Meet: Andrea Brueckner Handbags

So this may not be news to anyone who follows the fashion world pretty closely, but it was news to ordinary ole me: Andrea Brueckner makes some wonderful handbags.  In keeping with our philosophy of comfortably stylish and beautifully unfussy, her bags are totally wearable.  High quality materials and construction.  Easy-going yet structural shapes. Dumbfoundingly simple and carefree profiles.  And just the slightest touch of sass--or, as I like to say, not too many ding-dongs hanging around (I hate bags with too many ding-dongs!).  

The only thing that sucks about them is their extraordinarily high prices.  But I'll forgive even that for the sake of good design. It's like these bags are saying, "Here we are.  Take us or leave us.  We know we're awesome."
