DKNY is the kind of line that doesn’t really seem to have a solid aesthetic of its own, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It follows the trends, but keeps them classic. This leather tote is a great example of how DKNY interprets a traditional ladylike design for a new generation.
The brown leather on this bag is nice and neutral. A little too neutral, if you ask me. Frankly, I’m just get tired of “medium brown.” Still, the color ensures its versatility, even if it does leave me longing for something a little more colorful.
The shape is curvaceous, but very structured, which creates a nice, feminine balance. I love the minimal use of embellishment. Actually, there really isn’t any embellishment, save the turn-lock fastening front flap pocket. This is a great detail, however, with a nicely worked shaped to the flap and a simple and elegant clasp.
This a great timeless bag at a great price. For $325, this tote will take you through several seasons, and even years, of fashion ups and downs.
