WINNER: The giveaway is closed now, and the winner is Sara P.! Congratulations, Sara! If you entered but didn’t win this time around, keep trying, and click here to enter any ongoing giveaways before you jet. 🙂
This year’s 12 Days of Giveaways series started with a stellar Zella giveaway, so I guess it’s only fitting that we slalom through the homestretch with another zinger from Zella. 🙂
The $68 Zella Gathered Tote was one of my favorite accessories of the year.
Babe, I absolutely love this bag! Lightweight, comfy AND it fits all of my crap, like my photography equipment, makeup bag, cell phone, wallet, cans of Fancy Feast, tiny jars of Nutella, anvils, car batteries…
And it’s loaded with pockets! — inside and out.
Best of all, it’s flexible. You can use it as a basic purse, a gym bag, a photography bag or just a general purpose junk bag. Or, convert it to a cross-body bag with the padded strap if you need your hands free.
The deets…
- Top zip colosure
- Exterior zip and open pockets
- Interior zip pocket; open mesh pockets
- Nylon
- Dimensions: 17 1/4″W x 18 1/2″H x 4″D (measures extra large)
- Strap drop: 8″
- Shoulder strap drop: 13″ – 24″
This being the grand finale in this year’s 12 Days of Giveaways series on Makeup and Beauty Blog, I wanted to go out with a BAG!
I meant bang… Go out with a bang. 🙂

I tried to do some after-Christmas shopping during lunch and unfortunately the shelves were already empty in a lot of stores. I guess everyone was smart, took today off and got their post-Christmas shopping done early.

Since I’m not wearing any make-up today, I’ll give you the deets on my super chic outfit. Giant red sweater with a moose on it, snowflake pj pants, and mismatched christmas slipper socks. Now top all this off with glasses that are literally taped together… I usually wear contacts, but I woke up with a super red eye and decided to give them a break. So yep. Taped glasses.
It hurts to look this good.

courtney says
Today I’m wearing Maui wowi (I think that’s how you spell it lol) and shatter from the urban decay ammo palette. When you blend these two beautiful glitzy eyeshadows they make a gorgeous golden greenish blue. (Kinda like a mermaid look) for blush I’m wearing targets private brand pixie in true peach. Peaches and corals are my favorite blush to wear!
Jeanette says
That tote would be perfect for work/a quick overnight bag!I love it! Now let’s see… Have I done any after Christmas shopping? Of course! Lol, I couldn’t resist the online sales, I scored season 4 of True Blood and an eye palette from Too Faced, my new favorite brand and coincidentally the brand of makeup I wore today. Past tense because I’m checking your blog before I go to sleep, haha, goodnight.

Great bag! I would probably use it for work, because I usually tend to throw everything in my bag (including my iPad and a small makeup bag with tons of lip products!!). Needless to say it all weighs my handbags down and they look overstuffed! This would be perfect! Thanks for the giveaway!

My husband(!) requested for hair product as a late Christmas gift. I bought him styling cream yesterday. He no longer has to steal my girly scented hair products!
Along with men’s styling cream I got nail polish remover. Someone at the local beauty store listed butter London nail polish remover as 99 cents. I have never seen butter London items go lower than $5. I hoarded 4 bottles.
Jen B says
I braved the mall briefly yesterday. Had to get my Stereo Rose!
rosy78 says
I really need better light in my room… applied too much blush this morning and noticed as I was driving to work. Ever happen to you?

Sitting here listening to my husband try to rebook the incorrect flights he booked back home…Happy Holidays everyone!
Cynthia F. says
If I won the Zella Tote bag, I’d take it everywhere!
ZULMA GARCIA says
I been looking for a bag like this! I got 3 kiddos. This would totally hold mamas “essentials” and the kids snacks, Ipad, toys…especially the “movies” snacks…bc buying candy from the movies is crazy!! On Christmas we spent $41 for a family of 5 just to watch the movie and I had my Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC (total fail)…I spent $50 on popcorn, candy, and drinks!!
Monica says
The Zella tote looks looks so versatile! I’d tote-ally use it everyday. Ha ha.

The only sort of after-Christmas shopping I did was buying a white elephant gift from Menard’s for a party I’m going to this Friday.

