There’s no such thing as the perfect bag — only a bag that’s perfect for the occasion.
At least, that’s how you explain the truckload of purses spilling out of your closet.
The B.B. (Beach Bag) by Meli’ Melo’ pokes a welcome hole in that theory. A large, smooth, leather tote with inverted handles, the B.B. is big enough to fit any number of elements in your kooked-out, multitasking life: PDA, yoga clothes, magazines, iPod, work folders, water bottle, even a beach towel. Its stylish, slouchy shape means it’s right at home in just about any locale, while the glitzy colors — gold, copper, and silver, as well as metallic blue, green, and pink — look sharp even as the sun goes down.
It may be the last bag you’ll ever make room for in your closet.
Though we doubt it.
