Some of our latest threadjacks include:
Gorgeous! And I love that the straps and hardware look substantial enough to do some heavy lifting–I usually walk to work, so I carry everything from a change of shoes to “emergency stockings” (darn those runs!) in my purse.
TPS–I am starting to think that you and I do not mesh style-wise. This bag is trendy, tacky and gold hardware like that, particularly on the bottom, will scratch up and not last. What a waste of a purchase.
My taste tends more toward classic–and if someone walked into my firm with that bag, people would think she was playing “Dress Up Attorney.” NSFW.
I think it probably depends on location/firm. A bag like that would totally fly at my office, although I wouldn’t carry it to court. Admittedly I don’t like it $700 worth but I disagree that it’s NSFW.
Doesn’t it seem awfully big? Almost like a briefcase.
Actually, it’s not as big as it looks. I have it in white, and I always get compliments on it. It’s one of my go-to handbags when I wear a camel or deep beige colored trench or winter coat. Great selection, TPS!
