Givenchy Leather Shopping Tote, Handbag of the Day

Departing from the far more common style of having separate handles that are attached with rings, buckles to stitching, Givenchy's Leather Shopping Tote has shoulder straps that are merely an extension of the calf leather from the rest of the bag. This makes it clear that you are getting the best quality leather throughout the bag, as some manufacturers take advantage of the opportunity offered by detached handles to make use of smaller scrap leather or pieces that were too flawed to find their way onto the main bag. The large tote is accented with side buckles and a logo luggage tag. Price: $1,395.
