Colorful hues, exotic skins and stylish designs make up the essence of
Johanna Konanz handbags. Inspired by old Hollywood glamour, the
designer set out to create a line of bags for every occasion, incorporating
an element of luxury in the materials she uses.

Without sacrificing a drop of style, Konanz uses premium python and
crocodile for her line of bags. All of the skins are sustainably sourced
under CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild
Fauna and Flora), a program in Colombia which works to maintain the balance
of biodiversity in the wild.

I was thrilled to review a hand-picked selection of Johanna Konanz bags up
close and personal. Beginning with a large, top handle red python and white
canvas bag, perfect as an everyday carryall. I love how this bag mixes
luxurous details like the python skin, and casual practicality of the
canvas. It gives a bit of a nod to the nautical as well.

The Firenze Handbag in bright yellow python is one of my
favorites. Double top handles and a bright purple suede lining create a chic
ladylike bag. The material is lightweight, perfect for a mom like me who
always seems to have too much stuff in her bag. I like how the empty bag is
light to begin with. Bag measures 12″ x 8″ x 7″.

The Amalfi Handbag is ideal for a day in town – lunch,
errands, shopping. A compact style and cross-body strap create convenience,
while the bright blue crocodile skin and canvas body provide a modern mix of
materials. The strap is detachable to convert the bag to a chic clutch. Bag
measures 12″ x 7″ x 2.

For evening, the Rimini Clutch is a must. Two colors of python skin
meld to create a stunning contrast, tied all together with a long chain
shoulder strap. This is one that will turn heads. The compact size holds
just the essentials for a night out. Bag measures 5.5″ x 7″ x 2″.

Finally, hold money and credit cards in the Capri Wallet. Bright red Crocodile skin adds a pop
of color. The zip around closure provides easy access. Sixteen credit card
slots, two billfold compartments and one zip pocket provide plenty of room.
Wallet measures 8″ x 4″. (I received a red wallet, but the one pictured on
the site is blue).
