Jimmy Choo’s accessories have always been a little hit or miss to me. Sometimes he makes things that should seem over-the-top, like bright animal prints, others look positively elegant, and sometimes his line just plain bores me. Luckily, this bag falls into the first category.
The combination of disparate elements is really what wins me over on this one. Here on the Odetta, we have pony skin, electric blue leopard print, and elaphe snakeskin accents. It should be too much. But it looks just right to me. This bag achieves an extremely delicate balance, and the result is pure luxury.
The pale gold accents are toned down just enough to keep the bag from pouring over the edge of tastefulness. The rectangular shape of the bag is intersected with the Y-shaped harness detail, which breaks up the print of the pony skin, and keeps it from being too overwhelming.
The harness detail is also on the sides, and its prevalence gives the bag an edgy vibe. The only thing I don’t really like about this bag is the magnetic closure at the top. For a bag this size, I really feel like it should have a zipper, as little things may be prone to falling out.
Not that you’re going to be throwing this bag around a lot. At $3,295, it’s just a little too precious for that.
