Finally, a Prada bag concept that’s both practical AND cute. Check out Renée Zellweger and Kate Winslet sporting their Prada messenger style tote bags, fashioned from the classic tessuto and saffiano fabric and personalized with their initials. While a bag with monogrammed initials can definitely go the route of cheesy, there’s something innately stylish about this one. Not only is the tote bag, with its long strap and double handles, extremely practical for everyday use, but the letters, available in a wide variety of colors and designs, are utterly adorable for all ages.
A quick call to Prada revealed that the letters are actually some sort of polished brass that is punched through the tote at any spot you desire. The best part? There’s no month-long wait; the sales associate can place the letters on while you wait in the store! It’s a great way to add some individuality to your work bag. Or it can make for a great present (fill it with candy and other goodies for an extra treat!)
$540 for the tote, $30 per letter (maximum of two), available at Prada boutiques.
Normally I’m not a Prada-bag-girl, well, not a nylon-Prada-bag-girl, but I am a fan of monogram and this is such a fun casual bag. Love it!
The letters look like they are from a high school varsity jacket.
what do you think about this
Not liking this at all. Too common. Too casual for Prada.
eeew it looks tacky to me
are these available already?
Went to to the NYC store and these aren’t available til spring. Sad.
I went to the store and this bag is actually $1020- NOT including the initials or tax. What a rip-off!
