ShopBop Fetish Leads to... Alexander Wang.

I thought I would finally share a couple of photos of my new purchase which I have been completely wearing-in from the day the package arrived.




After weeks of contemplating, I finally decided to go through with my first Alexander Wang purchase, more specifically, the Large Emile Tote. I have not been able to change bags since receiving this little splurge of mine while on holidays, and I was pleasantly surprised the day the ShopBop package arrived and was waiting for me in my hotel room. This bag has all the credentials I need in a new everyday bag, and then some. The beautiful rose gold toned hardware on the corners of the bag are perfectly chic ways to protect the corners from wearing out too soon. The size of the Emile Tote is precisely large enough that I can fit my Macbook, along with a few other things, and the versatility of being able to wear the bag with the handles or with the shoulder straps is also a definite plus to this purchase. Alexander Wang simply knows how to make an everyday bag that looks understatedly chic, yet wearable. Striving for an entire closet full of Alexander Wang goodies starts now, while my ShopBop addiction seems to be getting worse (in a good way, of course!).

I adore Alexander Wang's bags - I just got my Rocco in grey/blue with rose gold hardware and I'm in love. I love the black leather paired with rose gold - a "new" classic combo that I'm sure will stay in style for years.

Love this bag, the rose-gold hardware is a big win! Is it terribly heavy? I know my Diego is a real workout!
