It is no secret that I love, love, love exotics. I never stop obsessing over the latest and greatest examples. Walking into a Nancy Gonzalez boutique is like the world’s best candy store for me. Beautiful colors and texture and the totally unique aspect of every single bag draws me in. Her collection includes 150 different styles and over 200 colors. A veritable rainbow of luxury.
The designer is a native Columbian who looks to her rich colorful country and resources for inspiration and materials. In my humble opinion, a Nancy Gonzalez handbag should be one to which every bagista should aspire to have in her collection! With so many options, what’s a girl to choose? A basic clutch beginning in the $900 range or a major piece that tops out at over $4,000? A beautiful bright color or basic neutrals such as black or brown? It’s such a personal choice, I’m going to leave that up to you to decide and simply showcase one of my (current) favorites!
Right now, I’m loving sapphire blue handbags ranging from cobalt to deep navy. I’m looking away from my obsession with hobos to more ladylike styling. I’m still loving the oversize bag though, it’s hard to go small for any length of time in my world. So, the Crocodile Bowler Top Handle Bag in denim is the perfect bag for me!
The lady-like styling with over-sized and rounded shape softens it just enough to make the bowler perfect for casual denim days to dressy Jackie-O shift dresses. I love the beautiful color because it is more than black or brown yet remains neutral enough to wear with practically any color.
Who wouldn’t want to travel with a luxurious exotic piece of luggage?

In recent years, the handbag world has been loving fun, edgy bags covered in studs and fringe. Shapes have been varied from slouchy hobos, trapezoids, rounds and so much variety. And while Chanel and Brikin are still quintessential “IT” bags, there has been less focus on the lady bag. Structure, polish and top-handles are key components of a lady bag. We are familiar with Dior “Lady Dior” bags and Valentino floral bags that beg to be carried in lady-like style. With chic glamorous sheath dresses and uptown look being one of the major fashion trends, it’s no surprise that we are seeing more lady-like bags on the radar.
Reed Krakoff’s introduction last month gave us lady-like styling with masculine and more modern architectural elements. The 510 Tote in amazing rich teal is a satchel that has clean lines, smooth rich leathers and a modern proper-ness about it that inspires one to be sharply dress and head off to lunch with the most prominent of the “who’s who”. I adore this bag and for only $1150, it’s a find that’s incredibly well made and quite lovely.

If I had a nice chunk of money to spare on a designer handbag that I’ll admire more than I’ll actually wear, I’d head on over to the Nancy Gonzalez section and give into the Framed Python Satchel.
There is something about this satchel that makes me awe in disbelieve at what you could get for your moneys worth. In comparison to other high-end designer brands, for $2650, you’re likely to get something such as luscious lambskin or another kind of distressed leathers, but when it comes down to shopping for a Nancy Gonzalez accessory, you’re sure to get each and every penny’s worth.
