The Countess of Glamour, Lynn Dell, always says that “a woman with a hat is the most noticed woman in the room.”  After seeing our dear friend Lucille on Ari Seth Cohen’s Advanced Style blog, we think it’s safe to say that motto holds true whether you’re in a room or on the street!

The ‘H’ Hamptons Bag – A Fabulous Fall Essential

Monday, October 18th, 2010

Hi, ladies.  Have you been searching for that one piece that will add that splash to your style?  Well, you’ve come to the right place, for we at Off Broadway Boutique have brought the famous “H” Hamptons bag collection back to our shop in time for the new season.  Back by popular demand, they boast a stunning design that works perfectly for the chic femme who is always on the go.  Designed by Olivier Goureau, these luxurious Vera Pelle bags are made with 100% leather whose stamped crocodile-esque texture provides them with that posh flair that makes them a true Fall must-have.

With a leather tassel dangling from its stiff handles, it showcases a gold ‘H’ motif in front to highlight its mock-croc look.  A magnetic snap strap in the back ensures an easy and discreet closure.  What’s more; an extra strap inside keeps the “H” Hamptons bag shut so items are secure while keeping its signature structured shape – extremely important for the career woman who needs that one bag that will be just as polished as she is.

Though it boasts that hardware look that is in vogue this season, the best things about this bag are the treasures that lay inside.  A discreet zippered pocket is hidden inside its supple leather interior so that your items will remain unscathed.  Even better, it includes an attached rectangle coin purse that you can store your change and small items in.  With that much going for it, the “H” Hamptons bag is the It bag that you’ll be sure to cherish.

Available in both a ravishing regular size and a luxe large version, the “H” Hamptons bag’s width can be adjusted with the straps on each side.  While we have been carrying them in opulent orange, gorgeous gray, wonderful ruby and bold black for a few years, we decided to add a glamorously green style that is destined to be the color of the season.    What’s more; we anticipate the arrival of a chic chocolate rendition soon so that the Vara Pelle Autumn color palette will be complete!
