Love Moschino Vernice and Vitello Tote | Quilted Patent Tote with Leather Accents

Posted on: Jul 19

Love Moschino, sister brand of Cheap n Chic and handbag royalty Moschino, is a hip and happening handbag creator that likes to give a unique twist to traditional designs.

This tote from the Vernice and Vitello range is channeling (no pun intended) the Chanel artistry of quilted patent leather, a high impact look that tends to product stylish and comfortable purses. The quilting on this piece is quite superb, creating a glossy bubbled look with neat stitching and plenty of wow-factor.

To add to the somewhat traditional quilted leather style, Love Moschino have contrasted the patent with a matte navy and red corner trim and feature pocket. I don't quite understand the addition of navy, which makes this handbag a little over crowded, but do agree that the red trim adds a certain panache. This is most effective on the spacious front pocket with its designer buckle and roomy shape.

Whilst the looks are not for everyone, not many people will have much to complain about with the practicality and additional touches to this designer bag. To name but a few, this bag has inner and outer pockets with cute red leather tags, plenty of room, and dual handles. The second handle, a durable duffel bag strap, may not be the most stylish or coordinating part of the bag but will make life easier when that tote is stuffed to the max!

This is a pricey but interesting hold-all, overloaded with features and practical additions.
