Jimmy Choo makes chic handbags for women with refined taste. Urban fashionistas like me love his trademark sophisticated style, especially when he adds that extra little kick. The Caro is a great example of Choo’s ability to blend uptown and downtown styles with panache.
This little shoulder bag packs a wallop in terms of style. While chain straps are beginning to seem trendy, the strap on the Caro looks well-designed and well thought out. It’s partially because the slimness of the chain gives it a certain delicacy, and it’s partially because the chain itself is a little unusual. The alternating sizes of the links give it its own aesthetic that goes perfectly with the bag itself.
The small, smooth-grained purse is pared down and elegant, but the details are perfectly wrought. The intricate seam detail shows the quality craftsmanship, and the bar plaque closure on the front flap gives the Caro an edginess that is extremely appealing.
The small size of this bag makes it perfect for evening, but I think it could work for daytime as well. This versatility makes the $495 price tag seem reasonable, and the timelessness of the design makes it a worthwhile investment.
