Man Bag Must-Have: The Texier Gladiator Bag

test test - Thursday, July 19, 2012

The Gladiator bag from popular French accessories brand, Texier, offers the investment buyer a no-contest option for any situation.

If you are a regular visitor to the Just4Leather blog you will know how much we love multi-functional fashion. For us at Just4Leather, versatility is key, especially in these recessional times. Now, the Gladiator bag from Texier doesn’t exactly come in at a wallet-friendly figure, (£312.50) but for the man looking to make that one serious sartorial purchase, the Gladiator bag will make sure you get true bang for your buck.

The Gladiator bag really is the gladiator of man bags. Featuring many of the coveted French label’s hallmarks, the Gladiator bag integrates a magnetic flap opening, 2 large pockets under the flap, a large top zipped section, various internal small zipped pockets and an detachable adjustable fabric and leather shoulder strap.

With its versatile design, the Gladiator bag truly is the must-have choice for those wanting to make the exciting first step into designer bags – and what better first love than a Texier.

What’s your laptop bag style?

hannah kitchener - Friday, July 13, 2012

A laptop bag is not just a functional item, you know. It is also a fashion accessory that can enhance or detract from your overall outfit. What’s more, our fashion choices can say a lot about our personalities, so what does your laptop bag say about you? Only good things, I hope.

Chiarugi Brown Italian Leather Briefcase Laptop Bag £345

If your laptop looks like a classic briefcase like this Chiarugi leather laptop case above, you’re probably a professional with a conservative and classy dress sense. You are probably extremely tidy and well-organised and apart from your laptop your bag contains a notebook, your diary, a neatly-sliced sandwich and healthy apple. Carrying a top-handle only bag every day you are also highly skilled at opening doors, carrying a coffee and reading the newspaper one-handedly.

Hidesign Windsor Laptop Satchel £179

If your laptop bag is also satchel like this one from Hidesign above, you’re most likely to be an academic with a traditional yet eclectic sense of style. You are intellectual but somewhat chaotic. Apart from your laptop, your bag probably contains sheets and sheets of loose papers, pens and a few books. You sling your satchel over your shoulder with nonchalant elegance.

Rowallan Baltimore Messenger Laptop Bag £124.99

If your laptop bag is a messenger style laptop bag like this one from Rowallan of Scotland, you are undoubtedly a cool dude. You are young (or at least young at heart), fun and laidback. You are an individual with a good sense of humour. You probably work in a creative industry or are a student and in addition to your laptop or iPad your bag contains some magazines and a can of coke.

Chiarugi Back Italian Leather Business Laptop Bag £375

If your laptop bag resembles this slick black leather laptop bag from Chiarugi above, your style is sleek and modern and you take pride in your appearance. You are very successful in what you do and travel internationally.

 
These stereotypes are of course just a bit of fun. However, in choosing your laptop bag it is important to make sure that it has the right look as well as all the necessary compartments for your individual lifestyle.

Laurige: Ladurée colours that you can enjoy every day

test test - Thursday, July 12, 2012

Famed the world over for its delicious sugary delights, Ladurée patisserie is one of the must see sights (and tastes!) for anyone visiting Paris. Unfortunately though, those expensive macaroons you treated yourself to as a souvenir are not going to last long. So why not remind yourself of Ladurée 's iconic Parisian confections with a chic Laurige business bag?

Chic French leather accessories brand Laurige's latest collection of ladies' briefcases and laptop bags epitomise classic Parisian style whilst drawing on the pastel shades of Ladurée 's ever popular macaroons as inspiration. Whilst carrying one of their beautiful leather business bags in soft shades of rose, violet or pistachio, you'll be transported back to the sights and smells of Ladurée s famous patisserie, even if you're trudging your way to work down a damp and dreary London street. Go on and indulge yourself...they're calorie-free!

Prices start at £150.

The best cross body bags for hot weather

test test - Monday, July 09, 2012

At first glance, a link between what handbag you choose and how well you endure hot, sticky summer weather seems counterintuitive. You don’t wear a bag, you carry it, so what difference does it make? Well, as anyone who’s been stuck in the heat hauling a giant leather tote or satchel knows, it can make a lot of difference. A bag might not cover you but it definitely spends a lot of time against your skin and body and especially when you’re outdoors, even that bit of contact can be extremely annoying as temperatures rise. Not to mention carrying the extra weight of a bag makes your body work even harder than it already does to cool itself.

The solution? A mini cross body bag. Not only are they lightweight, but you don’t have to carry them against your naked hands and arms or pressed up against your side – just a delicate strap on your shoulder and a little pouch at your hip. Because “mini” means different things to different people, we’ve rounded up your best options for this summer, all the way from microscopic crossbodies to slightly more medium-sized messengers.
