If you asked me what a Betulla would look like, I’d describe a hefty and awkward looking girl, a nice person at heart but a bit of a wallflower. I’d never imagine that ugly sounding name would belong to this beautiful accessory.
Salvatore Ferragamo really has outdone itself this time. It’s got such sophisticated clean lines, and its gentle purple leather is one of the loveliest shades I’ve seen. Salvatore Ferragamo calls it cemento; I just call it heaven. If you’ve always thought there was no place for purple in your wardrobe, this pale hue may be the one to change your mind.
All too often designers focus on the exterior but forget about functionality. Not Salvatore Ferragamo though, who makes us feel really pampered here. The generously sized interior is divided with a large central pocket. There are smaller pouches in the walls to keep your valuables and gadgets organized. Metal feet help protect that lovely leather when you set the bag down, and the leather centers cushion our shoulders when they’re carrying those stylish chain straps.
Predictably though, we pay a premium for all those perks. However that heady mix of practicality and poise leads me to believe the Betulla is a great investment at $1250.
