Why am I attracted to old-fashioned timeless pieces?

I saw this bag in person at Bloomingdale's last season and really loved the contrast of the gold on black leather. Super classy but difficult to style since it's a style on its own me thinks. I got it for 65% off retail price. Ahh..I love Hautelook.

Finally, a lady-like bag where my stuff won't get lost in the shuffle and where Dave won't ask me to stuff his stuff in such as his ipad ...or will it fit?

I don't know much about the Halston Heritage label but only that Sarah Jessica Parker was appointed President and Chief Creative Officer back in 2010 and that Halston used to be a super old American luxury brand.
