Rebecca Minkoff Darling Shoulder Bag
Rebecca Minkoff has a new shape for her Fall 2009 Collection. Introducing the Rebecca Minkoff Darling Shoulder Bag. It’s soft, slouchy, and it has an intriguing crescent shape. Nope, there’s nothing boxy about this “darling” new style. What I find most interesting about this bag is the tassel zipper pulls that can be found on either side. Now Rebecca Minkoff is not really known for doing tassels, so this was definitely something unexpected. But, personally, I think they are kinda cute. They give this bag a rocker-chic vibe without the employment of studs. Plus I love the idea of exterior pockets with vertical zippers. They make wonderful places to keep keys and cell phones! However, I do find the zippered belt that encircles the middle of the bag a bit more unusual. It isn’t necessarily bad, it just looks a bit out of place. I think the bag would look a tad sharper if the belt was plain leather instead and perhaps with a larger, more ornamental clasp. Overall I find the Rebecca Minkoff Darling Shoulder bag a wonderful addition to her collection. Heck, it even reminds me of Botkier a little bit and it just so happens that that is a good thing!
The Rebecca Minkoff Darling Shoulder Bag measures 14″ x 10″ x 5″ and it retails for $495. It is currently available for Pre-Order at Luna Boston!

I’m not really that impressed with this new style. I do like the tassels, but that’s about it.
Finally a new hobo by minkoff!!
Seriously, I thought this bag was by Botkier! Very surprising.
The tassels are very balenciaga & botkier! I don’t mean that in a negative way, this bag is really cute ( I may even add one to my collection :)
I like the Darling, but not enough to pay full price for it. I’ll wait a couple months until it’s @ sample sale price.
It’s okay. Not really liking the zipper down the front.
I love this new style. I wonder if it comes in other colors.
This is very cute.
First glance, I’m not really liking this style, but I may change my mind once I see it in real life.
This is so botkier..
How many times have I said this.. I love REBECCA MINKOFF PURSES!
How much? I would rather wait until a sample sale, lol.
It looks like the perfect size. Can’t wait to see this irl.
I prefer the nikki. I like the way the straps feel on that style.
