If you choose a new bag this summer, may it be one that is timeless, well-made and of high-quality leather. Yes, you can have it all.

This summer, choose a bright color that will spark up your look and style. I found this little gem that not only covers the aforementioned “musts” when choosing the right bag but small too! We all know it’s a fact that the larger the bag, the more we put into it and forget that we only need the essentials. Make it small and have it be light and easy on your back.

This little gem is the Binocular “Cleo” bag by Il Bisonte, an old classic used by Elizabeth Taylor, and you can find it at JDRandCompany.com  The SRP $298.00
