I have this weird thing with black bags. When wearing one, I often feel this 'distance' between me and the bag, like it doesn't suit me. On the other hand, I can really like a black bag when seeing it worn by somebody else or just in stores. I decided it was time to break this lunacy and just bought a black one. I love the combination of the leather and the studs + I do think my wardrobe could use a little touch of 'tough'.
