Makowsky…"},"content":{"rendered":"

I’m a member of The Bag Forum and from time to time I’ve seen a thread or two raving about B. Makowsky’s<\/a> handbags. I don’t know why I didn’t give this brand a second thought. I found a You Tuber’s video on her “8 Most Worn Things.” Towards the end of the video, she mentions her love of her new BM brown leather silver studded satchel (Studded Soft \u2013 Large\u2019 Pleated Hobo). This re-inspired me to examine this brand… Introducing the Melbourne Shopper (my “go to” and soulmate bag). I never would have thought I could say this about any bag. You know how sometimes you can spontaneously identify a special product; one that you could picture still loving years down the line… Well, this is the real deal =). It couldn’t have been more perfect a design for me; kinda like someone custom made this bag for me! How cool is that? Why I love the Melbourne… uhm, is it because it’s a composite of all my top-rated bags and because I can’t find any fault with it?..<\/p>\n

dark, soft, exotic embossed leather
\nsignificant hardware yet the bag alone doesn’t weigh a ton
\ngenerous pockets\/compartments
\nouter compartment for a cell phone (easy access for me)
\nroomy
\nstrong magnetic closures
\ntimeless, classic style with lovely detailing
\ngood price for its quality
\nit is a true shoulder bag which can be worn with a coat on (perfect shoulder drop)
\nsoft smooth leopard print lining
\nlooks really good with any outfit
\nit may not be a summer-ish bag because it’s black, but I really don’t care (available in other pretty colors)<\/p>\n

I hope I won’t wear this bag out too quickly =). It’s the best-of-its-kind. <\/p>\n
