The Gift Everyone is Talking About by ElegantDuchess.com

“My biggest fear is that when I die, my husband will sell all my bags for what I told him they cost.” Unknown

Admittedly, the handbag was forced into a sabbatical for much of 2020, but now we’re back to lugging around our most impractical, unnecessarily over-stuffed bags to and from work, dinners and everything in between.

Handbags have a magical power to transform any look from basic to boujee. Their sartorial power is undeniable, transforming an outfit from day to night, city to beach, classy to sassy with ease.

Teddy Blake is the brand that I have been admiring for years. This brand screams quality with its Italian leather, elegant shine, durability and the expert craftsmanship – a Teddy Blake bag is a lifetime choice.

If you have not heard of Teddy Blake here is a little backstory. The New York based luxury handbag company creates with the mission that luxury can be affordable. With their in-house brand using the same Italian pelleteries to handpick their leather and the same factories as the high end brands there is no compromise on the quality of your leather bag and there is no charge on the label.

Kim Stampatto 14″ Dark Green

My gorgeous 14” green Kim  is made from soft pebbled leather with gold toned hardware and comes in a range of hues and sizes. The bag is big enough to fit all my essentials, a perfect sized bag in my opinion and I just adore it! You can see the craftsmanship in the attention to detail, the high quality construction, the imaginative design, shape and durability.

The versatile design of the bag channels both classic and modern lines and its sharp and structured shape was crafted in Italy. It also come with an detachable/adjustable shoulder strap so you can wear it cross body too.

Kim is currently my favourite dusk to dawn accessory! I wear it with anything, jeans, dresses, work suits and it never misses its mark.

Christmas is just around the corner and now is the perfect time to invest and update your bag repertoire.
