Miu Miu has long been a favorite brand of mine. Alongside the more traditional and classic designs of Chanel or Vuitton, Miu Miu screams contemporary, modern and youthful. Its exciting and eclectic designs are favorites of budding fashionistas and style icons. Personally, I love it because they can make even an ordinary hold-all look so darn good!
The key to these good looks are the fabulous and luxurious ingredients. The softest leather delicately aged for perfect style, the artistic proportions that make your outfit look better that it ever could before. Miu Miu has that certain magic.
This shopper is no exception. Simple and elegant, it hangs off your arm begging to be touched. Begging to be looked at, honored, treasured. An attention seeker all the way, the bag at first glance hides it well. It is only as you look deeper, at the craftsmanship and the special touches, that it really becomes something special.
I am a big fan of the ruching on this particular piece. The gently worn old leather gathers together like liquid. Fitting neatly in with the ruffles trend, this purse keeps it muted and wearable. It has space for all your belongings with its more than generous dimensions, and even gives you a detachable second handle. When making a financial commitment like this (and Miu Miu is rarely a bargain), it is the little extras that really make all the difference.
I have looked long and hard for any honest negatives, but must admit I am struggling. I will just mention, perhaps, that it is only held closed by a magnetic snap closure – not the most secure option. If you are carrying around the crown jewels, you may find yourself a little paranoid about safety.
The slogan describes this as “Cosmic and Contemporary” – and I agree. Perfect for fashion shows, parties, or even just the office, this is a multipurpose designer bag with more than a little x-factor!
