Classic black and white purses by Baekgaard Ltd.
With black and white clothing a staple in most wardrobes, one must own at least one classic black purse and one classic white purse.
The Baekgaard black and white leather purses/mini totes complement business attire, a casual outfit or a trip to the mall in jeans and flip-flops. These totes present a crisp look and the piping adds flair. Decorative lining incorporates a good size zipper pocket for important items, and a small open pocket — ideal for business cards.

Mini totes will easily accommodate a wallet, keys, phone, make-up, change, pens, tissues and a snack. Both purses were a thrifty buy at Marshalls®. The black tote was $5.99 and the white tote was $12.99.
If your local Marshalls is sold out, do a search online or check out the Baekgaard Ltd. website for stores that carry their products. Baekgaard offers a large and diverse selection of quality products, everything from purses to a tie case to ensure your ties don't wrinkle while packed tightly in your suitcase, to a sewing kit for last minute button disasters, to a traveling tape measure for those moments when you want to be sure what you are about to purchase will actually fit in your home.
