McQ Alexander McQueen Cherry Snakeskin Box Bag: She’s My Cherry Pie
Something about the fusion of wood and exotic is unnervingly sexy. Maybe it’s the fact that the two elements belong in the wild. McQ Alexander McQueen’s choice of a black-cherry hue adds to the already-heightened feel. And the pert shape, punctuated by silver studs, is both strong and dainty. I think I want to design … Continue reading “McQ Alexander McQueen Cherry Snakeskin Box Bag: She’s My Cherry Pie”
Nancy Gonzalez Crocodile Concertina Tote: Gotta Have It
I need this tote, like, yesterday. Nancy Gonzalez doesn’t just have knack for crocodile skin, she is basically the queen. So you can call me her humble servant! Especially now that this Concertina tote has caught my attention. And how could it not? There is something beyond sophisticated about gray croc; it’s classy, not showy. … Continue reading “Nancy Gonzalez Crocodile Concertina Tote: Gotta Have It”
Camilla Skovgaard Lizard-Effect Leather Sandals: The Great White
I’m slightly obsessed with these. Camilla Skovgaard’s take on the white shoe is dégagé: relaxed enough to keep you looking cool as the temperatures climb. Lizard-embossed leather is just fine with me. I don’t actually want to spend a fortune on white shoes, especially ones destined to get as much wear as these. Angular cutouts … Continue reading “Camilla Skovgaard Lizard-Effect Leather Sandals: The Great White”
Bottega Veneta Leather and Snakeskin Tote: Court and Spark
I’ve got a crush. An orange crush, to be specific. Forget lusting – I love this color! Bottega Veneta has wooed me again (the brand is a sneaky temptress), and I’m deeply coveting this splashy tote. The bright color works because the bag has balance. Allover tangerine would be too much; subdued panels of snakeskin … Continue reading “Bottega Veneta Leather and Snakeskin Tote: Court and Spark”
Jason Wu Kate Snake-Embossed Leather Shoulder Bag: Everything’s Coming up Rose
Don’t have a pink bag for summer? If you’re still not yet thinking pink, put grabbing one on your list pronto, along with snagging a pair of sage shoes and picking up a beach-ready turban. But I would put a rosy satchel at the forefront; it’s an absolute must at the moment. Even if you’re … Continue reading “Jason Wu Kate Snake-Embossed Leather Shoulder Bag: Everything’s Coming up Rose”
Derek Lam Small Snakeskin Anthea Satchel: I’ll Take Bore over More
I’m sorry but if you’re going to leave Tod’s, your namesake line has to step it up. I have no problems with this bag’s shape in general but doing it in a Venn diagram patchwork is just terrible. Pretty much, as a rule of thumb, the words “snakeskin” and “patchwork” should not share a sentence. … Continue reading “Derek Lam Small Snakeskin Anthea Satchel: I’ll Take Bore over More”