Snowed in today! No makeup, no shopping, just laundry and relaxing here at home!
Elizabeth says
My after Christmas shopping was at Target! I love that place. All of the Christmas stuff was 50% off so I grabbed some cute little glittery signs, a wreath box and a Christmas tree skirt. My friend got really cute stockings for her and her daughter. Oh! We also got 50 cent glass plates for Christmas cookie giveaways next year!

Megan says
I am cleaning house today…no fun.
ROBYN says
That is a wonderful bag! I see why you love it!
Stephanie says
I may just have to get that tote regardless to replace my current diaper bag if it’s loaded with pockets inside and out! No more looking for her outfits in the bottom of the bag if she spits up. 🙂
Emma B says
My New Year’s resolution is to workout three times a week.
Lisa says
The first place I’d take it is to out to lunch with my beautiful children!

This is a seriously nice tote bag, Karen! Thank you for the opportunity to enter…
Meg Walker says
I love this bag!
Lisa @ Lisa Living Well says
I would love to bring this to work or the gym…I could really use a new bag for both purposes!
Valerie says
I’m a sucker for tote bags–but never seem to buy the right one, despite repeated attempts. Maybe this could be the one. 🙂
auroragyps says
If I won this tote, I would bring it EVERYWHERE! Seriously, right now I’m using a LL Bean messenger bag/backpack combo thing as my “purse”, because I tend to pack it up like I’m a boy scout trying to be prepared for everything. I have other bags/totes, but I don’t like any of them as much I love this 12 year old thing that’s been through almost everything.
Lorraine says
I had to work the day after Christmas, but I did go out today and scored the Laura Mercier Glamour Wardrobe at Nordstrom for 40% off! I was so pleased with my bargain that I got the mini kohl pencil set too, which was still full priced but still a good deal anyway(works out to about $6 per pencil- not bad for this brand). I wish I could find butter London remover for 99 cents- someone marked that wrong, error in your favor, Tennyoceres! And I would take this bag everywhere- except for work where I have to have a clear plastic company issued purse. Yep. the wonderful world of retail.
Solangel says
Wow, this one would be really awesome!
Dana says
I have been searching for a replacement for my battered, holds-everything, black bag that I bought from Discount Dancewear about 15 years ago. I’ve managed to fit 4 pairs of shoes, a complete change of clothes, makeup and toiletries for a 2 week trip, 2 books, and multiple vitamin bottles in it and still had it pass as my “personal item” when boarding a plane. I think I may need this Zella bag!
Nou says
That’s such a gorgeous bag! I have been lurking around the web so far for break. Not much planned 🙁
Melanie says
LURVE this bag! It would definitely be my new work bag! As for shopping, I did a little yesterday but stayed away from all the clearence items. Too much of a fight to get there!

Boo says
My neck and back are in spasm from driving in a blizzard yesterday. Thank goodness for Advil and heating pads!
Monica says
I am a purse fiend … I would go nuts for a bag like this one! 🙂
indoorkitty says
Hmm, if I were to win this tote, the first place I’d take it to is the GYM!!! I’m so tired of wrestling in my old bag into the lockers; it puts up a really big fight and often loses but sits and stews for the next time it has to get put away. I think all the other gym patrons might think I’m a little cuckoo after I ranted and raved at it last time. It’s just awkward in there now. Le sigh.
Happy upcoming NYE K and T-modelmoney!
monika says
That bag looks so nice……perfect for 100 plus things that I carry when i need to run errands:)
Tatyana G says
This bag would travel with me everywhere. I have to little ones and I am always carrying lots of things – sippy cups, wipes, etc. This would be perfect.

Today I think my makeup was kind of crazy. I used Urban Decay Lounge over UD 27/4 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Mainline and Maybelline Color Tattoo in Tough as Taupe. Ended up being an iridescent blue/purple smokey eye.
Pradnyaa says
Preparing my new year resolutions. I’m breaking down things to a small step – about 5 minutes – everyday. I’ve seen it working around me and it will work for me in 2013 🙂

This looks like the perfect mom bag. It has enough room for my camera, kids snacks, and my 20 lip glosses. I like how it has the zippers in the front for keys so you don’t have to dig around. I’m going to check out the Zella line next time I go to Nordstrom, looks like they have some pretty cool stuff.
