Vanessa Bruno reminds us of the beauty of a simple black tote back with this lush leather offering.
The shape of this tote really is special. The gently curved top makes a real statement. So many unusually shaped bags compromise storage space, but not this one. Others appear so unusual that they jar the senses, but this retains its elegance.
The black leather is a safe choice but it’s also a smart one. It makes this tote a great anytime and anywhere bag. The cowhide doesn’t demand attention but it is beautiful, soft to touch with a gentle weathered grain.
The spacious interior has all the pockets we’d expect to find, the usual configuration of a zippered pouch and pair of open gadget slips. I wish there were a few extra features to make this enormous space easier to manage, but I can’t fault Vanessa Bruno for meeting our expectations.
That’s especially true for the price. At $729 it’s relatively affordable for a bag that will stay in vogue long after it leaves the store.
