This is quite a departure from the distressed leather motorcycle Le Dix bag we’ve come to associate Balenciaga with and we absolutely love the change. The red patent leather is slick as laquer and the rounded kelly shape is adorable. Unlike the B Bag, the logo on the polished hardware is subtle and tasteful. It is the perfect bag to wear to a luncheon with this season’s Balenciaga bubble skirt suit. We usually don’t like modern interpretation of the kelly bag but in this case, it works beautifully. $1095 at Barney’s New York 212.826.8900

This bag is just great! I already went out and bought it…it’s nice to have a different shape in the bag wardrobe…thanks as always for your great tips!
