This plush, chocolate-colored Kate Spade bag was inspired by the city on Lake Genevain Switzerland that shares its name, Lausanne. The Lausanne Plie bag tries to capture the "chic sensibility" and "rich culture" of the quiet town by combining rich beaver fur with luxurious snakeskin leather. The bag has a drawstring closure and is topped with a thick braided leather handle with gold accents. It measures 11.8"h x 16.5"w x 6.3"d and, like all of Kate's bags, this one also has her signature larabee dot lining. Price: $995.
