Halston epitomizes chic urban fashions with this sexy Allen satchel.
The front reminds me of the night sky with its black suede finish dotted with tiny star-like studs. The dark fabric is complemented by buttery soft black leather panels on the side. The combination of black on black is classic, but I’m not sure that suede will look so pristine after a few seasons.
While it’s bound to show a little wear in time, when the suede is at its peak the silver studs and matching hardware really pops. The tiny studs we see on the body are mirrored with larger square studs on the strap’s comfy shoulder rest. It might look a little edgy, but its creature comforts like this that make a high-end bag like this so appealing.
The interior is generous without being overwhelming; just the right size to stash the things you need without dominating your look. But I wish there were a few more pockets. While the zippered pouch gives us a secure space for smaller items, some slip pockets would have made all the difference.
At $2,195, the Allen seems overly expensive for its leather and suede finish. But if you’ve got the cash to spare, it’ll look brilliant with black skinny jeans, some spiked ankle boots, and loads of attitude!
