CANVAS TOTE BAGS: HOW TO WEAR THEM AND LOOK GORGEOUS

There are tons of amazing ways to look great while carrying a tote. In order to show off this awesome fashion trend, though, you're going to need to buy and customize your favorite canvas tote bags. You can then customize them for your personal use, to give out at an event, to promote your business, or to demonstrate team spirit.

Did you know that 55% of people believe that the way you dress is an important part of who you are? If this describes you, you likely are always looking for new ways to spice up your wardrobes. Awesome canvas tote bags, while often overlooked, are an awesome way to express yourself.

But how can you rock a tote bag and look amazing while doing it? That's what we're going to talk about here today. Read on to learn some ways that you can wear these totes and express yourself along the way.

Be Timelessly Casual

The first and most common way to wear a tote bag is to hold it over one shoulder. This pretty much gives you a purse, but it's larger and can hold more items. If you're someone who likes having a water bottle or a book on you, totes are the way to go.

If you want to protect your belongings, you can also get totes that have a magnetic snap on the top. Items are less likely to fall out if you drop these bags.

If you want a tote bag in a custom or unique style, purchasing canvas totes in bulk is the way to go. You can customize tons of blank bags and have several options in your personal wardrobe. You can also purchase bags with team logos, names, quotes, or custom images on them so that you can match with your friends, family, or coworkers.

Be Larger Than Life

If you're headed on a trip or going to the beach, you might prefer to carry a large tote bag with you. Oversized canvas bags are also ideal for those who want to go shopping and carry a lot of stuff that they'll buy.

Those who choose these styles can wear their totes similarly to those with smaller bags. However, you might need to adjust the strap a bit to ensure that the entire thing would fit under your arm. You can do this by clipping the top of the straps together (or by simply buying bulk totes with adjustable straps.)

Want to wear your tote bag lower on your body? That's also fine, but it could get a bit uncomfortable. Make sure that you have those clips at the ready if you choose to do this.

Keep It Simple

Lots of people who like to wear totes as a fashion statement want to keep their wardrobe choices simple. This means solid-colored bags that stand out.

Making sure that the colors of the bag you wear match your wardrobe is important. Complementary color schemes work sometimes, but analogous color schemes- those consisting of 2-3 hues next to each other on the color wheel- are usually the best choice.

Neutral hues are also all the rage when it comes to tote bags. After all, minimalism is en vogue, and wearing a black, grey, or white bag is the perfect way to get in on this trend. Make sure that you match this style with a blazer, shoes, or scarf of the same hue- you want to create a cohesive look.

Want to indulge in the best of both worlds? Monochromatic color schemes are an awesome idea. This basically means a neutral wardrobe with a single pop of color.

Tote bags in bright colors like hot pink or teal are great for catching people's eyes. They really stand out when paired with black and white attire.

Catch Attention With Quotes and Sayings

Want to spice up your totes? Adding sayings and quotes that say something about your beliefs, values, or interests is an awesome way to do this.

You can buy blank tote bags and write different quotes on them if you plan to keep the entire bulk package for yourself. However, wholesale tote bags look even better when you purchase them with words already digitally printed onto their surface. They look professional, clean, and fashionable this way.

You can put a quote that applies to many different people on your bag and sell the extras online. This is a great way to make some cash. If you prefer, bulk tote purchases also make for awesome party favors or corporate swag gifts.

You can get lettering on custom totes in tons of different font options. In fact, you can 100% customize your design, meaning that your quote can be surrounded by frames and images if you want it to be. Think about the sayings that you love and how to best make them look awesome on your favorite bag.

Show Off What's Important to You

Even if you don't want words on your tote bag, you can still have fun with images.

If you're a nature lover, print some photos of flowers or forests that you've taken on the bags. Want to go beachside? Crashing waves make for an amazing fashion choice. This is also a great opportunity to flex your photography skills!

You can also show off a specific character, book, or TV show that means something to you. Sketching out a scene or a simple image can be a lot of fun, especially if you're an artist. Since you can sell these bags online, you also will be able to connect with other fans.
