Been waiting to find the perfect purse to splurge on this summer? We've got you. Behold, the best red bag you could indulge in this season, and just in time for July 4th.
This stunning 3.1 Phillip Lim messenger is one hot little number (but beware, it comes with a price tag to match). Not too big for nighttime and just big enough for all of your daytime essentials (you know, matching red lipstick, sunnies, and a super-soaker), this satchel will turn your white T-shirt and cutoffs into the ultimate red, white, and blue ensemble just in time for any Independence Day BBQs. And hey, if we're doing it for America, to celebrate our patriotism and whatnot, that feels like reason enough to splurge, right?
3.1 Phillip Lim Red Pashli Messenger Bag, $750, available at Ssense.
