Bag Breakfast at Tiffany's

A loved one presents you with a blue box tied up with a white ribbon. You know what it is. Every girl knows what it is. The anticipation is killing you. Will it be a silver tennis bracelet, perhaps a shiny diamond ring, or maybe even that Return to Tiffany tag bracelet you have been wanting for ages? No, it’s none of the above! Even better (if you are obsessed with handbags), it’s a brand new Tiffany purse!

I am so excited about the Tiffany handbag line. The Tiffany aesthetic—beautiful, timeless and understated—has been translated seamlessly to this new line. Rather than feeling tacked on and out of place, these additions to Tiffany come across as an organic next-step for an American icon.

Of course, these beauts are expensive (prices range from $295 to $16,000). Out of the full line, my favorite is the Tiffany blue and platinum tote. It features metallic leather with Tiffany blue suede inside, and it’s reversible! I love that the logo-less design doesn’t scream Tiffany, but seduces with all the effortlessness of an Audrey Hepburn smile—what else do you need other than that blue to know exactly what you have?

There are also many delicious clutches to choose from, all so clean and elegant. Worth a look if you’re due for a Tiffany moment. Here are a few purses that caught my eye. Which one is on your Christmas list this year
