Coccinelle takes a leap forward in contemporary design with this Shibuya shoulder bag.
I’ve always appreciated the label’s high quality leathers, but I’ve never seen it putting the skin to such good use. The Shibuya looks ultra modern with its streamlined box shape and deep geometric seams. However as it doesn’t bow to trends, it should continue to appear cutting edge for several seasons.
I’m smitten by the timeless appeal of this black bag, but it’s not our only option. Coccinelle also offers the Shibuya in a rich chocolate brown and a paler cream. I worry that the cream version will get grubby, but any of the variations should easily work its way into your wardrobe.
The Shibuya isn’t just a looker either. It’s fairly slender but well organized, with a main compartment and zippered pocket built in to the flap. Its single strap is also long and wide for easy and comfortable carrying.
The Shibuya calls to mind the head turning designs of Alexander Wang and Jil Sander. However it’s much more attainable than anything these esteemed designers put their names to. At $512 the Shibuya offers sophisticated good looks for style conscious bargain hunters.
