Okay, suddenly Temperley London bags are everywhere I look, and I seriously don’t get it. Maybe it’s a matter of personal taste, but this season’s giant studs are totally underwhelming me. This Trinity messenger is the perfect example of a good bag gone wrong.
The combination of light brown and black leather on this bag is very well done. The color-blocked effect gives the Trinity a mod look that would be really appealing if it weren’t overlaid with all those giant gold and leather studs.
The shape is also really excellent. It’s a little taller than your average messenger, and a little narrower, which makes it more manageable and ergonomic. Plus, it has this great front pocket that is very convenient for little things that you need to get to quickly.
I might be able to get over all the studding on the bag if it weren’t also on the strap, but that addition, for me, takes it from simply over-the-top to downright unbearable. Who is Temperley kidding with this $950 price tag? The materials may be nice, but I’m not paying that much for shoddy, undisciplined design.
