Refinement isn’t always more expensive. Sometimes it’s a matter of design and quality control, not complexity of construction and not entirely the quality of materials – although lower quality leather is also more difficult to craft into graceful shapes. I’ll discuss this feature in the following situations: 1. Top handle totes 2. Shoulder carry totes 3. Rounded (rope) handles 4. The whole bag’s composition While many of us love Phoebe Philo’s Celine bags, there’s really no upside to bags inspired by her work while blatantly missing its grace. I’d much rather carry a $20 nylon bag from Uniqlo than a $670 bag that falls short. LTKStyleTip LTKVideo LTKItBag
