Timeless design and modern details combine in this Nelida tote from Bally.
It seems counterintuitive to describe an accessory as both timeless and modern, but strangely the Nelida manages to be both. Black leather handbags will always withstand trends, especially when hardware’s kept to a minimum. But the Nelida’s unique curved shape and sweeping stitching brings just the right amount of contemporary flair.
Bally backs up the Nelida’s striking good looks with a really smart design. Its top handle is complemented by a detachable shoulder strap. It’s wide enough for comfortable carrying on a regular day, but if you’ve loaded it up and need extra padding you can add the detachable strap panel. Its ample interior offers enough space for holding everything you need and a few extras besides. I’d prefer the satiny twill lining was lighter, as it’s hard to see all our items amongst the black fabric, but this is a minor inconvenience. At least with internal open and zip fastening pockets at the ready, organization should be a breeze.
At $1,495 the Nelida is no bargain, but it’s not an exorbitant amount of money to spend on a stylish bag made to serve.
