The Material Boy #472

Below: Remember this 3.1 Phillip Lim Leather Tote I blogged about a while ago? Apparently, this larger 'KC Leather Satchel' lookalike in the pic below is from the Fall Winter 2011 collection. No wonder I cannot find any information about the bag a couple of months back. I found out the name, thanks to a reader. The bag is called Pashli Satchel (Modelling pic from Garance Doré)

Below: The gorgeous Pashli Satchel comes in gorgeous Jade, Ink, Taupe and black colours. I absolutely love the zipper sides and chain details. A must have for next season:-P

3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel

Remember this '3.1 Phillip Lim KC Leather Satchel' lookalike I was coveting about a couple of months ago... but found that the SS2011 version was way too petite for guy's use? Garance Doré took a pic of a fashion editor carrying a larger forest green variant with chain details. But no one seem to know where that version came from. Well... the 'bag gods' (namely Style.com) have unveiled the mystery. Yes, they are definitely from 3.1 Phillip Lim... but they are from Fall Winter 2011 season instead of Spring Summer 2011. No wonder no one at the stores can enlighten me with more details, and neither thru researching online. But thanks to a reader, I got more information. The name of the bag is Pashli Satchel, which runs a range from totes to shoulder camera bags. The Pashli Satchel retails for USD895 (approx. SGD1185).


I am loving every aspect of the Pashli Satchel. From the textured leather, to the deep Fall Winter tones of Jade, Taupe, Black and Ink, to the interesting gold tone side zippers with metal chain pulls, I cannot fault the design. Some people may feel the bag resembles a cross between the ever popular 'schoolboy' bags (the likes of Alexa and PS1) and Céline... I strongly feel the bag stands out with its own personality.

I can't wait for this gorgeous bag to debut in stores. They are hot on my buying list, especially the green version. I just hope the size will be large enough for guys:-P 3.1 Phillip Lim has many bags that is sure to win you over for Fall Winter 2011. So keep a lookout for this fast rising Amercian brand:-) Available for pre-order at Nordstrom. If not, wait for the bag to hit Singapore's 3.1 Phillip Lim store.
