The Chloe collection always finds a way to surprise me. Its use of unusual colors, textures, and shapes makes the designs stand out. This Ethel tote is no exception to that rule. Its fabulously innovative design makes it a beacon in a sea of boring handbags.
The dark pink leather has a great weathered appearance that makes it casually chic, and the color is some perfect midpoint between baby pink and cordovan. The shape of the bag is sleek and simple, but with a few extra touches that make it interesting. The pleating at the front of the bag, for example, adds more texture to the Ethel’s appearance, and the contrasting tan leather patches on the handles add a bit more color and depth.
You will have no problem finding room for life’s necessities in the roomy Ethel. It’s even large enough to tote a small laptop or netbook, and with its tailored good looks it will be a stylish addition to your work wardrobe. The removable shoulder strap is a convenient option, but it is scarcely wide enough to be comfortable.
At $1,350, the Ethel is less expensive and more stylish that many of its competitors. It is a very pretty, very chic tote at a decent price for a designer handbag that is bound to become one of this season’s It bags.
