Last month we took a look at Zac Posen's newest, the 'Abbey' satchel, a highly structured and rather beautiful new handbag. I took a look at it myself this week and I was very surprised by something... Usually, my color of choice is black (shush, its not boring - its chic!) but this time I'm extremely drawn towards the red. I swear, it looks even better in person. What a fiery shade and a fantastic color to bring out the sparse, tasteful gold detailing and the really, really, really cool contoured patent seaming! This seems like such a fun bag to take to lunch with the girls - its got the little metal feet that protect it from the ground should you set it down, and a very yummy suede lining on the inside. Oh, and, remember: it costs US$1500.
