Product Information
Full details
The Ted Baker Paolina Raffia Summer Tote Bag is designed for the style-conscious adult looking for a versatile accessory for seasonal outings. Its key benefit is the combination of a trendy woven raffia aesthetic with practical carrying options, including both fixed handles and a detachable strap. However, users should note that its compact dimensions (18cm x 18cm x 14cm) limit it to carrying only daily essentials, making it less suitable for larger items like tablets or water bottles.

FAQs
Can this bag fit a tablet?
No, at 18cm in length and height, it is designed for small essentials and will not accommodate most standard tablets.
Is the material waterproof?
The raffia material is not waterproof; it is best to avoid heavy rain to protect the integrity of the weave and interior lining.
How do I attach the shoulder strap?
Use the metal hooks located at the ends of the detachable strap to clip onto the dedicated D-rings on the side of the bag.
What is the primary material used?
The bag features a woven raffia exterior with refined leather detailing.
Can I machine wash the bag?
No, machine washing will likely destroy the woven structure. Always spot clean gently by hand.
Troubleshooting
Shoulder strap feels loose during use
Check the lobster-claw clasps on the strap to ensure they are fully seated into the D-rings and clicking securely into place.
Zip is sticking or difficult to pull
Check for any raffia fibers that may have been caught in the track. Gently clear any debris and ensure the bag is not overpacked, which can cause tension on the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your tote for use, simply attach the provided shoulder strap to the side D-rings if you prefer a hands-free experience. When not in use, keep the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the raffia from drying out or fading. As the bag is made from woven material with leather accents, avoid overstuffing the main compartment to prevent the seams from stretching. Clean the exterior gently with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth. If the bag gets wet, wipe it down immediately and allow it to air dry naturally; do not use heat sources like hair dryers, as these can warp the materials.
