For a while now I’ve worried that Miu Miu’s accessories may be blending into the background. They were perfectly polite, but they didn’t seem to rev me anymore. But there’s no danger of this mini flap shoulder bag being ignored!
The starburst appliqué which decorates this bag is completely wild. It’s very 80s, but it’s like nothing that the other retro trend followers are doing. I enjoy it when designers march to the beat of their own drums and interpret trends in different ways, but I’m also not sure about these stars.
The metallic shades are inspired, unexpectedly complementing one another and the purse’s gentle silvery tone. But I can’t imagine the stars having a very long shelf life. Fashion trends only need to shift a little and this purse will look silly, even though its base is very conservative.
If you don’t mind purchasing a new handbag when the next fashion trend sets in, go ahead. You’ll enjoy this purse’s trio of compartments and its ornamental shoulder strap. The rest of us may want to exercise more caution though. At $1055, this Miu Miu bag is just too expensive for something that may find itself in the back of the closet before long.
