I have to admit that it was love at first sight for me when I first laid my eyes on this gorgeous tote from Henry Beguelin—the Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote:

Do you love it, too? It is just so EXQUISITE! It is elegent, sexy and flirty. The brown alligator-embossed leather is beautiful and luxurious, while the woven top handles provide a touch of additional lovely texture. The buckled straps that create a gathered top keep it edgy and stylish, too. And if you look closely, it actually also sports stitching details that are cute additions as well. I must admit that I’m not really fond of hanging charms in bags, but the simple, yet sweet, hanging stick figure logo charm on this one is quite charming, and I like it.

This Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote is boho-inspired and reminiscent of the very popular Fendi Spy bag that I love, too.

Spring is set to enter anytime soon and this Henry Beguelin Alligator-Embossed Pleated Tote is just perfect to keep you looking on-trend this spring. Pair it with this lovely bohemian dress from Chloe to give off that boho-chic vibe.

Diane von Furstenberg Kelli Hobo: Another DVF Beauty

For those who love the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo, here’s another Diane von Furstenberg beauty that you might want to add to your must-have list as well—the Diane von Furstenberg Kelli Hobo:

Diane von Furstenberg Kelli Hobo

See its different looks:

It is a bit inspired from the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo, but is more streamlined. It has the same Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo chain-link detailing, but as you can see it has been kept so minimal and placed only at the middle portion of the bag. Ruchings had instead been added, as well as piping at the front and back and whipstitched edges at the top.

It’s not as flashy as the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo, but it’s nothing short of snazzy, either. It has its own elegant and luxurious feel, and carries itself rather well. In fact, I love how classy and chichi it looks. And of course, just like any other DVF, it’s incredibly functional with its roomy interior and extra pocket on the inside. Plus, you might just be happy to know that it retails for a much cheaper price than the Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Hobo—it’s only $675.00 at Shopbop.com.

If you’re quite unsure about white bags (being an easy magnet for dirt and all), you’ll be glad to know that this Diane von Furstenberg Kelli Hobo also comes in black.

The Indah Lena Crocheted Hobo had been crocheted and hand-beaded with metallic beads. It sports a long shoulder strap that allows you to carry it as a shoulder bag or as a crossbody bag.

The Indah Lena Crocheted Hobo is the perfect example of shimmering sophistication. I find it sleek and classy. The crochet design makes it an easygoing purse that you can carry for your everyday casual look, while the added metallic beads provide the right amount of texture and edge, which make this bag perfect for that sophisticated office style.
