When I’m feeling down - as I have from time to time, lately - it’s nice to think about a great basic handbag that’s perfect to fall back on.

I was eyeing this Liz Claiborne Leather pocket style bag for months, until I saw its perfect incarnation: The croc-embossed satchel. Back in January, I already knew croc was coming back for Spring and I’d suggest buying the metallic, for an extra dash of trendiness, without overboarding on style. The duo-tone is not only shiny, but a great mix of brown and black. So versatile to match anything, it even has antique metal hardware that is a mix between silver and golden.

The practical bag with extra oomph, it even has two outside pockets and spacious inner compartments, with pockets galore!!

Plus, it’s not expensive, especially for how soft and luxe this genuine leather is. I love feeling it against my bare arm, it will be bliss come warm weather. Don’t wait too long, as it’s almost sold out of most stores, but there are always sales popping up. Right now, it’s going for $108 at eBags.com. Destined to last, it’s worth it.
