Chloe Aurore
Does this duffle shaped handbag look familiar to you? If not, it’ll be the distinguishable padlock that’ll give this bags designer name away. In case you’re still stumped, this is a fresh top handle design by the House of Chloé. The Chloé Paddington is one of those past “It” bag that we can’t really see making a comeback anytime soon, but the Aurore Top Handle leather bag looks like a classier improvement to the Paddington that can withstand the time of fashion.
For one, we have a far more comfortable piece here. With a simple alteration of the oversized metal padlock to the more fun-sized version that’s found on this satchel, Chloé not only conserves its consumers from back problems or injuries to the crook of the arm, but also allows this investment to be a reasonable fit for everyday wear. Smooth leather with a few amounts of metal accents keeps this look minimal yet eye-catching.
This structured satchel bears a top zipper design that runs all the way down from both ends, permitting a wide opening to its cotton interior lining. It reminds me a bit of Louis Vuitton’s iconic Speedy bag, perhaps this is Chloé version of what a classic satchel should look like.
Available in gorgeous Auburn or perfect Black, the Aurore carries a hefty price tag of $1,795.

Thanks for identifying her purse! I’ve been obsessing over it for a while now.. had no idea it was by Chloe.
This bag is such a YAY in my book!!!
I love this bag in the black!
I love her style! that bag is gorgeous!
I like the back of the bag a whole lot more than the front. I’ve never been a fan of the heavy signature chloe padlock. Love the design though.
I ordered the black!!!!!!!!

Looks like a Speedy…

I just bought this in black and I love it!
The color is not a rich velvety black like the picture though, it is more like a matte black, and the gold hardware is more of a brushed brass color. The leather is also stiffer and more structures than the photo.
Still, it’s a very pretty bag and everyone liked it when I got it. I like how it zips the whole way open as it makes it easy to access!
I read some reviews saying that it is too big and deep for someone petite, but I think it looks fine on me. It is about the size of a Speedy 30 so not that big.
Love it and great investment for me :)
