Alexander McQueen Heroine Small Top-Handle Satchel: A Cut Above
By Bag Snob Kelly on May 30, 2012 12:00 pm Kelly Cook

I’ve just found my new not-so-basic black bag. Tina and I are all about the LBB at the moment, and while she’s torn between an abundance of options, I’ve found my dark hero in Alexander McQueen’s Heroine. The shape: just amazing, the details: avant-garde yet totally ladylike. The genius of the McQueen sensibility is the flawless mergence of the wild and wearable.

I am loving the cutout flap – it’s sexy and naughty without sacrificing classic design or proper structure. Since the handle must slide through it every time you open up your purse, it might be a minor hassle. But no pain, no gain! And my closet definitely needs to gain this number. At Saks Fifth Avenue for $2,395.

Pair with: Valentino is also versed in delivering a twisted ladylike classic. Snap up their rockstud-and-lace pumps while they’re on sale and treasure them for seasons. On Net-a-Porter for $597 (from $995).

    How elegant this top-handle satchel it is! I really very love it. Alexander McQueen is always one of my favourite brands.

    The bag Zoe is carrying looks like a different size. Is her bag the large size or the same size as on Saks website?

    in the wide landscape of handbags that I daily use to look at, I find this bag really NEW, which is not a little thing to realize if you consider the large number of bags produced in this fashion world. I love the shape, the new cut and it positively surprised me. Not easy if you consider that I live in Milan (Italy) the fashion city…
