Vanessa Bruno Athe Slouchy Tote
How many times have you searched for a well-made tote that's spacious as well as universal for everyday use, plus retails for under $500. And not designed by Dooney or Coach. Not like I have anything against those brands, but on most occasions when I get a “help me find” type of email the person on the other end says, please no Dooney or Coach. Can you blame them? Everybody and their mom, grandma, sister, aunt, maybe an uncle and even pet own a coach type authentic bag or (unsightly) replica.
Anyway, if on the hunt for a non-signature everyday tote, look no more, check out this Vanessa Bruno Athe Slouchy Tote, it's going for a mere $334. Such a great find.
The slouchy-style body is dressed in black leather (only avail in black at this time) and features double arm straps that is just the right length to carry on your arm or over the shoulder (drop 8.5”). Other decorative features include the canvas panel detailing, buckle details on the corners, studs at the top, press stud fastenings, and a small zipped pouch pocket on the inside. The bag measures in at 13" width x 13" height x 8" depth. So it’s the perfect size to carry really anything – laptop, files, wallet, etc. Again, only $334!
I love this tote, actually I've fallin' head-over-heels for this whole outfit. The skinny jeans, sexy
Vanessa Bruno Athe top,
Christian Louboutin pumps and the
Marc by Marc Jacobs necklace. All which can be found at
net-a-porter.
