Brahmin Walnut Orinico Sophie, Handbag of the Day

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.
