There is something so great about this mirror bag from Anya Hindmarch, the sleek lines and simplicity really lends itself to the flashy bling bling super shine. But what I really love is that Anya's bags are always so easy to use, totally functional with pockets, zips, compartments inside and out. No need to suffer for style, you know there are those amazing bags you love but can't use everyday because you can't ever find your keys or phone and everything just sloshes around on the bottom and gets all scrunched up. I find that when I use my practical everyday bag, I won't switch it out for a week. But my all style and no function bags, I use for a day and the next day I grab the user friendly one again. I just want one bag that is fabulous beyond belief AND has all the features I need to avoid the frustrations of constantly digging around. Outer pockets!!! Please!!! We don't always practice function over fashion but how is it that I have so many bags but none are exactly perfect? Just sheer mathematics should ensure that at least one of my bags fit all my criteria. I guess if this mythical bag existed, we would all stop buying bags. Ha, NOT!! But still, I would like a bag that has everything and this one is close to being there. Only if it were in some sort of exotic and really really light weight. At Net-a-Porter for $1150.

This bag is really nice. I too, am a seeker of function in an everyday bag. I have a thing for pockets, preferably inside and out. I can't stand searching for stuff in my purse, especially when the weather is foul! There is nothing worse than having naturally curly hair, standing outside your car, at the mall, in the rain, searching for your keys, with bags and your Starbucks Latte, getting completely drenched!
Bring on the stylish, yet practical in design bag and I'm there!
I'm not a fan of the reflectiveness of this bag. I keep imagining carrying it on a sunny day and blinding others and myself.

hahaha!! story of my life.
Kelly - chic de la chic! I love this bag, it is on my wishlish and close to being in my wardrobe for exactly the same reasons you mentioned. Stylish, functional and big enough for all the requisite 'stuff' for work or toting around baby.
I love this bag. I am all about function and style being together. Pockets, zippers, compartments, I need them in all my bags. lol
