How do I love L.L.Bean? Let me count the ways...

My family is an L.L.Bean family. None of those Vera Bradley duffels or Lands End totes—it's L.L.Bean or nothing. I alone own no fewer than two Adventure Duffel Bags and three Boat & Totes (all with my name or monogram, of course). So when I heard that Beans, as we affectionately call it, was coming out with a new 'Signature' line, I couldn't have been more excited.

The full line doesn't launch until March, but Beans just debuted two select items available for order now. First up is the Bean's Heritage Tote ($189), a warm brown leather tote that has a vintage feel, but is perfectly modern at the same time. Must. Own. This. Bag.

The other bag is the Saltwash Canvas Boat & Tote ($65). Similar to the original boat & totes in style, this version comes in a great indigo color, and is more slouchy than the more stiff canvas we're used to. This size (the only one available at the moment) is a little bit bigger than the large size traditional totes.

I can't wait to see what else they come out with this spring!
