louis vuitton 2007 pre owned saleya pm tote bag item isla plumas feather clutch bag item is a bit of a misstep, it’s almost like the exception that proves the rule – Mulberry has a very keen sense of what it is that young, chic women want to carry. The Alexa and its success weren’t a fluke; the brand knows its customers.

ted baker porthos small flight bag Puma Academy Backpack, which, despite its name, is not actually a piece of luggage. Instead, it’s another crossbody satchel in the style of the Proenza Schouler PS1, which is a shape that’s earned the company lots of customers and even more money over the past few years. In bright green lizard-embossed leather, it’s a little slice of contemporary accessory perfection.

Embossed leathers usually fall somewhere in the uncanny valley for me, which means that I generally avoid them if possible. I try to keep an open mind for a really good embossing job, though, and this one falls into that category. If the bag had just been bright green, I don’t think I’d feel nearly the attraction for it that I do now, and without the texture, the color variation would look out of place. This design is a case when the embossing adds something instead of just being an unnecessary addition, which is all too rare. Ever since I saw this bag on the runway in September, I’ve been awaiting its arrival. Finally it’s here, and I’m still just as excited as the first time I saw it. mini dollaro shoulder bag.

I Love my Alexa and would probably love this if it was a different leather.  Not feeling the Lizard

With you there – lizard not happening for me either.

This is an example of trying to fix something that is not broken.  Leave the Alexa alone….it doesn’t need embellishments!

 To me, this bag seems to indicate that Mulberry has run out of ideas. This bag is the Alexa, just with a different middle closure and metal plates on the corners. That’s it.

And I’m with the other commenters on the leather. I don’t like it. But then again, I’ve always been a solid-color type of girl myself, so I’m not the target for this type of treatment on the leather.

Love Mulberry, even though their bags are made in China!!!
