Leave it to two very worldly sisters to design a bag you can tote the globe over and don with chic confidence wherever you end up. Leona and Hasna Erziak, of a Belgian-Morroccan family, design ultra-feminine bags with a real sense of edge, names included – each bag has a boy’s moniker!
A standout from the Fall/Winter collection, the Matt is divinely simple yet devilish in style. Naughty? Lush, soft skin teases you with maximum touch-ability. Calf-hair brings a tempting sense of luxe to an everyday bag, while red nubuck is obviously hot for the holidays – and the rest of the year, too. And nice? A seventies-vibe to this shoulder bag, complete with glamorous gold hardware-trimmed corners, makes it cool and accessible. Best of all, the Matt is sexy without being overt about it.
Whether you soften up with sand, go basic with black, or turn up the sizzle with red, you can style it up or down. Channel Jerry Hall in her heyday with skinny pants and stilettos or make it informal with your daily boyfriend jeans. Either way you’re chic and you know it. Go take on the world. Ponyhair, $1,950, and nubuck, $1,400, at Lena Erziak.
Pair with: A sultry mood calls for a smoldering shoe. Giuseppe always delivers, but this one isn’t too over-the-top. Neutral suede and relaxed grommets tone down the sexy, strappy shape. Giuseppe Zanotti Eyelet-Detailed Suede Sandals, $695.
