Prada East West Tote

I have always had mixed feelings about Prada bags. Some are just very tacky, in my opinion, and others are quite simplistic. This one above is simple and elegant. I like leather simple totes that are easy to open and easy on the eyes. The pictured bag is the Prada East West Tote in black. It’s very simple, just black, no buckles or buttons; a soft leather bag with the typical Prada hardware in gold. It has two exterior pockets; one zipper pocket and one open pocket in the interior. Easy access to put things in and to take things out. It measures 10” by 15” by 7.5” and has a 7” handle drop. The only thing that I don’t like about this bag is that it has a magnetic button snap. I prefer bags to have a zipper closure for security reasons. Other than that, I think it’s a lovely bag: simple, elegant and practical. If you think so too, you can get this at Barney New York site for $1,595.
