Lockheart Bag

I was recently introduced to Lockheart by many loyal fans on the Purse Forum. After we covered Lockheart, it was obvious that the love for that brand was huge. Without seeing one of their bags, I was left wondering what the design was like in person, what the leather felt like, and if this brand was as big as the others said. I can now assure you that Lockheart bags are stunning.

I adore this bag. The leather is really smooshy with a slight sheen. The color of this bag reminds me of a true red wine, not too purple, not too red, but a combination of both colors that oozes beauty. What I love the most is the detail on the top of the bag, a cut out design that adds the perfect touch, which is also seen on a middle strap and the handle. Also, the shoulder strap hangs beautifully from my arm, with ample drop. On the inside you will find tons of pockets and pouches for your sorting needs with a satin circle pattern lining. It is true; I am in love. This bag is not available for purchase yet, but I will get more details on it for you all soon! Check Lockheart online for more.

    I have two Lockheart bags, and the craftmanship is 2nd to none!That being said-they are heavy to carry around!

    Reply Jul 3, 2009 10:20PM
  9. This one is really not too heavy at all, in fact I almost thought it was light. It doesn’t remind me of Chloe leather, which can be very heavy – it seems pretty ‘regular’ in its weight for me! But when feeling the leather I can see how some might be a bit heavy

    I have three Lockheart bags – so I guess that speaks for the fact that I love this brand. When I carry my bag I feel like I’m carrying with me a work of art – because I am. The leather is delicious – the detailiing exquisite and I always get compliments. Perhaps I am stronger than I thought reading others’ comments about the weight – the weight seems just right to me and I am a small woman.

    I own about 9 Lockheart bags and I LOVE THEM. They are the only bag I carry. From my Hobos in the day to my clutches in the evening. I get compliments ALL the time. The range of colors and styles can fit in anyones personal style and age. I even have my mom wearing Lockheart bags. These designers are incredible and the smell of the leather and the texture is just amazing. I honestly put my face in every purse and smell. I am a little obsessed.

    Gorgeous gorgeous LOCKHEART bag!
    Victorian Era meets high tech Era.
    This bag is so feminine yet so sturdy.
    I have always loved Lockheart’s quality and construction, made to last forever and forever….
    I feel good energy when I carry a Lockheart bag, one cannot describe the sensatitional feeling …
    In today’s economy, I told my husband, I need to stretch my budget by buying quality, not quantity.
    He agrees; therefore, Lockheart is again, on my shopping list.

    I LOVE Lockheart and all I carry are Lockheart bags.
    I have been a fan of theirs since they started their company and the bags just keep getting better and better.
    I get stopped in elevators, on the street, everywhere.
    People have even offered to buy them off of me!
    I am such a huge fan and am glad to see that others are too!

    When and where will this bag be for sale? It’s so beautiful! I have been interested in Lockheart ever since I began paying attention to all of the TPF buzz (and of course looking at the pics!) These are definitely bags unlike anything else on the market, and this photo does them justice. Can you please provide us with any info. as to a release date/model name, Megs? Pretty please? This one’s on my list…

    I forgot to add that I have 3 Lockhearts and one of their wallets (which I highly recommend). The great thing about Lockheart is how they cleverly incorporate pockets as a part of their design. If you look closely at the photo – I would bet that those are vertical pockets on the front of the bag. Lockheart handbags have so many great hiding places for your stuff. Very beautiful design and quite functional. I too don’t find them heavy at all. I get compliments on mine all the time. Also their CS rocks!

    I am a huge fan of Lockheart handbags! From large patent satchels, to small woven clutches & zipper-jeweled styles (I have indulged in a few!) each bag creates a feeling of being hip, sexy, sophisticated & fun. The details, luxurious materials and unique shapes, styles and colors are guaranteed to garner more than a few compliments. But let’s be honest, if the bags weren’t functional it wouldn’t be as fun to carry, right? Check out the inside lining and pockets… then hear the angels sing! lol

    Every season I look forward to the new and creative handbags from Lockheart! These designers are obviously passionate about what they do because you can see it with each design and idea. Just when I think they have outdone themselves… the next season gets better. We have to be lucky that there are still bags out there that have quality and love put into them!!
