The Pol\u00e8ne Num\u00e9ro Douze bag is my new favorite tote bag. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ahead of my trip to Miami, I needed a chic French tote bag<\/a> to carry my travel essentials like a laptop and makeup. I wanted a spacious bag that wasn\u2019t too bulky or heavy. The Pol\u00e8ne Number 12 bag fits the bill perfectly; it has a minimalist design that can be expanded at the upper edges if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are two ways to hold the \u201cCyme\u201d tote bag. The Pol\u00e8ne Num\u00e9ro Douze tote bag<\/a> has short handles for holding it in your hands as well as long straps for carrying it over the shoulder. A magnetic snap closure keeps the bag\u2019s contents securely inside, though the bag does not close completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I originally wanted the white leather version of this bag, but upon seeing the gray version, I fell in love! This bag currently comes in five colors: white (craie<\/em>), cognac, camel, black, and taupe. All of these bags are made of a grained leather texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pol\u00e8ne Number 12 tote bag was recently featured in season 2 of the hit Netflix TV show, Emily in Paris<\/em>. The camel bag was carried by Madeleine, Emily\u2019s boss, during her work trip to Paris! It just goes to show that this bag is perfect for all you working girls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can the Pol\u00e8ne Num\u00e9ro Douze \u201cCyme\u201d bag hold?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Just like the Number 12 mini bag, this larger tote bag is expandable. The upper corners have small magnets that keep them securely closed by default but can be pulled apart for extra space as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside, the Number 12 bag has nothing but a small leather pouch with a zipper that can be easily removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can the Pol\u00e8ne Num\u00e9ro Douze tote bag hold a laptop? Yes! This bag can easily keep your laptop safely tucked inside, including the case. I have a 13\u201d Macbook Air and it fits perfectly inside the Pol\u00e8ne Num\u00e9ro Douze tote with plenty of room to spare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This large Pol\u00e8ne tote bag measures 53 cm long by 32 cm high and has a depth of 10.5 cm. The interior flat leather pouch measures 22.5 cm long by 13 cm high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This bag, like all Pol\u00e8ne bags, was designed in Paris and made in Spain of high-quality leather. Its interior has a suede inner lining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
