Jessica Alba was seen holding the Alice handbag, a must-have accessory from the Chloé fashion house created for the winter 2012-2013 collection. Created from supple leather enhanced with a choice of either python or vegetable-tanned leather, its sleek, generous design is inspired by the 70s. This mix of textures is set off by a two-tone look offering a wide range of colour-combinations, from the softest pastels (sunrise, husky white) to the deepest darks (hot chocolate, fir green, black), sometimes even shimmering hues (holly berry). Alice offers the utmost simplicity with an attitude that is both casual and sophisticated. The bag’s two large outer pockets and its clean interior reinforce its “sporty chic” spirit. The signature of the House can also be found in the quality of the materials and the care with which the details have been added. The lateral origami finish and topstitching are the marks of true leather craftsmanship. But the Alice handbag’s sobriety and refinement does not take away from its practicality - thanks to a detachable strap, it can be carried two ways, while gold-toned metal hardware adds a chic yet sober touch. Available in two sizes, medium or large, for optimal holding capacity, the Alice handbag is not an it-bag - it is an absolute must-have.
