It’s in the Bag
With fall rapidly approaching, a roomier bag is a must-have. Chloe’s Edith handbag has always been a best seller, and it’s now been revamped and re-released as the Chloe Large Edith Satchel. This spacious sack is made of butter-soft chamois leather, and still has the trademark Chloe side-buckle details, leather tassel pull tab, and front buckled strap, but also added silver metal embellishments and top handles. Its slouchy, roomy shape makes this the new “it” bag. $1,430
