Handbags like this are why I love Miu Miu so much. The label’s Coral Stones Bag, new for 2009, is an absolute gem in a sea of boring brown totes. This one is slouchy yet structured at once and so smart and polished you’ll wonder how you managed without it for so long. I know I am, because I am absolutely smitten with this gorgeous carryall. The deep brown leather is slightly distressed, so even though it’s shiny it doesn’t look too perfect. Coral stones embellish the thick rope handle, and though I had to search a little at first to spot them, their appeal is irresistible. Available for $1550 at Net-a-Porter.
