, flexible, and durable without losing its shape. Protective bottom feet add everyday practicality and help preserve the base.

Inside, the organized interior keeps essentials in place with dual 9-inch zipper compartments, two patch pockets, and a key clip holder. Measuring 13.5 inches long, 10.5 inches high, and 7 inches wide, St. Tropez offers practical space in a streamlined silhouette that works well for daily use, travel, and warm-weather dressing.

Reviews

Light weight and roomy

"Absolutely love my new purse. Over the years I have bought a couple Eric javits purses of similar style but different colors. This summer purse suits my needs perfectly. The only problem I had was that the two white tassels hung 1 3/4" lower than the bottom of the purse. Approx Approximately 1 in below the knot of the bow the two tassels bands were sewn down. So I took a pick stitch remover and carefully removed the stitches holding the tassels bands down. Then I could tie a knot and snug it up to the knot at the bow. This made the bow knot look more plump but still very pretty and shortened the bands to bring the white tassels up off the table top."

Strikingly Beautiful!

"This bag is so well made and the perfect size for poolside, beach or an evening out. The contrast and weave between the straw and black color is striking! The little details in the finishes really elevates this bag. LOVE LOVE LOVE!"

— Dawn M. (5/5)

Love the style, but. . .

"I absolutely love the style of this tote. However, when I arrived in person, I was disappointed in the quality of the tassel, which looked cheap and did not hold up well in the shipping box. Since this is supposed to be packable, that should not have happened. Sadly, I returned it ."

Terrific Tote

"I ONLY buy Eric Javits bags and hats! This was a Beautiful Hand Bag but unfortunately it was a little too large for my small stature! Even though it didn’t work this time, I will continue to purchase your products! They are the most gorgeous straw and durable I’ve owned!
