Jimmy Choo Lola Medium Slouchy Tote | Bohemian Tote With Leather Cutout Details

Posted on: May 5

Women all over the world find Jimmy Choo's shoes totally irresistible. I'm only somewhat partial to them myself, but I have to say that, for the most part, I have been totally disappointed by his accessories line. It lacks the sophisticated simplicity of his shoes, and falls a little short of what I expect from a high-end designer.

The Lola Medium Slouchy Tote, unfortunately, is no exception. There are things that I really like about it, like the sleek white leather and the elaborate perforated design. But the things I don't like about the bag outweigh the things I do like. The complicated braided leather and multiple clasp handle, for one, looks overdesigned and unwieldy. And the giant gold studs, I think, take something away from the delicacy of the cutout design. Plus, their star shape has sort of a country western appeal that doesn't fit with the rest of the bag.

I know that blatant branding doesn't bother that many people, but here again, I am one of the few, and I really don't like that JIMMY CHOO has been cut into the leather. It seems a little tacky and obvious. Overall, there is just too much going on here for me to focus on the beautiful parts of the bag, and that is a major bummer.
