Billie Leather Shoulder Bag by Chloé

Posted on | Leave a comment

Billiebag

Satchels are undeniably mainstream bag designers' latest love affair, leaning heavily on vintage inspiration in most cases. Pieces like this Billie Shoulder Bag by Chloé offer a chic reinterpretation of 20th century ideas, without losing that key retro appeal.

Made from panels of tan leather and heritage-look linen fabric, the sharp structure of this bag is accented by black trim. The resulting lines and shape are reminiscent of a classic sixties satchel, while the unconventional use of fabrics adds an interesting new dimension.

It's available now in the UK for £875 from Net-a-Porter.

Sadly, not a working vintage typewriter, but still a talking point – the Kate Spade 'All Typed Up Clyde' crossbody satchel.

It's a very eye-catching retro-styled bag, made of light textured leather, with patent leather handles, an optional strap and of course, featuring those keys, which you want to reach out and press, even on the picture.

Finished off with an exterior zip-around pocket, several interior pockets and a custom jacquard lining, it sells at Nordstrom for $495, or if you are in the UK, £326.47. No, quirky doesn't come cheap in this case.

Soft leather luggage never goes out of style, be it a piece of true vintage or a retro option with pared back styling. This PS1 Satchel by top end design house Proenza Schouler has all the hallmarks of timeless design, with no detail veering from a heritage inspiration.

The dark tan shade of leather lends well to the natural fabric's ageing process, meaning the soft leather choice will wear well throughout its lifetime. With burnished gold-look hardware at the strap joints and buckle, the finishings are done to a tee.

Get it from Net-a-Porter for £1255.
