Sophie Sacs is what my hand-bag dreams are made of. I really really love bags, I don't think you can EVER have enough bags. And Sophies fulfills my love of bargains and high quality leather.
I found myself in Montparnasse one day, with Sophie Sacs a quick 5 minute walk from my hotel. Before my trip, I had googled "Shit to do in Montparnasse" like a dumbass tourist, because let's be real, I know shit about the ACTUAL COOL STUFF there is to do in Paris, Once you've seen the Eiffel tower and Arc de Triomph about 4 billion times, you don't really need to see it again? (Kidding, I love you Paris). Sophie Sacs came up on a google list search as being a store YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO VISIT IF YOU LOVE SHOPPING AND BARGAINS. I was sold and visited Sophie's about 4 different times during my trip because I honestly had such a hard time choosing from all the gorgeous wares at this store. I wanted at least 5 things from here and knew I was on a budget and could only pick ONE thing.
Even though the store is small, it is packed to the gills & Sophie's has a bag for every taste - everything from leather totes, to manly leather weekender bags, to itty bitty over the shoulder satchels.
I ended up picking an over-sized black leather tote. it's made of two different type of leather - smooth leather bottom, with a suede leather on top. The straps have helfty silver hardware, and silver prongs on the bottom of the bag.
And let me just say, this bag is DURABLE AS ALL HELL. I really abuse my bags, they get thrown around and put on dirty floors, and they get over stuffed and scuffed. And still, this bags still looks stunning and I am just truly obsessed and in love with my bag from Sophies Sacs.
In conclusion, in the wise words of Tina Fey:
