Want: Balenciaga Pocket Tote Bag

I don't think I was ever this taken with a Balenciaga bag as I am with this simple pocket tote. It's the clean lines, minimal hardware and overall understated chic of this bag (a sharp contrast to the famous Balenciaga Motorcycle bag which I absolutely loathe). At 13x14.5x5.5 inches this bag is big enough for just about anything one might need without being obnoxious or grossly disproportional. I'm in love.

Surprisingly for me, my favorite version of this bag is the khaki one above ($1066 from matchesfashion.com). Barneys carries two other colors: red and chocolate brown, nicely marked up at $1345.
