It might be a new season purse, but with the Jasper Paul Smith revisits the designs we know and love.
You might remember me complaining about the very dull Trixie bag a couple of months ago. I longed for the color Paul Smith is famous for, and perhaps he listened. The Jasper is covered with the colorful swirl pattern that made Paul Smith a legend. Yes it looks a little like a rainbow vomited all over it, but there’s an appealing whimsy to the design.
The print is impossible to ignore, so Paul Smith allows it to take center stage by keeping the rest of the purse simple. The vintage frame design is classic, with its push top closure and golden chain. That chain offers us the best of both worlds; the metal links give it real class while the leather insert protects our shoulder. This mid-sized but slender purse won’t hold a lot, but it also shouldn’t overwhelm your outfit.
At a little more than $500 the Jasper is probably priced too high, but it’s not exorbitant enough to deter Paul Smith’s faithful fans.
