DVF Bonnie Foldover Tote in Gold Metallic

It's hard to find a stylish tote for $700 without resorting to the usual suspects (just look around and you'll know what I mean).  And yes, Diane von Furstenberg is known more for her wrap dresses than bags but you have to see the latest bag collection (sick!).  Top of my list is the Bonnie Foldover Tote in distressed metallic gold: an attention grabbing bag that will pull your outfit together in an instant.  The crackled leather is soft but will withstand more beating (it will look better with use actually!), the exterior pocket is within reach without sticking out like a sore thumb and it has lightweight yet sturdy flat shoulder straps (suspended on easy to open bar closures) that will stay on your shoulders even over heavy coats.  And the shape, it folds over and has another handle on the bottom to use as an oversized clutch!  I'm crazy about this bag!  I was with a friend at the DVF boutique on 14th and Washington last week and she snapped up the last one before I could whip out my wallet.  But a snob always gets what she wants, I'm ordering mine online, tax free.  Take that!
