Ed Hardy’s designs aren’t for anyone who dislikes standing out in a crowd. I’ll admit that the label, with its showy prints, doesn’t generally appeal to my personal taste. However, this Malika satchel in ivory is less ostentatious than some of the label’s other bags and just might interest both Ed Hardy fans and those who tend to shy away from the brand.
While perhaps not quite as flashy as a style like the Queena, the Malika still has a bit of edge to its look. The tattoo-inspired print on the middle panel is bordered on both sides by vertical rows of studs, and the handle anchors continues the vibe with more of the rock-and-roll detail.
The biggest turn-off on the Malika, in my opinion, is the large logo on the bottom corner of the satchel. Even though the silver color matches the print of the middle panel, it seems a tad overdone, especially considering the fact that there’s already a logo plate at the top.
The ivory-colored polyester and PVC material has a sheen that matches well with the overall vibe of the handbag. I’m not loving the brown and orange options also available for the Malika since they have more of the quintessential Ed Hardy look, but the light ivory is a nice contrast to the tough style of this satchel.
