If a regular canvas beach bag is just too boring for you, then you’re bound to fall in love with Betsey Johnson’s “pimped out” version.
The Betsey’s Showgirls Tote provides an interesting spin on a nautical-inspired, striped handbag. Where you might expect to see navy blue stripes, Betsey Johnson has instead replaced them with rows of shiny gold sequins. It’s an unexpected combination of super girly and sporty at the same time.
Flashy and unexpected is what Betsey Johnson does best though. Occasionally her designs are a tad too gaudy for my personal taste, but I like the Showgirls Tote. Despite this one’s attempt to be completely unique, a striped canvas tote can’t help but be a little simple, though this one can hardly be deemed basic.
The other options for the colored stripes, purple and pink, are a bit much for me, however. I much prefer the gold sequins with light brown leather trim. The Betsey’s Showgirls bag is lined in the signature Betsey Johnson lace-printed lining and retails for $185.
