It's officially the humble canvas tote's time to shine. From now until an A-lister's last boat ride this August, the summer staple will swim from beaches to outdoor restaurants and every Hamptons trip in between. Gwyneth Paltrow debuted her under-$180 Alex Mill tote as early as May 13—just as Kaia Gerber, Martha Stewart, and more have done in summers past.
Sure, paparazzi caught Paltrow outside her L.A. office, but her seasonal look would shine on a summer Friday, too. She traded traditional laptop bags—typically sculpted from leather or nylon—for Alex Mill's Perfect Weekday Tote, which lived up to its name.
