I have always loved the combination of black and nude, especially when it’s a soft blushy nude, especially when it’s on a bag made of leather, and most especially when that bag is made by Chloe. When you combine it with the retro flair and everyday practicality of a shoulder bag like this one, I’m basically in love.
The contrast between the distressed black patent of the body of the bag and the smooth nude leather of the straps creates a sophisticated vibe on what would otherwise be a very rock-n-roll flavored accessory. The minimal pleating on the front pockets adds volume, and the rectangular shape with the smoothed-off edges gives the bag a retro look that is reminiscent of some of my favorite vintage 80’s accessories.
The combination of the dual straps with the removable shoulder straps gives you options for how to wear the bag. I can see it as a very feminine touch held by hand, or slung low over your shoulder for a more casual look. The 16″ x 10″ x 6″ size makes it a great everyday bag that will hold not just the essentials, but also more than a few extras.
There isn’t much I don’t like about this Strappy Shoulder Bag by Chloe, including the adorable front pockets. The contrasting horizontal stripe across the bag allows them to blend in, and creates another interesting focal point on an already fabulous bag. At $665, it is a more than reasonable investment for a super-fashionable everyday bag.
