Mellow World is set to polarize bagistas with its big and bold Monica.
This is definitely a bag for girly girls. It’s available in just two shades: fuchsia pink and passion purple! These hues were bound to get noticed anyway, but just in case they might go undetected Mellow World has used a glossy patent-like synthetic. This material is embossed with a scaly texture; it doesn’t really imitate any reptile I’ve seen, but it does make the finish even more interesting.
Not that it needs more to draw the eye. This bag is massive, and so much bright color on such a large canvas does look a bit overwhelming. There’s also the little matter of the material. We wouldn’t expect genuine leather for $79.95, but I would have appreciated something of more quality. This imitator simply looks tacky, especially in the vivid colors offered.
After all that flash, the subdued and practical interior comes as a bit of a shock. This is a surprising space, from its plain black lining to its functional design. A large zippered pocket in the center divides the space into three separate sections. There are more zippered pockets in the side walls, along with open pouches for your cell phone and sunglasses.
Of course, if you don’t like the look all of those features won’t matter a jot. But if the Monica has caught your eye, this bag will serve you well, if only for a season or two!
