Alexander Mcqueen Samurai Print Canvas Tote: I Bet This Looked Better On Paper

I don’t like this bag. Nope. I said it, I don’t. I did try to, but it just didn’t happen. Alexander McQueen Samurai Print Canvas Tote is obviously a creative and interesting print, but as a whole I think this bag falls flat. The dress in this print is much more realistic and interesting.

Prada Knit Nappa Tote

My first knitting project looked better than this. OK, fine, I didn’t knit leather but at least I chose better colors. This looks like Little Red Riding Hood’s grandmother’s bag but without any irony. Why no trinkets here? That would give me a little something to mull over. I can appreciate the handiwork that went … Continue reading “Prada Knit Nappa Tote”
