I know this kinda sorta looks like Anya Hindmarch but the details make it so much edgier. That little pocket is so cute but the distressed hardware is what gives the bag that slight edge. A tall tote is great for laptops and magazines but you can’t find the small things, so that pocket is essential to making this bag usable (there are also 2 interior pockets). The zippers are mostly for aesthetics rather than function but it breaks up the mass of the bag so it isn’t one big blah. I love the way the straps go partial way down and how all the elements are staggered in perfect proportion from each other. I’m way over analyzing but your eyes are trained to find balance and when looking at this bag, they are happy! At Saks Fifth Avenue for $725.
