Sonia Rykiel shows that even the simplest tote bag can command attention with this Over The Shoulder Bag.
It might be a head-turner, but I wish Sonia Rykiel had used a little more originality here. It’ll attract attention not because it’s particularly stylish or interesting, but because it’s such a glitzy shade of gold. I suppose it could pop against the right neutral outfit, but I’m not sure how I could easily incorporate this into my everyday wardrobe.
It’s a shame that Sonia Rykiel has gone for such a cheap, attention getting ploy because there are some nice design elements here. The pair of overlaid front pockets is really interesting, and I like the nautical feel of the thick, ropy straps. In a more subtle maritime shade, like ivory or sea blue, I could even part with the $525 Sonia Rykiel is asking.
As it stands though, I just can’t see the value. While its price isn’t exorbitant by designer standards, we’ve all seen totes that are much more intricate and versatile at this price point.
