The popular show Gossip Girl is a veritable hotbed of the latest fashions. It seems that any article of clothing or accessory that appears on one of the stylish characters practically flies off the shelves. Though the television show’s wealthy, trendy gals usually carry the latest high-end designer bags like Lady Dior and Gucci’s Hysteria, the average viewer rejoiced when they saw this reasonably priced Maxx New York tote pop up on the show one evening.
The Monte Carlo Shopper is relatively inexpensive (especially for the GG fashion world) at just under $150. The PVC material is most likely the reason for the low price tag. While not a typical handbag material, the Monte Carlo is practical and durable and will even satisfy animal lovers who dislike the use of leather.
I love the spectrum of bright colors offerred by this Maxx New York purse. The electric blue is a natural standout, but the Monte Carlo also comes in equally eyepopping shades of silver, gold, orange, and a standard black. Each color has a slight sheen that has the appearance of patent leather.
The interior is lined in polyester for a little extra practicality. You’ll also find several pockets for organization. A zippered pocket on the front of the tote is convenient and cute, and studded panels on the sides are a nice touch. You don’t have to be a fan of Gossip Girl to appreciate the practical design and stylish touches on the Maxx New York Monte Carlo.
