New York edginess meets California bohemia in this gorgeous fringe bag by JJ Winters. Finally, a bag that is equal parts hippie and moto-chic, made of the highest quality American materials and craftsmanship. This bag is so retro that it would seem right at home at a Led Zepplin concert, circa ’79, but fits in well with today’s rocker styles.
I love the hobo shape of the bag, and the slouchy soft black leather is just distressed enough to give it a perfectly loved-in look. The fringe side pieces give the bag a little extra bohemian charm, and the center silver O-ring and fringe tassel brings the look together perfectly. The strap closure is made safer by the full zip top.
I can’t get over the delicate contrast between the slim braided leather strap and the hard rock bag, but I do wonder how comfortable such a skinny minny strap would be if you stuffed this fringe bag to the brim. Anything more that your PDA and keys, and it might dig into your shoulder enough to make you beg for mercy.
Despite that, I love the look of the bag so much that I might be willing to overlook some of its impracticality. After all what’s going to work better with your skinny jeans and black leather jacket than, well, fringe and more black leather?
