Great bag by any standard but this is super affordable so it is my Frugal Snob pick of the month! You get the all around hobo with the perfect touch of detail in the braided handles. Simple hardware, all leather and amazing colors - all for $330! What more do you want? A big designer label? Well, you're in luck because Tano is certainly making a name for itself and is known to be the hipsters choice for trendy bags. And you know, real hipsters are starving artists and can't afford Hermes =) The purple is nice and pretty, nothing too shocking and is actually great for year round use. The gray of course is more versatile, and yes, gray is the new black. I know, you've heard but it bears repeating because gray is an exceptionally important color this Fall. At Neiman Marcus for $330.

  • This is a surprisingly nice bag! Seriously! I love the handles!! I have a Biasa bag that when I wear it over my shouder everyone asks where I bought it. A braided strap, gives a simple bag excitement & sophistication - in this case, job well done!

    Simple and chic. The price can't be beat either. Great pick.

    The gray bag looks tanish. Have you seen it in person?

    I got a bag from Tano a few months ago. It just so happens that the dye on the bag bled onto my summer whites and neutrals. It was tragic. As of now, the color on the bag is quite faded from it's original condition. It's only been 3 months!!

  • These bags are OK. I really like their bright colored bags in patent leather. I've seen a huge selection on www.Shopmasons.com. Most of the Tano bags are under $300. The colors are perfect for summer.

    Tano's come a long way. I've seen the bags in Bergdorf's 5F for the past few years, and they're pretty hot.

    My girlfriend has several Tano bags, and she's always talking about how great they are.

    I ordered a boogie bucket on Sunday in violet with black trim from musthavebag.com after opening a $20 off coupon from them in my email. For $199, it's worth a try!
