I am currently obsessed with blue patent, I picked up a pair of Louboutin blue patent pumps with blue suede trim that are to die for in New York last month and everything blue patent has been catching my eye since. Jil Sander has a great blue patent bag but the Lanvin blue patent pochette is by far the most stylish I’ve seen. I have not found this in the US yet and only have seen it on the German site, My Theresa (a fantastic source of designer goods!) I absolutely love the brown leather handle and strap, it makes the bag more casual not to mention way more hip! There is only a little bit of understated silver hardware framing the flap, so it won’t be that heavy. The monogrammed interior (so much more chic than having monogram on the exterior of the bag, I am all about reverse snobbery!) has two compartments and a zippered pocket. It’s about 12 inches wide so it is generously sized but still will work at night. As I always advice, unless you are really a messenger, remove the messenger strap. The red patent is just as cute but I am crazy about the blue! $1,848 at My Theresa.
ohhh… *sigh* i keep promising myself i’ll stop reading your site because you induce such urges to splurge that my wallet can’t take. but this is an addiction i refuse to cure…
Yes, reverse snobbery!
Do you think the strap can stay put to make it look more casual chic?
This is my first time here and I have to say that I love your site!!!…..I usually don’t go for patent accessories/handbags but the large blue Lanvin Patent Pochette…Gorgeous!!
you’re right! that blue patent pochette is a beauty… tried to buy but mytheresa.com doesn’t even have it anymore. *sigh*
