Blake Lively was spotted in character as Gossip Girl's Serena van der Woodsen in Kotur's Wallace Gold Leaf Haircalf ($1,038) in NYC's Central Park. The haircalf brown/gold leather gives the bag a very vintage feel (it's modeled after a classic handbag Fiona Kotur found in the Parisian vintage Clignancourt market), and I was surprised to see it on Serena's arm and not Blair's. While this handbag isn't my personal style, it has a timeless quality to it and is carefully crafted with suede lining, interior zipper compartment including ones for mobile/blackberry and it can be locked or double-locked with a hidden key (love the safety feature!). I don't think the bag works particularly well for someone in their 20s, but for an older demo this seems like a versatile everyday bag.

What do you think about the Kotur Wallace Gold Leaf Haircalf bag?

  • I had actually just looked at that bag, I loved it in python but I'm in california.

    I wish it came in a solid color, but I'm in my 20s and I would definitely carry this.
