It doesn’t happen that often, but sometimes I come across a bag while working on something and just can’t get it out of my head. That’s the case with the Kara Horizon duffle bag Amelia Belt Bag, and it struck me as a particularly great option. You guys thought it was too; Shopbop sold out of the design the day after we included it in the post.
ASOS Calf Hair Leather Tote $475 Great super bag, and weren’t able to get your hands on one from Shopbop, we have some good news: Net-a-Porter just received the bag this week in both black and beige, as well as a shearling-accented version that Callaway 2022 Fairway C Double Strap Stand Golf Bag. The design is simple; it’s a long-strapped, roomy shoulder bag with a minimalist “tie” (it’s actually a leather strip that slides through a fastened loop for ease of closure) to keep it closed.
For me, the design has a similarly clean visual appeal to Mansur Gavriel’s much-sought-after bucket bags, but with a little more slouch and without the interminable wait lists. It’s the kind of bag I could see myself carrying every day.

Very pretty. So simple and that is great. 🙂
Simple and an ok buy for the price but it is quite boring.
Couldnt agree more. But I am still concerned about the quality of the leather. For Mansur Gavriel’s lady bag, which shares the similar design, it’s very structured.
So beautiful and sans clutter. Would love to see a purseonal from you on how it feels and works in real life.
Everyone needs a simple bag that can be paired with any outfit. Black and Beige are two colors that work for any season, and the shearling-accented version is a perfect option for winter. The leather strip allows you to feel comfortable knowing your items are safe and secure within your bag. Very unique way of keeping a bag closed shut. Love that you can wear this as a cross-body or over one shoulder. Check out my blog to see some similar looks at http://telavivcouture.blogspot.com/

Love a simple black leather bag….especially sans hardware which tends to keep it more timeless.
Very Yellow, clean design but what is the leather like?
I just bought one and am considering returning it. I love the design but the leather feels cheap and plasticky. Disappointing as its beautiful in pictures.
