Diane von Furstenberg Harper Bag
Diane von Furstenberg is not just famous for creating beautiful dresses, including the iconic wrap style, she has an eye for amazing prints. The Tribal Harper Bag is a fine example of this translated to a handbag. And who can ignore this beautiful shade of blue on the same bag? Pattern and bold colors are hot this season and you can take your pick to suit your style in this stunning bag.
Black and white zebra print haircalf and diamond weave jacquard combine for a striking effect. An oversized black leather tassle accent the bag. Gold tone hardware strikes a bold note on the front flap. A short top handle makes for a lady-like option while a graphic gold and black linked strap finished with a short leather shoulder pad looks striking too. Yes, there are a lot of graphic elements in this bag. But Ms. Furstenberg has a knack for bringing these elements together so that they really work.
For those who need a more subdued approach yet love a pop of color to make your outfit really shine, the supple leather version in Vintage Navy is the way to go. Navy is the rage to wear with practically anything – and yes, black and navy are divine!
Both versions measure 12 1/4″ X 9″ with the haircalf version slightly wider than the leather’s 1″ depth. The interior includes an inside zip pocket and three open pockets with linen lining.
Available at the Diane von Furstenberg Saks Fifth Avenue Boutique. $895 for the Tribal and $695 for the leather!

I have a smaller version of the Harper, it’s a salmon pink suede, and it’s TDF! Favorite style ever by DVF.
The one with the zebra print was the first to catch my eye. Love it!
I have a Harper bag from last season, all black. It’s amazing! Gets me through the day lol
I love DVF! So glad she makes bags now
AAAHHHHHH
It’s my BAG! I have been wanting one forever! Oh please please bag fairy let me get one for christmas~ 
The blue one to me would last longer “in style”
TRIBAL!
I love this bag. It’s gorgeous.
I went to Bloomingdales and they had a black leather one. I would have bought it except that it was really heavy empty. I can’t imagine what it would have felt like with my thing in it.
When I win the lotto, the first stop I make is to DVF and get two of every bag she has
My love isn’t cheap, but I can be bought.

Love the blue bag. DvF bags have gotten a lot better in recent seasons. They did absolutely fantastic clutches a few seasons ago.
