Military-Inspired Tote

As July comes to an end, (is it just me or has this summer gone by super quickly?) back-to-school shopping is consuming both my mind and my budget. At the top of my list was a unique book bag, and luckily I found one well within my price range. I was immediately drawn to this Red Cross Vintage Field Bag ($25) but when I found out that 50% of the retail price goes directly to the American Red Cross, I knew it had to be mine. The tote's adjustable straps can be worn over one shoulder or across the body, and the bag itself is just large enough to fit my laptop. Made of 100% cotton canvas with brass turn buckles, this bag is the perfect touch of military chic.
