Default Hugo Boss Havana Canvas Messenger


As you may, or may not have noticed, the PurseBlog got a makeover and is now flying its brand-spanking-new summer outfit. Version 3.0 was getting boring to look at, and I've finally motivated myself to get the work done to recreate, renovate and redo the ol' hag. Let me know if you like it! Do I get a cookie now?

Ok, I'll pass on the cookie. Aside from the redesign, I've come to the conclusion that my bag arsenal totally sucks, especially for a guy who sits at the helm of interweb's biggest site dedicated to... bags. A shame really. Before you suggest for me to indulge myself with some lady bags, I need to preemtively announce and I don't fly lady bags. While other guys may respectfull disagree with me, I just don't see myself ever wearing a Speedy, for example (although Megs claims that her recent aquisition does look good on me... yikes). On the search of a genuinely good looking man bag, I stumbled across the Hugo Boss Havana Canvas Messenger Bag, which, surprisingly, only goes for 275 dollar Americano. Not bad for a bag from Boss, I would have expected it to go for at least twice as much. The bag offers a sleek, sophisticated everyday style that I really see myself sporting every day. The flap over the front covers two large pouch pockets with magnetic snap closures while the flat pocket on the back is perfect for magazines or papers. Now I just have to figure out if the messenger fits my 17 inch Macbook Pro and I am ready to kick the Samsonite backpack in the dust. [via eLuxury]

That is one cool messenger bag Vlad! It might be a tight fit for your laptop though as it is 15" x 11" x 5" (at base). And I totally agree with you about leaving the lady bags to the ladies!!!

The messenger bag certainly looks very functional!

Thank you for redesigning the site, Vlad - it looks great!

You deserve, not just one, but several cookies! Here you go:
