JJ Winters gives us an accessory with youthful energy with this Chain Stud Shoulder Bag.
I’m sure that teens are going to love this purse, with its array of differently sized studs and poppy golden zipper trim. It’s just the sort of bag I can imagine dangling casually from the shoulders of Hollywood starlets or the cast of 90210. But as someone of more mature tastes, it just doesn’t do much for me.
JJ Winters has always been swayed by the trends, but this seems a little too much like “edgy design by numbers.” There’s really nothing new here, so while the elements are executed well I feel as if I’ve seen it all before.
It’s also on the small side, which is both a blessing and a curse. While no one wants to feel weighed down by their everyday purse, they also want it to hold everything they need. This might do it with some careful packing, but it’s going to be a tight squeeze.
But at least JJ Winters doesn’t charge us a fortune for it. Teens might still need to save their pocket money to afford this $218 purse, but considering its luxury materials it’s still a fairly inexpensive way to indulge in modern trends.
