The Nikki Bag by Rebecca Minkoff- Large 19″x15″ $595 Small $575 15″x12″
Celeb favorite Rebecca Minkoff gives our young Bag Snobs another rockin’ and rollin’ (and tres affordable!) tote bag for Spring 2009. I previewed the Spring ’09 collection two weeks ago in NYC and found the line to be well constructed and of good quality for this price point (mostly under $600). Trust me, I looked at every zipper and each single seam; even turning the bags inside out to inspect the interior and have to admit that this is one of few bag designers who hits the mark at the highly in demand under $500 price point. I don’t own a Rebecca Minkoff but the Nikki tote above (in 8 delicious colors for spring – chocolate, mint, cream, cranberry, black, periwinkle, nautical blue and tangerine– and two sizes) may just be my first. An easy carry all with minimal hardware and supple leather, it’s a grab and go when I’m running around with my son (who just turned 4 this weekend! He asked right before bed “So I’ll be 4 when I wake up?” And this morning asked me hopefully “Am I 5 yet?” So eager to grow up!!!)
If you can’t wait for Spring, in Fall colors are in full bloom at Shopbop.com
