I got a new wallet from the Cartier Santos collection and I am falling in love with it more every day. Many might not know this but Cartier has actually been in the game of leather goods for a while now and the fact that they are understated means that every piece of the leather goods are crafted with as much attention as their jeweleries and watches.
The Cartier Marcello bags have enjoyed enormous success with celebrities and the women of the high society ever since it was introduced a few years back. The fictional Queen of the upper-east side, Lily Bass, was spotted carrying this bag in the episode 4×01 of the Gossip Girl a few weeks back. If it fits for Lily, it so does for everyone. This beautiful cowhide and canvas version is being sold at USD1,850 at Cartier stores. Unfortunately the available man bags are still mostly rigid power briefcases for now, so not for me but I am happy adoring my precious wallet for its sturdy feel and beautifully textured “caviar” leather (which smell I love!!!).
