I always thought Ed Hardy bags were too brash, too bold, and covered in far too much bling. But I might have found one to turn my head.
Make no mistake; the Julie handbag has all those elements. But on this smaller scale, and with its traditional evening bag style, I don’t seem to mind them too much. The Geisha print is colorful and detailed, like the tattoo you’d see on some exotic Yakuza girl.
Ed Hardy show uncharacteristic restraint in letting this design be the star on both front and back. The trapezoid shape with its shiny metal frame is an elegant match for the silver frame. Some might think it’s too chunky, but this is an Ed Hardy bag after all! It’s easily removable if you’d prefer a sleeker look.
You’ll know once you look at it that you won’t fit much inside. It’s very narrow, and the framed design won’t allow you to overstuff it. I appreciate the zippered pocket though, a more secure place for carrying loose change than the slip pouch.
At $130, the price is nothing to sneeze at for a purse of this size. But it’s got the looks to take you from day to night, at least if you know how to survive on the bare basics!
