Designer Handbags

I am still on the hunt for the perfect everyday bag that can sling across my body or provide ample space and a perfect slouch. It is the *new* New Yorker in me to look casual chic on the streets of Manhattan. Barneys is one of the stores to shop at if you are in NYC and their line of handbags offers distinct variety with an affordable tag. For a slouchy everyday bag we have the Barneys New York Sac Bag with Bamboo Detail. I wish the website offered dimensions but the bags shape seems to be large yet not bulky. Lucky for me I am on my way out the door to Barneys as we speak so I can check it out if it is available. Buy it via Barneys for $595.

Today Vlad and I strolled the streets of SoHo. Seriously, if you have never been to SoHo put it on your to-do list. Many people have a misconception that the rich and famous shop on 5th Ave, when really SoHo is where it is at. Since Vlad and I have been spend happy, today we just browsed and enjoyed an amazing lunch. The street fashion there is very chic and laid-back. At that moment I realized I desperately need an across the body bag. I am not fully sure what bag will be the ‘one’ but I am determined to find a messenger that reflects my desire to be stylish and laid back all at once. I stumbled across the Bottega Veneta Woven Messenger Bag because of its signature woven leather along with its removable and adjustable shoulder strap. If you have touched a BV bag, you are well aware of the supple leather used. Nickel hardware is used to offset the leather and there is an inside zip pocket and canvas lining. This bag is a square shape, measuring 13″H X 13″L X 2″W. While I think I am more in the search for a rectangular bag, I will keep this beautiful BV number in the back of my mind. Available through Saks for $1350.
