Don't Ask Me How, But I *Know* New Yorkers Will Love This Katie Holmes Backed Tote Bag
When it comes to New York style, I consider myself an expert. Having been born and raised in this state and having lived in New York City for the past eight years, I've developed a sharp eye for the pieces and brands that resonate with New York women. A perfect example is DeMellier's New York Midi tote bag, which was recently spotted on New York native Katie Holmes.
Just yesterday, while hailing a cab, Holmes was seen with the stunning brown suede variation of the bag. She effortlessly paired it with white sneakers, black jeans, a white tee, and a gray blazer.

Named for a reason, the New York tote pays homage to the brand's admiration for the city's vibrant energy, striking architecture, and diverse people. Its spacious design, complemented by a minimalist, logo-free aesthetic, truly captures the essence of modern yet timeless New York fashion. The short circular handles are thoughtfully crafted to sit effortlessly in the crook of one's arm, offering the relaxed style that New Yorkers exude.
It's no wonder that this bag has already captured the hearts of many; I’ve noticed fashion editors from New York—like our very own Eliza Huber and Sierra Mayhew—adding it to their rotations. Whether they opt for the elegant black leather or the rich brown suede, this versatile bag seamlessly transitions from a busy day at the office to a fun evening with friends. Keep scrolling to discover this tote bag for yourself, along with other exquisite styles from DeMellier.
