Some Tiffany's items:
I have much praise for Tiffany's new leather goods collection and as a disclaimer, I have NO affiliation with the company or whatsoever. I'm a genuine admirer of the brand's new collection. However, I'm surprised to see some people saying that the handbags and accessories are "not worth it" or "over-priced." Honestly, I haven't seen a better designer collection out these days, but Tiffany's leather goods have blown me away. I traveled all the way to the States (Boston) this summer because Canada won't be getting the line in until later (and 3 months later, we still don't have them...) just to take a better look at them IRL and they were magnificent in quality and detail.
The collection is by the designers from Lambertson & Truex, which Tiffany bought over recently. All the designs are clean, simple, and at affordable prices. Now some people may argue with me saying they're "over-priced," and here are my reasonings for why they are not:
1. All items are lined in either gorgeous turquoise satin (evening bags/clutches) or leather (everyday handbags). Now I haven't seen many *all* leather handbags with *complete* leather lining from premiere designers that run around 1K.
Take LV for example, much of the current mono and damier pieces are essentially all canvas with some leather trim and already it starts ~700$??? And nothing really comes to my mind for all leather lined LV bags... Wait, the croc Motard? Yes, and that's only 13 500$. Basically ALL leather inside and out LV bags nowadays will run around 5000$, roughly (and even so, my Motard Biker which cost 4500$ was only lined in cotton canvas...). Don't get me wrong, I have several LV pieces, but just the fact that leather requires more processing forces me to give extra points to Tiffany.
2. EVERY hardware piece is engraved with the company's name and is polished and coated in platinum.
3. Most pieces are made in Italy. I think some others in Spain and South Africa for exotic pieces.
4. Attention to detail: smooth glazing, even stitching, pockets, zippers...etc
I hope this is convincing enough that Tiffany's new collection is at least something to look into. It's hard for a company to dive into a market saturated with logos and brands, and being the new-comer into the game, I think Tiffany has done very well in choosing classic, versatile pieces to promote the brand.
Please welcome my new fav go-to handbag of choice:
Taylor Hobo in Brown Leather

Love your collection! Especially love all the LV's and the See by Chloe flats! Where did you purchase them? I need a pair ASAP!
I'm nothing without this program lol, and for a while I didn't have it, which is why some pix are really bad (together with my camera gone at my parents' place).
