Reworked into a more relaxed shape, the already ultra-functional “Nevis” tote has been taken a step beyond. I used the original nylon “Nevis” as a diaper bag and passed it down to my sister who loved it as much as I did. But in no way is Anya Hindmarch‘s raw leather uprade, with a higher level of tailoring and more streamlined straps, any diaper bag in disguise.
This organic-esque tote, with extra-large outer pockets (the old “Nevis” has patch pockets on the front and back, giving it a utilitarian diaper-bag look) is a sleek and elegant carryall. The thick, flat straps (also new and I wish the older version had them) are comfy on the shoulder, and they also add to the purified look. This is slouchy luxury – the way it opens up extra-wide, along with the simplicity of the handles – that looks all-natural, via the hide-like leather and raw-cut pockets. A no-brainer bag for the busy girl on the go. At Saks Fifth Avenue for $895.
