What do you think of this?
Valentino Shiny Napa Petal Tote
$2,295.00 @ Bergdorf Goodman
I really like it a lot. But, my close friend's fashion forward sister just payed $2,156.00
LESS, for that:
Big Buddha Mia Bag
$67.50 @ The Addison Collection.Net
And, while it's neither designer nor leather, this bag is made of eco-friendly "pleather".
Hey, its chic, its practical and no harm was done to animals...
or your wallet.
It is cute, and the color is perfect for spring.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great alternative! Pretty color.
ReplyDeleteGreat find! I LOVE the Valentino (and would buy it in a second if it wouldn't mean I would be homeless and hungry), but the Mia bag is a great alternative until I win the lottery.
ReplyDeleteI love it!!
ReplyDeleteI saw this last week and saw lots of those ruffly type treatments--
ReplyDeletepretty!

Im not diggin it at all. I have a hard time thinking that someone would drop over 2K for a bag that is good for one season. Especially when I have difficulty getting a client to buy an entire sofa for that. But I would definitely entertain the mia bag!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the bullet proof brooch.

Which is more nerdy than fashionable, but I love the idea.
Love the bag, but I have a big black one like the top one albeit the price tag and the leather...it's a summer tote for the beach with a huge black flower...I love it! Bought in the Hamptons for about $30.00!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness---talk about a steal! Your friend is a very smart woman. Love it. XO
ReplyDeleteI would definitely go for the That, not the This... but wouldn't it be fun to own something that is Valentino (sunglasses anyone?)
ReplyDeleteGREAT BUY!
