Most of us hate leather handbags during hot summer afternoons. As a substitute, youngsters fall for canvas or jute, but elegant and chic fashionistas have a crush on Raffia, isn’t it? I was just surfing Balenciaga’s Spring/Summer collection and my search ended on the Large Basket Classic Bag. Classic outlook, glamorous appeal and interesting woven pattern of raffia won my heart. The handbag features aged gold, calfskin hand stitched leather handles and attractive front zipped pocket. It also has a leather framed hand mirror that will make your final touch-ups more easy. With the sophisticated and gorgeous appeal the Italian treat is tagged at £665. For such a pretty, lightweight and roomy handbag, I am sure you will not mind paying the amount. So, if you are ready to beat the cruel heat with stylish Raffia. Go snag the handbag.
