For the many La Regale addicts out there, this brand is synonymous with affordability. Just occasionally they will produce a pricier item, with its luxury features inspiring lust in girls everywhere. This particular bag, however, is in a whole different league. At nearly $700, this is three times the cost of most other “costly” clutches on La Regale’s portfolio.
Of course, the first question to ask is why this bag is special enough to be worth this amount? Well, one look at the generous encrusting of rhinestone gems takes you in the right direction. This is truly the “Glitterati”, and will make you stand out in any crowd.
They really have gone the whole distance on this sparkling beauty – the highly shimmering silver is highlighted and reflected by the luminous gems. The kitsch chest shape design harps back to the similar and iconic Versace Cluch, just with supercharged bling!
This is yet another updated and on-trend interpretation of a classic, a particular talent of La Regale’s. It is an evening bag with attitude, designed to suit the most luxurious and elegant of occasions. With this sort of crystal on your arm, any red carpet will welcome you and you’ll have enough room for keys and money. You can even fit in a phone in order to ring up your friends and boast about your beautiful bag! To make your life easier, you have a long practical handle that can be hidden away when in front of the A-listers.
My hesitation? I struggle to see the long term success of a pricey bag coming from a not-so-pricey designer. No catwalk model or film star would see it as a serious attempt at luxury, purely because of it’s name. This may sound shallow, but all expensive bags rely on the name that goes with them – otherwise we wouldn’t pay such a markup. This brand just may not cut the super-brand mustard.
Conversely, if you aren’t bothered about brandnames, then this is a gorgeous and eye-catching bag. Just be careful to check if any of their cheaper models would do the job just as well, normally for less than $200!
