Once in awhile, all it takes is one detail to elevate a bag from drab to fab. While the shape of this black leather Chloé bag is not exactly inspiring – unless you count a toiletry case as inspiration – the wristlet simply makes it. Let’s face it: without the wristlet, this bag is a snooze. But thanks to a stiff metal plaque, the strap looks like a true bracelet. Great for cocktail hour, but maybe even better as an everyday bag for running errands. Keep this in your big tote for your wallet, phone, and keys, so you can grab them in a snap for quick stops. And if you happen to have a cocktail date after work (lucky you), you’ll have an evening-appropriate bag on hand. Or I guess I should say, on wrist. On Net-a-Porter
