In the handbag loving world the prices have continued to go through the roof. I can justify certain amounts, but sometimes it just hits the point where a handbag price is no longer something I am willing to spends or even in my means to spend. So many of us yearn for an exotic bag, but can not afford the prices. That is why an affordable exotic bag is hard to find, but when you find it, buy it and run for the hills. I was told about a python bag whose price is unbeatable. Lux Couture is carrying a line of handbags from D’Angel, whose designers are Vibri Wulandari and Dewi Sugiarto. The bags are hand-made in Indonesia which exotic skins, including python, cobra, watersnake, and lizard skins. Right now their bag that will undoubtedly fly off the shelves is the D’Angel Tia Tote which is made with python skin on a roomy tote. There is a chic addition of a tassel detail on each tote along with a drawstring top. The shape is beautiful and great for the woman who has to carry around a lot (measures 15 x 8 x 5.5 inches). This bag is also available in natural, cranberry, and caramel. The snake skin is thin, not super thick, but the bag is durable and chic. The best part about this bag is the price. I saw the price and was sure it was a typo, but it is not. You can have a python tote for only $500!!! I know, right?! This is a price that can not be beat on a chic and trendy bag. Exotic skins are always in style (for those that love them) and this is a great piece if you are trying to watch your bank account. Inquire through Lux Couture and tell Sari Brown we sent you. She always, always, always, provides amazing customer service! With a price like this, these bags will fly off the shelf; so go get yours while you can!
UDPATE: The D’Angel Tia Tote sold out at Lux Couture today thanks to all of you! I will be in touch with Sari to see if she has more in stock, but we had to let you know that you all made history for a short and quick 100% sell out!!!! Enjoy your bags!!!
