Reed Krakoff Cobalt Blue Atlantique Bag

Cobalt bags are hard to come by.... The elusive cobalt bag with suede by Celine literally was at my fingertips from annsfabulousfinds.com, but my conscience got the better of me. Do I really need to spend another $2,000++ dollars on another mini when that money could go elsewhere????
Introducing my second alternative, the Reed Krakoff Atlantique tote. I won't be buying it in python cause its 4,000 but would settle for good old leather for less than 1,500.
