Dandy & Dapper
Of course. Instead of dark brown, consider a more Italian caramel brown. Louis Vuitton carries an unrivalled range of briefcases in a spectrum of tones and materials, including the light brown Nomade Leather collection in the small Honore to the large Robusto 2 models (HK$24,300 to HK$51,500). Something else that might appeal is the Document Holder bag by Tod's, made in a modern, simple design from either pebble leather (HK$10,900) or ultra-soft calfskin (HK$16,800). Colours range from caramel brown to bright blue, and several others in between. Please note one should ensure shoes, belt and other leather accessories are of the same tone.
Colour, Dapper! Not more brown, thank you very much. I say go for it, man. And I don't mean neutrals. Both of the above brands are rocking some beautiful bright blues. So is Alfred Dunhill, believe it or not, whose Bourdon zip briefcase comes in royal blue and turquoise, not to mention red and light grey (HK$8,995 each). Along the same, minimalist lines, there's the Prada zip-top Saffiano bag in blues, browns, or forest green (HK$19,550). No one said you can't rock a few colours, either. Check out Bottega Veneta's Intrecciato (woven) briefcases, from solid colours to the Club Fume style with centre stripes of aubergine and Edoardo brown, flanked by either emerald green or bronze (HK$22,500 to HK$31,500).
