  • The Alexander McQueen Croc Mini Bag

    One of my most impromptu finds in the beginning of fall was this Alexander McQueen Black Croc Mini Bag. I was originally never on the look out for a black bag and was looking to inject more of a dark burgundy or green color to my handbag nook but this was such a cute bag in the classic mesmerizing croc print that I just couldn’t resist heading straight to the check out tab #zeroselfcontrol.

    STYLE

    The size and style of the bag is SUPER well structured with a strong patent croc finish really adding that extra oomph to the look. The black with dark cranberry suede lining is also such a pretty contrast and adds more character to the interior. This one also had a small little card holder which eliminates the need to carry around a bulky wallet.

    Another favourite feature of mine is the chain and gold hardware, both the length and the finish. A gorgeous classic gold fixed style chain is a highlight of the bag’s overall look and finish with the Alexander McQueen iconic skull embedded with two champagne Swarovski crystals front and center. The designer name is also firmly stamped in gold on the reverse side of the bag. Absolutely swoon worthy in all its perfection.

    SIZE AND WHAT IT FITS

    Dimensions: 7.5″ length x 4.75″ height x 2″ width.

    Closure: Snap Metallic Closure

    This Alexander McQueen mini bag is absolutely in my favourite size. Easily fits my iPhone (not the Pro Max, that would be too big), cards (there is a slot for those), lipstick and mini sanitizer. These are basically my main essentials for an evening or afternoon out so if you also move around light, it’s perfect.

    PRICE

    On the spectrum for a luxury handbag, the affordability of this one is excellent! Retailing for $900/ + tax, it’s an excellent under $1000 designer handbag find. As I mentioned in previous blog posts (see Manolo Blahnik post here), sites like Matches Fashion, Luisa Via Roma and Farfetch have quickly become my absolute favourites for nabbing deals on a bunch of items tagged in my wishlist. I went for this on Matches Fashion which was amazing price wise because I ended up getting a 15% off code (get it here) on YouTube. If you’re shipping to Canada or the U.S. like I did, it’s also perfect to shop on these sites because all of the taxes, duties and shipping is included in the final check out tag so there are absolutely no surprises on the day of your delivery.
