Stella McCartney Recycled Hobo

Despite the fact that Stella McCartney does not use natural leather or fur in creation of her collections, her design projects always generate great interest and delight of the audience.

I think that Recycled Hobo bag brings just such a feeling. Of course, like any normal person I do not like being deceived, but the virtuoso deception is something totally different.

Look closely at the bag. What do you see? I’ll try to answer: a large hobo bag, made of nylon sponge color, which has an unusual perforated pattern resembling sunflowers or at least part of it. Know that you are cheated!

This is not perforated, but the picture is made of paint! Moreover, it is not a floral design, which it seems at first glance, but the usual logo of Stella McCartney, repeated many times on the surface of the bag! And let the nylon not be leather, it cannot be called luxurious, but is practical, easy to use and durable. The bag, of course, is very functional. Its dimensions are 32,5 x 52,5 x 25 cm, it is closed with ribbons – laces, the lining is made from jacquard olive green fabric, decorated with McCartney logo.

Stella McCartney Recycled Hobo is available not only in biscuit color, it is no less advantageous in classic black.Its price is $ 785.

Leighton Meester with a Bag from Valentino

Leighton Meester is simply irresistible and charming in this dress!

One should probably act in such serials as Gossip Girl only to have to wear such things! This is just an amazing band. Pleated shades of cream coat, black and white printed scarf, the same black and white gloves in houndstooth, beautiful gray brimmed hat of a retro-style and a cool bag from Valentino – all together for a creation of the harmony of soul and appearance.

Perhaps, in this regard stylists got a bit ahead of the fashion, but what a chic! Valentino 360 Hobo is a big romantic bag, in this case, sewn from fabric with floral prints and decorated with a large black leather bow.

I do not know whether there is a sale of just such a variant of Valentino 360 Hobo, but its leather counterparts, in red and black colors were available in August – September of this year, so the hope is still there.

Bottega Veneta Leather Experiments

Meg — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:39:31 +0000

It is impossible not to recognize designer handbags released under the brand Bottega Veneta.”Woven” leather, quilted drawings or the style intrecciato has already become a kind of “handwriting” of the fashion house. Yet from time to time the designers of Bottega Veneta risks to create projects that are far removed from their usual style, for example, such as bag Ebano Pailette-embellished Hobo.

Of course, the expression “very distant” is conditional. The bag is sewn of simple chocolate-colored leather, but it is entirely decorated with leather sequins at the same time. The use of sequins is quite actual nowadays, if you carefully follow the fashion; you will probably have noticed that everything possible is decorated with them – from evening dresses to shoes and handbags.

But usually these sequins are made of glossy plastic, gleaming when light spreads upon it. In the model Ebano Pailette-embellished Hobo leather sequins are used, not giving the usual metallic luster, and at the same time amazingly shimmering with natural radiance of the smooth skin. This give the bag another remarkable glory.

The form of hobo is accentuated with round edging, acting out of sequins “scale”. As to intrecciato, its beautiful weaving is used in the creation of double handles. The bag is closed with zipper of gunmetal color, which is harmoniously combined with the chocolate color of the leather.

The lining is made of suede; there is a wide pocket on a zip, trimmed with smooth leather with the name of Bottega Veneta and a compartment for mobile phone. Naturally, the price of the bag is corresponding.

To buy Bottega Veneta Ebano Pailette-embellished Hobo is possible for $4,200.
