After we caught a glimpse of accessories designer Emm Kuo’s upcoming F/W 2011-12 collection, we were ooohing and ahhhing all the way home. Quality materials and thoughtful construction–that is at the same time classic and unexpected–seriously up the luxe factor of these pieces in a way that renders the entire collection instantly appealing. The collection embodies feminine-edgy in the best of possible ways. It’s hard to choose favorites, but we were especially smitten with the rusty burgundy red specimen. Rectangular satchel with the chain strap, we’re lookin’ at you (and it’s got matte dutchess satin lining!). The top-handle bag and its sweet buckle straps is our other top pick, along with the two-toned portfolio clutch–a serious must-buy.
But really, all are smashing.
