Guess Tabitha Tote | Coral PVC Handbag with Rhinestone Logo

Posted on: Jul 24

Sometimes I think you're either a Guess girl or you're not. High-end snobs turn up their nose at the brand's love of PVC and embossed exotics, while plain Janes shudder at the bold colors and the rhinestones. While they never suit everybody, Guess is the arm candy of choice for many girls who love a bargain.

The Tabitha tote has all the trademarks of a classic Guess bag. Rhinestones? Check. Bright colors? Check. That affordable PVC finish? Check and check. Yet it doesn't look as overworked as so many Guess handbags, so perhaps it might win the brand some new fans!

The first trick is keeping the shape simple, so the embellishments aren't competing with anything else. Then the colors are kept complementary, so the reptilian straps add subtle interest rather than screaming. The rhinestone studded logo stands loud and proud, but the label's fans would be disappointed if it didn't!

Guess' designs are so ostentatious, we often forget that its handbags are pretty practical. The Tabitha is no exception, with a large zippered pocket and three slip pouches helping the roomy inner space stay organized.

Guess prides itself on affordable prices, so it's no surprise to see the Tabitha retail for less than $100. That should please fashionistas feeling the pinch of the financial crisis!
