The perfect handbag is as important ingredient for an outfit as the perfect shoe – wear something that’s gaudy and clashing, and the whole ensemble becomes laughable. Designer bags, like snowflakes or people, come in various shapes and sizes, and combing through a selection is the best way to decide which one works best for you. A Brahmin handbag is not merely an accessory, but a personal statement of class, distinction and elegance. A Brahmin handbag is the sort of thing a young starlet or a stunning supermodel would be seen wearing marching down a red carpet, but an intelligent CEO or a brainy executive will also be armed with a Brahmin handbag whether she’s shopping, dining or meeting with girlfriends for lunch. From the line of bags available, a special little number worth mentioning is Beatrice.

Beatrice from the Classic Tuscan: Classic Tuscan, Classic Brahmin

The Classic Tuscan collection features a lovely variety of choice, none more so than Beatrice – a gorgeous black handbag with brown accents and gold clasp. The Beatrice sells for $345, and is available on the Brahmin Website. What makes Beatrice a standout Brahmin handbag is the functionality – like the Hermes Birkin bag, the Beatrice is stunning in its elegance; however, it’s small enough to remain practical.

The Beatrice is made of elegant, glossy black leather. The accents are structured, scaled brown leather, pebbled with drops of dark brown, adding texture and layering to the leather. The Beatrice also has a brown leather strap for easy carrying, and can be detached. Other excellent features include a fold-over flap closure, bottom feet for standing, a pen loop, key clip, two organizer pockets, as well as, interior pockets. There is also the Brahmin logo hanging from a braided strand of leather on the strap.

Where Should I Wear my Brahmin Handbag?

The beauty of Beatrice is that she can go anywhere. The simplicity and lack of gaudiness makes Beatrice versatile and appropriate in a large number of social occasions. The pen loop, organizer pockets, and its dimensions also make it a great little accessory in a business setting, as much as a social outing. The Beatrice is the kind of bag that urban dwellers pounding the pavement on Fifth Avenue, Rodeo Drive, Sunset Boulevard or Michigan Avenue will be happy to be seen with – swinging saucily, and matched with a smart Wing Lamb jacket from Cole Haan.
