Burberry Releases Hearts Bags for Valentine’s Day

Posted on: Feb 10

Burberry is the latest fashion label to show us some love. The British brand has launched a line of heart-print purses just in time for Valentine's Day.

The collection includes a range of four differently-sized bags from small shoulder purses to large totes. Each tote features Burberry's iconic nova plaid pattern overlaid with whimsical hearts. Or in the case of the Confetti Hearts tote, the hearts become part of the checkered print!

While the bags are ideal for Valentine's Day gifts, I'm not sure about their staying power once the Hallmark holiday is over. The youthful designs might appeal to teens, but older fashion fans will probably pass these over for more sophisticated styles. Personally I prefer the more subtle hearts bags the brand released not too long ago.

They're not priced for a younger demographic, with the smallest Painted Hearts Hobo Bag retailing for $295. If the large Painted Hearts Tote has you swooning, you'll need to pay $695. These aren't exorbitant prices by designer standards, but they do seem a little steep for a seasonal novelty.
