Nautical Striped Tote Summer Trend: Kate Spade Hawthorne Lane vs Michael Kors Jet Set

Looks like two of our favorite designers, Michael Kors and Kate Spade are on the same page- nautical striped totes are in for summer! Like clockwork this time of the year we see stripes everywhere, from accessories and clothing to home decor. You can’t escape it. It’s a fashion tradition.

Two totes that caught my eye are by Kate Spade & Michael Kors, and as you can see the design is almost identical.

The differences..
Kate Spade Hawthorne Lane is made from textured faux leather. Measures in at 9.75″ height x 17″ length x 7″ depth x 9.5″ handle drop and retails for $198
Michael Kors Jet Set is crafted in stripe print scratch resistant saffiano leather. Measures in at 11.45″ height x 14.17″ length x 7″ depth x 8.27″ handle drop and retails for $298.
