What's Your Favorite, Can't-Live-Without-It Handbag? (Mine's By Tano.)

Tano, Tano bag, Tano handbag, Tano purse, handbag, purse, fashionWe all have that one special handbag that, no matter how many we buy after it, holds a special place in our hearts. Maybe you bought it at a pivotal time in your life. Maybe it was a bag you'd wanted for years. Or maybe, in the case of my Tano bag, it was an impulse purchase that turned into the bag you can't live without.

Truth be told, I hadn't even heard of Tano before I set my eyes on this bag back in 2008. I walked into Bergdorf Goodman intending to buy a dress -- for what, exactly, I don't remember -- and, instead, walked out with this purple bag that changed my life. Overly dramatic, I know, but it's the complete and honest truth.

The color and shape were originally what spoke to me about this bag. I also have to admit that since it was under $200, I could justify the impulse buy. But the longer that I've had it, the better the bag has looked. The leather ages so amazingly well, and it came treated so it even weathers a rainstorm without any wear and tear! (I found this out when I got caught in a rainstorm and discovered that rain only makes the bag look BETTER.) The multifunctional shoulder and crossbody straps and the fact that it's big enough to fit a 15-inch laptop only add to its allure.

I honestly don't know what I would have done without this bag over the past few years. I travel everywhere with it -- it's been with me in Hawaii, in Grand Cayman, in Boston, in Pittsburgh, and of course in New York.

If you want your very own Tano bag, head to tanobag.com. I can't recommend one highly enough!
