Tod’s Softy Bag

Tods Softy Bag
Most of my obsession with Tod’s comes from their shoes. While their bags are lovely, it is their perfect fitting comfortable shoes that do me in. I wish I could say I have a closet full of Tod’s shoes, but I do not. Vlad owns two pair that he bought while we were […]

Space Cadet

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008

I’m strangely drawn to this shimmery messenger that looks like something Judy Jetson might have carried to school.

The elongated zipper at the front, almost makes the messenger bag look like a smiling alien. It can be carried from the breifcase like handle at top, or slung across the body by it’s longer strap. The longer strap appears to be reflective which only adds to the bag’s spacey appearance.
Inside, there are pockets for a cell phone, a key fob, and a pocket to spare.
The silver leather Olivia Messanger also comes in black patent, and metalic brown, neither of which are as much fun as the shimmery silver. The bag is made by Aanetta, and can be ordered from Aaneta directly for $400.
