Accessorize Little Softee Purse | Metallic Faux Leather Shoulder Bag

Posted on: Apr 14

So often I see designer bags which appear overworked and ostentatious. That kind of garish design is never flattering, but at least these purses display a little personality. And that's the sort of pizazz I find sorely lacking with the Little Softee from Accessorize.

The faux leather is soft enough, but it certainly doesn't have the buttery texture of genuine cowhide, or the tactile appeal of suede. It's also not the kind of fabric which can stand alone as it's required to here. With a basic shape and only a little stitching for style, the Little Softee looks a little bland.

I do love the shoulder strap though, with its wide center and knotted details at the ends. If only such a modern look had been employed in the rest of the bag I may have been a little more inspired.

But the lack of bells and whistles does make the Little Softee a versatile choice. It's not likely to turn heads, but it will prove a functional accessory for years to come.
