Balenciaga Patchwork Arena
Balenciaga gets an award for recycling scrap leather in this version of the Arena bag. Balenciaga looks lazy trying to rehash the same bag shape again and again. Though the Arena bag was once cool, it’s past its prime. This is definitely on my not to by list. At Barneys $2,345.
Alexander McQueen Houndstooth
Everyone slips up once in a while, even the great ones perched high in fashion kingdom. But when they fall, they fall even harder than others.

She was … Continue reading “YSL Urban Jungle Muse”

I mean it would make more sense but then you’d lose out on the kaleidoscope … Continue reading “Louis Vuitton Denim Bag: Snob or Slob?”
Jimmy Choo KiKi Bag: Snob or Slob?
Check out Rachel Bilson with the latest Jimmy Choo arm candy, the Kiki bag. Many bag designers have jumped on the Tribal Safari trend this season (remember the MJ mess?) but Jimmy Choo’s version is softened up with tortoise shell chain strap which gives it an elegant touch. Keeping the wild safari tone mostly on … Continue reading “Jimmy Choo KiKi Bag: Snob or Slob?”
Bottega Veneta Mini Crochet Ball Bag: Snob or Slob
I really have no words for this ball (spare tire holder?) bag from Bottega Veneta. It’s 18″ around so I don’t know how one is supposed to carry it, balanced on your head? Clutched to your middle like a pillow? Yes, I know when you pick up the all leather version it slouches like a … Continue reading “Bottega Veneta Mini Crochet Ball Bag: Snob or Slob”
