Reader’s Request: Totes

Recently, I was sent a request from one of my readers – apparently I answer requests now, or at least this one. “What tote would you recommend for 2014, must be $1500 or less”. And people think I am the only one who buys overpriced totes. Trust me, I don’t make this shit up. Here are my choices:

Saint Laurent Black Pebbled Leather Minimalist Tote, $1450

Image

WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie O’Hare Tote, $750

Image

3.1 Phillip Lim 31 Hour Bag, $995

Image

Jil Sander Tote, $1614 (yes, this one is over $1500 but it’s Jil and on sale)

Sadly, this Bottega Veneta Navy Tote is out of the price range. Sell your first born, it’s worth it. $3800

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
