I'd thought I was finished with handbag purchases for the year (and feeling pleased with myself for meeting my goal of downsizing to only 10 in the collection), but this came lovely Burgundy XL PS1 was too good to pass up.
I'd been contemplating the XL size as a work bag for nearly a year, but since I am usually traveling (tote my laptops around in a sturdy TUMI carry-on) or working from my home office, it seemed unnecessary. But now that I am halfway through a 2-month office assignment for work, I have carried my Black LKA every day and I want to mix things up.
The XL is a large bag, but it's not excessively large. I'm about 5'2" in stocking feet, and it would be too big for me to carry as a handbag. I would say it's comparable in size to a Balenciaga Weekender (but so much more convenient with two shoulder straps!). For some reason, though, it looks deceptively smaller when carried.
Burgundy is a very deep, wine-like color. It's a great neutral, and with the exception of a fire engine red winter coat, I think this will look good with anything in my closet. And if it darkens up like PS bags are known to do, I will like it even more.
So, here is the new addition:
Here is the strap integration -
