Little Wythe Tote Goes To France

The Adventures of a Hipster Tote Bag from Williamsburg and her Loving Owner!

Earlier this year I stayed at the Wythe Hotel. The stay was a Christmas gift from my three children-who all work and live in New York. It was THE best weekend ever! EVER!

The staff at the Wythe was just so incredible and helpful. The room was greatness and, well, I was so happy that I wrote a little note to thank the staff.

I even wrote about my stay in my blog, Atypical60.

With appreciation, I was gifted with a tote bag which I named “Little Wythe Tote”. She goes everywhere with me!

In fact, we just got back from some travels in France!

Here’s the thing—you know how people take photos of garden gnomes throughout their travels.

I took pics of “Little Wythe Tote”. Yes. My better half, a Frenchman, thought I was crazy, but just shrugged his shoulders…so here’s the photos of “Little Wythe Tote” for you to enjoy!

Best, Cathe Urbanski!

Little Wythe Tote. Resting in the apartment of my better half’s aunt. Enjoying the view of Paris rooftops!

“Please Cathe, please let me relax before I have to carry all your stuff around Paris”

“Hey, Little Wythe Tote. Don’t get cheeky with me”

“Thank you for carrying my goodies back from E. Dehillerin for me, Little Wythe Tote!”“You’re welcome. Now can you pour me a glass of red?”

Little Wythe Tote needs a glass of wine after carrying Cathe’s purchases today!

After a busy morning of flying from Paris to Nice, Little Wythe Tote enjoys some time relaxing on the terrace at the apartment in Theoule-sur-Mer!

At Geant Hypermarche in Mandelieu, Little Wythe Tote is ready to do some grocery shopping!

“Hey, Little Wythe Tote. Wait for me! Don’t get so excited!”

Little Wythe Tote is so eager to continue the grocery shopping. But cannot drink the milk or eat the baguette. Yet!

What a great helper Little Wythe Tote is!! Carrying those groceries in the heat of the Cote d’ Azur!

You will be rewarded!

Oh you little hottie! Enjoying the sun on the beach in Cannes! It’s a good thing you wore a sunhat to protect your straps!

Oh. My. God! Little Wythe Tote! You naughty girl you! I didn’t bring you to Cannes to latch onto a condom machine!!!Why on earth would you want a condom?

Ohhhh. Alain Delon!Now I know why you want those condoms!!!You’re so smart Little Wythe Tote.He’s so swoon-worthy!

Little Wythe Tote, I cannot believe I let you talk me into bringing you to Mc Do’s! Well, at least I can get free Wi-Fi here!

Little Wythe Tote, I know you love the pool here at the apartment in Theoule, but we’re going sightseeing later! Don’t get burned!

In Cabris! Enjoying the views and the sun! Isn’t it beautiful?

Little Wythe Tote stops at the Chapelle of St. Rita to pray for Cathe so that she gets finds employment upon their return to the States because Cathe is getting bored and doing weird things like taking photos of Little Wythe Tote!

Taking a rest at the end of the visit to Cabris!

Today we go to St. Tropez to visit Dany and his Butterfly Musee!

The Four Muskeeters in St. Trop! Dany and Vincent Lartigue and Cathe and Little Wythe Tote! After then it’s off to lunch!

Taking a rest at La Maison des Papillons! Carrying stuff is kind of tough in the heat of the South of France!

Cathe bought a new pair of Rondini sandals in St. Trop today and now Little Wythe Tote has a friend! A little Rondini tote!Both await a glass of wine on the terrace in Theoule while enjoying the view of the Mediterranean Sea!

Uh oh! You to are “sacked “ out! Just how much wine did you BFF’s have?

Enjoying a restful and shady spot at the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild in St. Jean Cap Ferrat

Listening to an aria from Madame Butterfly while enjoying the water fountain show at Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild!

A Rest by the gardens at Villa Ephrussi! A moment of tranquility!

Back in Paris from Theoule. That vacation on the Cote d’Azur was fun. Can’t wait till next year!

In the meantime, Little Wythe Tote enjoyes a stroll along the river banks of Maintenon!

Don’t be so sad Little Wythe Tote! Take one last look at Paris! The tip of the Eiffel Tower is in the background!Seriously! You’ll be back next summer—perhaps before.

It doesn’t really matter because I’ll take you on my next trip—but who knows where that may be!!
