I was bemused as a read a post on another handbag blog today. The writer admitted that she hadn’t bought a new handbag for three months with the sort of reluctance reserved for those who commit cardinal sins. I thought about my own wardrobe and realized that if not for my wonderful husband, who occasionally puts a purse with my birthday and Christmas gifts, years would go by before I’d receive a new accessory. While I’d love to have the budget to indulge in a new bag each season, I need to look for more evergreen indulgences. That’s why an affordable and timeless purse like this Twist Lock Handbag from Armani is right up my alley.
The golden turn-lock clasp gives this Armani purse a bit of vintage flair, but there’s nothing to really date this purse. Its lines are clean, and its black color a classic. I can’t imagine it turning a lot of heads, but it’ll serve you well in any situation or season.
It seems simple, but the design is actually really unique. Twist the clasp and you’ll open up a small front pocket. Lift the larger flap surrounding it up and then you’ve got the main interior compartment. The accordion style makes this mid-sized space even more user-friendly. I’d appreciate more than the single zip pocket we have here, but the segmented design means organization isn’t really a problem.
The $180 is very affordable for a soft leather bag, especially one as timeless as this.
