Gadino ‘Abigail’ Bag

On a recent trip to Paris I was on a mission Replica Handbags to find a new handbag that was beautiful, of great quality and functional. Visiting almost every one of the better known brands without really finding anything new, I also decided I didn’t want a bag that is seen on every other woman on the street. Luckily Paris is known for great shopping experiences and tiny shops with smaller up-and-coming designers, and I stumbled upon this ‘Abigail’ bag by Gadino.

It was love at first sight!

The first thing that appealed to me was the design; it’s beautifully made, has lots of pockets for bus tickets, cell phone, lipstick, keys, you name it. The leather is the other great asset; it is soft as the finest luxury powder, yet strong enough to hold anything. Truly amazing quality, great design and beautiful details made ‘Abigail’ and I a match made in heaven!

The Shopper is an oversized, rust-colored ostrich skin bag, and the color pops, though the tone is not so bright that it doesn’t coordinate with everything. The shape is different, with a cool V-shaped top and single rolled handle that let you carry it comfortably while still keeping your things safely inside.
