Fendi Peekaboo Embroidered Tote | Sweet Black Vintage Look Emroidered Tote

Posted on: May 14

Fendi has really been surprising me lately. The line seems to be stepping away from its usually ostentatious, in-your-face aesthetic and moving towards something a little softer. This new look combined with the chic Italian touches that made Fendi famous makes for an amazing handbag.

The Peekaboo reminds me of a Mary Poppins' magic bag, only loads more stylish. I love the retro rose embroidery and the way the jeweled color scheme contrasts with the deep black of the background. It looks handcrafted without looking too artsy-craftsy, which is a really delicate balance.

The generous size and multiple strap options make this bag a really practical choice. Except that it's $6,995. It's basically the price of a two-year old economy car, and it's not even leather. So, even though I think the Peekaboo is terribly terribly cute, I think the price is way out of line.
