The Goldenbleu Parker was released in 2007 but still remains an stylish choice if you’re looking for a roomy, multi-functional yet elegant handbag. The Parker comes in a smaller tote version as well as the larger Weekender bag. The style is simple and traditional, but the result is tres chic.
I love the look of patent leather. It can take an ordinary purse and give it extra pizazz. The black patent sheen on this Parker Weekender is perfect. It isn’t overly glossy but has a little shine to keep it from looking too casual. You can also opt for the white patent leather if you prefer a lighter color.
Even if you’re not planning a weekend away, the Parker is a great choice for a practical bag. This Goldenbleu would be stylish for the office as well as overnight trips. The look is professional and put together, which is essential for work-wear. In my opinion, it would probably have more use in that respect anyway. Unless you’re particularly clever at packing, the Weekender might not be quite enough room for everything you need for a getaway. However, you could get a lot of use out of it as a carry-on when traveling by airplane.
Whatever your lifestyle, the Goldenbleu Parker is a lovely way to accessorize almost any outfit. The multiple pockets inside the handbag are handy for organization, and the extended zipper closure that reaches from the bottom of one side to the other allows for easy access. The Weekender retails for $895, but look for a bargain with this gem of last fall.
