Antik Batik is constantly putting out downtown-cool, rock-and-roll-influenced, bohemian-yet-polished pieces that I instantly swoon over. And they present them at often-affordable prices, which is still so key these days.
Their newest one that I'm becoming increasingly obsessed with is the "Lola" beaded bag. With a coy take on studding, this tiny black bag has brass-tone beads adorning a random, asymmetrical section of one side and a tough chain strap. It's both cleverly edgy and dress-up fabulous...and its super-friendly pricetag of $190 makes me not hesitate to click "add to shopping cart"!
Need a little styling help with this one? How about pairing the Lola with black skinny jeans, a slouchy tank top, sequined jacket and bright suede heels...perfect for a night on the town. Not heading to the latest nightlife hot-spot? Dark blue denim flares, a sleek turtleneck sweater (also key in this awful, 17-degree weather!) and a cropped fur jacket work for a creative meeting or a lunch date on the weekend...with the Lola as the perfect accessory, of course!

In the last two or three centuries, batik one of the most important means of expression of the spiritual and cultural values in Indonesia, but also the broader region of Southeast Asia and even the world.
