Michael Kors 'Zuma - Small' Satchel

Whenever I hear a Beyonce song for the first time, immediately I can't stand it, but after hearing it over and over and over again, I eventually fall in love with it, add it to my iPod and can unfortunately recite every lyric. Sometimes it's that way with bags too - I may not appreciate it or 'get it' at first glance but eventually, I'm sold. That's exactly what happened with this Michael Kors 'Zuma - Small' Satchel ($1,295). I saw it several times on NORDSTROM.com and I just kept passing it by but after seeing it multiple times, I finally decided that I love it. The lipstick red leather looks so rich and supple so that initially grabbed my attention, but the knots threw me off. But it's actually a really unique design. Two rows of vertical leather-wrapped grommets go down the front, intertwined with red leather knots that form the shoulder straps. There are grommets and knots down the sides too. The top features an uncommon two-zip closure and there are protective metal feet on the bottom of the bag so you don't scratch up that soft leather. Measures 14"W x 10"H x 5 1/2"D with a 10" strap drop.
