ONE ITEM I'M TAKING TO 2025

As we approach the end of another fashion year, I find myself eagerly anticipating the trends and styles that will dominate the scene in 2025. Among the many items on my radar, there is one that has truly captured my heart and will be making the transition into the new year with me – the Snatched Handbag Medium from Maison Margiela. This bag has reigned supreme in my collection since A19.

What drew me to the Snatched Handbag Medium in the first place was its striking resemblance to the iconic Hermès Kelly. As a proud owner of a Kelly, I've always admired its timeless elegance and structured silhouette. However, as much as I adore my Kelly, I'll admit that it can be a bit high-maintenance at times. You have to be extra careful when carrying it, constantly worrying about scratches or scuffs. That's where the Snatched Handbag Medium comes in – it offers a similar aesthetic without the added stress of babying it.

The grainy leather construction with contrasting smooth details gives the Snatched Handbag Medium a luxurious feel that is both durable and chic. Its asymmetric shape, inspired by origami, sets it apart from other bags on the market, making it a true conversation starter. While it may not be able to accommodate a laptop, its roomy interior is perfect for holding all of my daily essentials, from my wallet and keys to my makeup and a spare pair of flats.

The snatch bag features detachable and adjustable leather shoulder strap allows me to wear it in a variety of ways, while the mirrored lock closure adorned with the numeric logo just adds the umphh!
