Akris

I am very interested in the horsehair purses, just wondering where I can see one in real life. There are no Akris stores near me and I don’t see any department stores carrying their horsehair bags:sad:
 
I was happy to see this, as I have two Anouk chain clutches (also picked up at steals), and adore them. They are so well-made and sophisticated.

Here is my silver patent one - https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...carrying-today.917840/page-1205#post-32446684

And my red one - https://forum.purseblog.com/threads...-carrying-today.917840/page-830#post-31788931

I love your black one. I would totally snap one up if I came across it at the right price. This might be the only bag that I would have in three different colors.

I decided to bump this old thread to do a mini review on my Akris Anouk City Bag.

I picked this up on a super clearance and it is a couple of seasons old (based on the price tag).

Here are some pics:

There is also a full size slip pocket on the back.

This bag is 90% leather lined, save the rear zip up pocket which is lined in a sturdy fabric. The rear pocket is also leather lined.

I took it for a spin this weekend.

It was a little smaller than I expected so I needed to downgrade to a small wallet. I love the pockets that are there but do not compromise interior room. The stitching is perfect. The leather is structured but doesn’t appear to scratch easily. And most core to me is the fact the chain strap is a great cross body length. I also love the discreet top handle.

The chain strap is also removable.

This is a very premium feeling bag and also very understated. Exactly what I was looking for.

I can’t believe I had been ignoring these bags.

I am now thinking I need a clutch or WOC. Those are lovely. I’m gonna kerp my eye out.
