October Prime Day deals are in full swing, with no signs of stopping! With discounts on everything from fashion wardrobe staples and footwear finds (think Merrell Moab Boots and New Balance sneakers) to home goods and popular beauty buys, there’s no shortage of great sales — including discounts on luxury items. Amazon is offering sales on a select few designer handbags, and we have our sights set on Marc Jacobs’ The Tote Bag that’s $40 off.
For two days only, you can save on the iconic Marc Jacobs The Tote Bag at Amazon’s Shop by Shopbop’s storefront. What makes this bag an icon, you ask? When it debuted in 2019, the Marc Jacobs tote bag became a legend in the world of handbags: It was one of the few purses that combined functionality and fun, and was quickly adopted by style tastemakers like Kendall Jenner, Emily Ratajkowski, and Lucy Hale. Plus, it was designed by Marc Jacobs, who, since launching his eponymous label in 1984, has always been known for his playful, forward-thinking approach that runs through his designs — especially evident with The Tote Bag.
This on-trend, functional, and minimalist purse is everything you could ask for in your everyday bag. It’s made of canvas and features twin rolled handles, a top zipper closure, interior compartments for organization, and the recognizable screen-printed logo. Thanks to detachable straps, you can wear it as a handbag or as a relaxed crossbody or shoulder bag. It also folds easily when you need to take it on trips, and fits an average-sized laptop and other daily essentials, making it the perfect weekender, work bag, or laptop bag. The Slate Green colorway that’s on sale today acts as a neutral, matching with fall favorites like baggy jeans and white T-shirts or cute knit dresses and loafers.
With the hashtag #marcjacobstotebag garnering 295.6 million views on TikTok and Google searches for the bag surging by 450 percent this month, demand for this tote has never been greater. So before it sells out, get your hands on the canvas tote bag to step up your accessory game this fall and beyond.

What reviewers say: “I am a teacher and I use this as my work bag! This bag can hold my laptop, planner, wallet, keys, bento box, bag with all my laptop accessories, folders, some makeup, my water bottle, and I still have room. I’m also nursing my son and I’m pumping while at work and even with everything I just mentioned I can throw my pump bag in my bag without zipping it up and walk to and from the school since I work in the city.”

What Is Amazon Prime Big Deal Days?
Prime Big Deal Days, which kicked off today and runs through tomorrow night, is the fall installment of Amazon’s Prime Day 2023 sales extravaganza.
This exclusive two-day event offers limited-time price drops on thousands of products across Amazon, including Amazon fashion essentials, like women’s sweaters, fall jackets, wireless bras, Amazon-shopper-loved leggings, popular Amazon beauty products, top-rated tech, and everything in between. Prime Day only happens twice a year, with Big Deal Days being the last of 2023, so it’s an ideal time to stock up on clothes for fall and winter.
If you’re the planning type, you could also use the day as an opportunity to get your holiday shopping done earlier than usual for the women on your list. You likely won’t see lower prices any other time of year, so make Amazon Prime Big Deal Days count!
