15 Best Quilted Tote Bags for Women 2023 — Best Totes for Travel

Some people prefer structured, leather totes, but those of us who carry anything and everything tend to go for oversized tote bags that can take on any shape. Enter: the quilted tote bag. Taking a blanket and snacks to the park? Buying fresh fruit (fresh fruit-inspired fashion) and veggies at the farmer’s market? Tossing in your phone charger, handheld fan, water bottle, change of shoes, journal, hair clip, Airpods, hand lotion, and the kitchen sink? A quilted tote is for you.

Quilted totes are great not only because they can be amorphous but because they’re just as chic and trendy as they are practical. Think of your favorite Mara Hoffman dress. She’s smocked, isn’t she? The same concept applies to these slightly puffy totes: they flatter any bump or bulge and even have a cooling effect for hot summer days. The summer may almost be over, but quilted tote bags are not. Shop our favorite styles below.
