We were asked to clean up our language so I will try my
damndest best to do so on this very unattractive and ridiculously expensive bag.
Oh Bulga, ’tis been almost a year since I ragged on thee but it seems things over yonder have not changed much. How one can continue to churn out bags such as this and still stay in business is beyond me. Before I continue I want to point out that this bag is not leather (okay, so the band across the top and the handles are leather scraps) it is merely tie dyed DENIM. As in COTTON. As in the stuff that costs 95 cents a pound. Get my drift? Okay, so now I’ll tell you the price, no no no, it’s not the $15 that it looks to be worth. It is $595. Go ahead and take some time to gasp before I continue.
Done? So let’s explore all the things you can buy for $595… well it’d take all day and frankly, I have an appointment and can not spend any more time on this. I’m sure you can figure out how to spend this money on your own. On another note, I am certain I am hated over at Bulga headquarters and I just want to state for the record that I am really looking forward to the day that I can rave and gush about a Bulga bag.

Hideous bag! WTF!
maybe if it was at target…wow bulga.
I am actually offended that a designer would produce a bag that looked like this for our consumption at this price. It should be 19.99 at Walmart
Then I would consider buying it as a grocery re-usable bag
I had a cute batik dress that looked like that . . . when I was 3.
I was about to say, what about the rest of the collection. Then i looked. Even the one that is solid colored is “worn throughout” so it looks all ragged. For $635. I guess the distressing was done by hand so it costs extra.
I agree with Jamie.. WTF?!
Sadly, if some celeb shows up with it (worse things have happened)
then what? A hit on Ebay? If Bulga is going to make some really BIG
HUGE changes in the brand…why not start with the unappealing name itself.
And even if it is the founder’s name…change it anyway. CHANEL lucked out. As opposed to Coco Bulga? What’s in a name—EVERYTHING.
Pure ugliness. How is that company still in business? I mean, they’ve had one or two nice bags, but their output is so tasteless recently. How much do they pay the celebrities to carry their stuff?
