Burberry Check Net Drawstring Bag

We arrived in New York yesterday and were greeted with a cold, wet New York day. Really, I did not bring an umbrella as I assumed The Big Apple would be thrilled we are here and would cease all stormy weather. Today again, more rain. After a great day yesterday (lots of pictures and an interview to follow), today is another day we are looking forward to. I made Vlad go to Duane Reade to grab us some umbrellas, just cheap black ones that keep the rain off. When I look outside our window I see mostly black specs of umbrellas briskly walking the streets of New York, intermittent with some Burberry Check pattern ones. We have not covered Burberry handbags in a while, so I find it fitting to cover one today. I spotted the Burberry Check Net Drawstring Bag which redesigns the classic check into a net drawstring bag. This is a great resort bag, especially with the drawstring top giving it such a beach vibe. The nova net is trimmed with leather and the top handles are also leather (which drop 11.5" at their longest). One thing I am not keen on is the lack of pockets, but the dimensions are still great for a beach tote, 15"W X 17"H X 6"D. Are you a fan or is this bag a waste? Buy through Saks for $995.

I would definitely use for the beach. but not as an everyday bag.

I'm always, always, always a Burberry fan, but I don't like this color combination at all. I do like the overall shape of the bag and would love it in the traditional Nova check.

me got dizzy looking at that bag

saw it up close in Holts and am not a big fan, but you're right it would be a good beach tote.... but seriously, $1000 for something that will just get filled with sand?!

BUT at least its better than the new butchered novacheck.

Totally agree. Big fan of Burberry, not sure about this one.

I like it. Too pricey for the beach.
