I'm not one to shy away from bold accessories… In fact, in the last month alone, I've purchased a zebra-print belt, embellished slides, and enough rainbow jewelry to rival any third-grader's collection. However, when it comes to investment pieces, my practical gene kicks in, and I always end up opting for classic styles and timeless colors to ensure I'll get endless use out of each purchase. The accessory I currently have my sights set on (and my shopping cart loaded with)? This new quilted black leather bag from Balmain.
