I actually played around with the Stella McCartney Falabella Tote ($1,145) that Jennifer Lopez was photographed in a few days ago when I was Bloomingdale’s. This time of year I’m totally focused on sale shopping so it says something about the appeal of the bag that my eye was drawn to it even though it wasn’t surrounded by a red ticket discount sign! It’s a simple, stylish, versatile everyday bag, though I find it hard not to think of Chanel when I look at it. I love the rocker-chic side-chain detail, but there is one major drawback to this piece – since McCartney doesn’t use leather in her work, the shopper is made out of cotton and for cotton I really do not think a four-figure price is appropriate (though by that logic I may be somewhat of a hypocrite, because I’m an avid collector of non-leather SM shoes!).
What do you think about Jennifer Lopez’s McCartney? Snob or Slob?
