Malo Suede Star Bag, Handbag of the Day

The selling point for the Suede ‘Star’ Bag by Malo is its unique shape - and it’s a good one. The tote bag is made of brown suede with leather trim. It has a firm, square bottom, from which soft sides extend upwards. The bag comes together at the top opening, which has no specific closure, in the shape of a four-pointed star. It has two shoulder straps with a generous drop, but the tote just looks like it should be carried casually, dangling from one hand while you stroll around a busy shopping district. It has two interior pockets so your mobile phone and car keys don’t get lost at the bottom of the 12″ x 12″ x 12″ tote. Price: $1,525.
