Rebel against the darkness of winter with this bold red tote.
Meetings of girly features and more aggressive touches are all the rage in fashion at the moment. You know: combining lace with leather, or bows with denim. The Hype interpretation of this trend is this Christy tote, which matches cute gathered ruffles with aggressive studded pockets.
The effect, generally, is quite positive. Because of the bright red leather this is an obvious bag anyway, and that means that the somewhat over-the-top nature of the gold studs and ruffles manages to work. However, it does look a little pieced together, and is lacking that continuity that can make a good handbag into a great one. You know, that difference that means every element fits together seamlessly.
If this north/south hold-all seems somewhat try-hard, then at least it succeeds when it comes to size and capacity. Not only do those studs conceal exterior pockets, but that slouchy leather gives you tons of room inside, perfect for those girls who need everything except the kitchen sink with them when they leave the house.
At the reasonable price of just $139, this gathered tote is stylish and cool.
