Object of Lust: Gucci Diamante Canvas Bag

The power of having a great history: you discover the heritage and how you become an iconic cult. That includes Gucci. And somehow Frida Giannini has unleashed the time capsule of Gucci and discover the iconic criss-cross pattern featuring small, dark brown connecting diamonds on a tan background that is once becoming the signature print of the design house (which is now evolving into the interlocking G's monogramme). Originally created in the 1930's as a brilliant solution to pre-war shortages of leather, Gucci's iconic diamond-patterned canvas has been reinterpreted into the covetable Diamante Canvas Collection.

The collection comes in a limited edition line of accessories and shoes. But the one that I'm falling in love with is this bag. Understated but edgy. Simple but Gucci. Is it gonna be my 'object of lust? Absolutely!
