10th Commandment: May 17

May 17, 2013

Perforated leather is a hot trend for handbags, accessories and shoes.  I’ve been looking for a perforated leather tote to carry this summer, and I’ve found some good options.  How much I might spend on one, however, remains undecided.

Mango Perforated Tote Bag ($69)

In the under-$150 category, I also found this black satchel with a really cool dome/pyramid shape and this $25 taupe satchel.  Prefer a bit of color?  This Orla Kiely satchel is pretty and fun.  And if you’d rather just have a little clutch, this pleated clutch is a great choice.

    Madewell has some spectacular perforated leather shoes. I have the open toe sandals and am strongly considering the skimmers as well.

    Belle, I would also suggest Neiman Last call has a great perforated tote for $75 in a few great colors including a neutral, black, green, and a great orange color.
