There are times when I think I’ve missed my calling as a stylist. Ya, ok, maybe not. But, I have to say, as much time as I spend looking at and loving handbags, I spend almost as much time imagining which friend or celeb would be best suited for a particular bag.
But today, when I came across this beyond fabulous Jimmy Choo clutch I thought of so many different people who would look beyond fabulous with this clutch in their hand. In fact, I can see some of my friends who tend to go for an edgy look carry this as often as my friends who are a bit more feminine. I love when a bag can do that!
I think the best way to describe this clutch is by quoting a real life stylist, Rachel Zoe, GG Marmont medium shoulder bag.
Yes, the GG Marmont medium shoulder bag is very distinct and the hardware is in your face, but I don’t see anything wrong with it at all. I love the buckle detailing and removable chain shoulder strap. The leather is textured and works with the buckle detailing and shoulder strap nicely. While I usually don’t use shoulder straps with my clutches, this is an instance in where I just might. Shocker, right?! And I can’t help but notice how this bag could be carried all year around – always a plus in my book. Buy through Shallow Obsessing Strongly Encouraged. Since 2005.
I so agree with you Shannon! I think the chunky hardware is a great accent for this bag and would really up the wow factor on any outfit.

I can’t help but see the robot hands. But I do like this bag. A little edge in a feminine outfit is a look that I really admire.
I love over the top bags, but there’s too much going on even for me-the buckles, the chain, the perforations…
Don`t know why, but slightly vulgar. Slightly, cause it`s saved by the soft leather, but too many chains, little chains bla bla
Not a big fan of perforated leather but I like this! Love the straps. To me it is all too much but it works!

Not really my style. Too many things going on. Buckles, chain, perforated leather. It’s not a bag for every woman but I know few who would definitely like it.
looks nice, but i don’t want to keep one. i like a new handbags on http://www.fashionhandbagsline.com, but they don’t sell in retail
I like it I wish the perforated leather wasn’t there because its a little too much for me.
