It’s no longer simply a novelty dance from the 90s. Now the Macarena is making a comeback thanks to Laurel and Sunset.
While the dance was flamboyant and fun, this is a more mellow number. The details are interesting, but the gentle gray colored synthetic letter mutes the effect. It’s a good thing too, because those accents could have looked very busy. Horizontal pleats add further texture to this slouchy bag. This gentle ruching is accented with a row of leatherette buckles which runs down the center of the bag. The rope-like metal details underneath the handles add a vaguely Western vibe to proceedings. These accents look a little out of place, but by using complementary colors they’re a little easier to ignore.
This is a really practical tote, with plenty of useable space and enough pockets to keep it organized. I particularly appreciate the large zippered pouch which separates the tote into three separate compartments. The cotton-nylon blended lining is durable, although its boring beige color isn’t very exciting. The slightly sunken zip closure offers security without disturbing the tote’s good looks.
The Macarena carefully toes the line between classic and cutting edge. And at just $39.90, it won’t break the bank either!
