Bright fuchsia pink might just be the ultimate ensemble-accenting color for summer. And in decadent python, it’s lust-worthy. Though I’m still loving the larger clutches, this is a traditional dainty number that works for fine lunches and fabulous evenings in your best silk dresses. The discreet silver hardware gives it character without being intrusive to the gorgeous snakeskin, and gray striped grosgrain lining is a pleasing surprise each and every time you pop it open. I love the sense of humor of the little owl logo – her name is Miss Wu! – very subtle and so cute. This is simply a classic that will last for the long run, a wise investment in an uplifting and outfit-punctuating color. I would be pre-ordering my “Lauren” right now, but python can’t be delivered to California so someone will have to sneak it to me! At Bergdorf Goodman for $1595.
Pair with: Think ladylike with a twist. Brian Atwood’s “Greta” patent-leather shoes bring it; the peep-toed shape is classic, the studs and 6″ inch heel amp up the sex appeal. At Saks Fifth Avenue for $705.
Please just stick with your wonderful reviews of bags and leave the “pair with” to other sites.
One of the reasons I read your site daily is that I love how you focus just on bags. I feel like you are trying to infuse other aspects into your site which don’t fit. I understand that some people want guidance as to how to wear a bag, but those of us who are “bag snobs” don’t really need it, we already get it.
The bag is utterly cute, I love it

I haven’t written in yet to comment, but I must agree, the “pair with” is not necessary…
Tina, if you are going to continue with the “pair with” I would much rather see the format used today which does not include a picture. This allows the reader to go to the link if they want, or pass if they don’t want to. In my opinion I feel like the pair with is maybe a revenue generator as the brands give you ad space if they are mentioned? Otherwise I feel you are trying to expand into styling which you shouldn’t do. Thanks for listening to the feedback! Bag On!
I agree it’s not necessary, and I haven’t been clicking on the links so far. But if some people like it then I don’t see the problem with leaving it there and those people who don’t want to click can just ignore it.
I think the problem with this one is that the shoes and clutch really don’t go together at all. They really clash and not in a good way. Sorry Kelly, I agree with your taste normally. So maybe that’s why people feel that the “pair with” is not genuine, as this one seems there just for the sake of it.
