Now that it is officially spring, everything is blossoming, including bags. Why not include accessories in the new bloom? I know I have done nothing but rag on the Valentino crap flowery bags but for some reason I am taken by this one. The ruffles are more abstract so they’re not literally flower pedals like the others, the looseness of the giant vertical folds work great for a long tote and of course the color, this blue, is so divine and gorgeous, it just makes me lust. I figured, if I need a big utilitarian tote, I can still do so with some flare and this definitely is more fun than a plain sack. I am so glad the cold weather is behind us, that means the cute dresses and shorts and super fun bags to go with. I just got back from NY where it was in the 60’s and I walked around in a t-shirt and jeans, this bag would have come in handy to complete the look. The Valentino Rose Vertigo Tote
