Alexander Mcqueen Check Wool Travel Holdall

Winter season means restrained elegance. Long gone will be those bright, flamboyant colours and wild prints. In place will be smart checks, deep sombre hues and rich textures of leather, tweed and wool. I think my taste has somewhat changed as the new fall season starts to takes its place. Although Singapore is a non seasonal country, somehow what is sold in the shops will affect what you like.

So here is one lovely bag to lust over for this coming fall season. A beautiful check wool and leather holdall that embodies what winter weather is all about. Elegant, sombre, nice mix of heavy check wool fabric and rich tan leather. Accented with decadent gold buckles against greys, browns and in a classic shape, all contributing to make this bag a wonderful winter travel companion. Comes with a shoulder strap for ease of carrying as well. This bag will go well with those thick winter coats and wool pants that keeps you snugly warm.
