The bag equivalent of a pair of shiny polished leather shoes would be this: the Christian Louboutin Polished Calf Alexis Document Holder that’s actually more a clutch with a top handle than an actual briefcase. Measuring a good 35.5 cm by 25.5 cm, it opens to reveal 2 two roomy pockets, as well as a separate compartment good for all your other essentials, including cards and stationery.

Priced at SGD1700, it’s a fine example of how sleekly understated and sophisticated Christian Louboutin can be away from all the studs, embellishments and crazy fabrics that can be a tad too much sometimes.
