Balenciaga needs no introduction, and it’s bags like this one that make the fashion house as relevant today as ever. The Whistle East-West Bag exemplifies what Balenciaga does best: supple red lambskin, a little of that signature slouchy shape and a playful whistle charm flourish together, resulting in a purse destined to be a classic in no time. No tassels on this one, and frankly that’s a welcome change from the brand’s more popular designs. This is just the thing to dress up that well-worn pair of jeans you insist on keeping (hey, we all have ‘em). Available for $1436 at bluefly.com.
