Nancy Gonzalez Crocodile Striped Tote

This striped crocodile tote from Nancy Gonzalez is really unique and interesting, not to mention a thousand times better looking in person.  The strips of crocodile meticulously sewn on to the suede gives it the accordion looking pleats that I find most appealing.  It’s like getting the look of fringes without actual fringes.  I’m also into contrasting textures that we’re seeing a lot of this season (Derek Lam’s Henrietta contrasts suede with python)– suede and crocodile is an unusual combination as well and offers us the look of luxe exotic without the price tag.  This pretty baby is $2,750, not bad for crocodile and the handles are croc which makes it look substantial.  Nancy Gonzalez Crocodile Striped Tote at Saks here!
