Michelle Vale Handbags

You are incredibly indecisive. Which explains why you wear a uniform of jeans and a blouse every day and eat at the same restaurant (and order the same darn thing) five nights a week.

But deciding on a handbag is easy, thanks to Michelle Vale’s new line of leather carryalls with interchangeable hardware.

Each one comes with both gold and silver handles that can be swapped in and out depending on the day’s look (not that it’s hard to predict). Plus, each one can be carried in multiple ways; thus, there’s no settling on just one style.

Take the Arabesque clutch, which can be held in the hand or tossed over the shoulder with the accompanying gold or silver chain link strap; the Croise clutch, whose sleek, modern straps can be switched with those of the Arabesque; or the Travesti, a ladylike number with top handles as well as shoulder and backpack straps, giving you total flexibility.

All you have to do is pick one. (Or two.)
