I am really enamored with the aesthetic of Chloe’s new line of Cherry bags. I thought the mini version of this one was cool, but all the fun details really come through on this larger size.
The eye-catching red leather is buttery soft and just subdued enough to be totally versatile. One of the best things about a red leather bag is that whatever stylistic direction you take it in, it still looks totally singular. The Cherry would be the prefect compliment to a preppy nautical style or you could take it in a totally downtown rocker direction with no problem.
The shape of the bag has a 70s look that is really appealing. It’s almost like a compressed hobo with a flap top or a slouchy saddlebag. Either way, it’s perfect. The drawstring top emphasizes the softness of the shape, and the hand-tied knots on the strap are a sweet touch.
The front zippers might look edgy on another bag, but here they just look quirky and cute. Perhaps because they are balanced out, design-wise, by the side tassel. The overall effect of this adorable, but not so adorable that you couldn’t glam it up. At $655, the Cherry is a bit pricey, but for dedicated fashionistas, it will seem like a great buy.
