Anya Hindmarch Jackson Bag

Anya Hindmarch Jackson Bag is priced at $1,150.00 and available at Saks. The ivory calf leather looks inviting and elegant. You can also get the off-white version at Net-a-Porter UK, and the tan version from Anya Hindmarch website. This is another bag that I didn't think was as big as it actually is. Its dimensions span at 15¼"W X 10"H X 1½"D, which means, I can actually fit one textbook in there. It's almost an oversized clutch with chains. Speaking of which, Anya Hindmarch does have a clutch version of this in black, ivory, and off-white. The clutch is called Apple ($850) and it has two zippers instead of one at the back. But of course I like the Jackson more because the chain straps makes it easier to carry and in turn, more functional.

I do like that the hardware is very minimal on this bag, which contributes to its simplicity and elegance. The bag feels unmistakably English, and it is my favorite bag from Anya Hindmarch right now (with the exception of the python Vigos and Pianos, which has to be judged in a different category because they are exotic skins).
