Brahmin Walnut Orinico Sophie, Handbag of the Day

by Sandy Maple (RSS feed) Sep 20th 2007 at 5:03PM

I was out shopping yesterday and ran across this bag. Although Bill and Joan Martin have been creating bags under the Brahmin name since 1982, I was unfamiliar with their work. From the Walnut Orinico collection, the Sophie bag is sturdy and well-shaped. I appreciate the unusual color and the inclusion of lots of pockets - four total. A gold-tone magnetic flap closure and a small logo tag are the only accents this bag needs. $375.

This bag is so under priced it's a steal. This is fashion meeting focus.
Take is anywhere and own it !

PLEASE handbag lovers like me. Don't you know that Brahmin handbags are made in CHINA? And they are so stiff that it is impossible to judge if they are made of leather or what. Check the label inside the bags and you will see where your bag was made. $375.00 is indeed robbery! I've seen better looking and SOFTER embossed handbags, not from China. Brahmin shame on you.
