Many moons ago, getting a great designer discount meant taking a trip to the closest outlet mall and spending an entire day browsing the racks. Thankfully, we don't have to do that anymore with all of the dedicated online outlets we can shop at home, and one of our favorites is Kate Spade Outlet .

The discounts that shine the brightest and stand out are on the abundance of handbags that we have for the picking. The brand has whatever style you need, whether it's a convenient crossbody or a roomy weekender bag . But the one purse that we have our eyes on is the Jana Tote that's currently up to 78% off right now — but only for a super limited time.

Simple sophistication is that this tote is all about. It's made from Saffiano leather that features a crosshatch patterned finish that gives the leather a textured feel. This particular type of treatment also helps protect the leather by making it more durable and weather-resistant, which is a major plus. If you get caught in the rain on the way to work or while traveling, this tote bag can withstand the moisture and keep what you have inside from getting wet.

The tote has plenty of room inside to pack in everything you need for a busy day. It measures about 12 inches by 13 inches, and is just over 4 inches in depth. When you unzip the top of the bag there's a large main compartment and a few slip pockets on the sides for smaller items. It's not the biggest bag we've ever seen, but shoppers say that it's "the perfect size and holds more than it looks like it would."
