Sang A River Tote in Woven Eel

This fun coin purse or what I call a clutch pouch is what everyone needs when using their favorite clutch. I talked about the floating cards and bills in clutches yesterday and this is the perfect solution for that. I used to use a card holder for my cards, but what about the money? You put it in the zip pocket (if there is one) but it still has a good chance of falling out. And is not the most organized. This pouch does not have card slots, it is like an envelope but it is big enough for all your cards and a pretty good size wad of cash (plus it holds coins which causes problems in a clutch). It makes using your clutch a totally streamlined operation. These come plain without the YSL Paris flagship address but I just find it so kitchy and cute because it is shaped like an envelope. It is $195 and comes in anthracite (which I got), black and metallic gold. There is a larger size but it will be too big for traditional size clutches (those are $245). This is only available this season and they are selling out fast so if you want one call Fatima at YSL Rodeo Dr.

Sang A has become the industry’s little known secret for super cool bags. Olivia Chantecaille was seen with one of her clutches at the big Prada party in NY during fashion week. Now everyone is clamoring to get theirs! Their Spring collection has finally arrived and we are excited to get ours, too! We love the River Tote, it is one of the most practical, well used and loved bags in our collection. So much so that both Tina and I just got another one, in this amazingly cool and interesting woven eel. It looks like flower pedals and I know what you’re all thinking, eel is ewwww, right? Well, no because when it is woven, the slight sheen it has gives it dimension as well as the amazing texture woven skins have. The simple, chic and modern River Tote shape is the perfect vehicle for this intricate and exotic skin, it shows off beautifully especially with the pared down hardware (unlike other Rivers, it does not have the square hardware piece where the straps attach). I of course love the long strap, it is comfortable and is flattering as it elongates the figure. It is $2156, to order email Sang A or call 212-564-4433 to place an order. Sang A bags are also available
