Bulgari has such a way with materials that it can make even a drawstring handbag seem elegant. This Monete Shoulder Bag is a delicious case in point.
It’s strange that I’m so drawn to this shoulder bag because it’s everything that I ordinarily hate. I tend to find nudes bland, but the gentle wrinkling and warm hue of this one have won me over. I tend to dismiss drawstring handbags as too fiddly, but this one puckers so elegantly that I barely mind. I’m also swooning over the Monete’s silhouette, with its sturdy platform base and gentle structured curves. I’m not so enthused about the cameos on the chain strap, but they’re subtle enough to overlook.
There’s something so decadent about carrying a high end designer bag. We’re treated to a main compartment with a host of practical perks and just enough space. The pockets are trimmed in leather, and there’s also a handy holder for keys.
The price is enough to shake me from my daydreams though. At $2050 this Monete handbag is simply too rich for my blood. However if you can swing it I imagine its neutral color and sophisticated styling will serve you well.
