When it comes to proven investments (I'm talking handbags, of course) Prada has been on the "It" list for decades. With all respect to trendy new shapes and emerging designers there is something about the luxe structured Prada creations that makes them timeless.

To capture that timeless quality the brand recently released the "Galleria" collection, named after the its first store in Milan. Classic styles in a range of luxury materials such as saffiano leather and basic colors such as black, red and gray - this is one bag you will treasure for ages.

That's why when time came for me to celebrate another business milestone, Prada was a natural choice. I can see this Saffiano gray tote carrying me into business meetings, sending the message "I've arrived"...
