Valentino’s been the king of chic Italian design for decades, and while the line has suffered ups and downs since his retirement, it seems to be on the upswing. This studded leather bag is a fabulous example of Valentino’s classy take on edgy downtown style.
The pale nude color of this tote is pitch perfect. It strikes absolutely the right balance of trendiness and timelessness. The evenly-spaced gold pyramid studs turn the bag into a soft spoken, motorcycle-inspired masterpiece. Even the buckle fastening at the front is embellished with studs, which adds to the bag’s dramatic flair.
The heavyweight leather of the bag has been tooled into a softly rounded rectangle. The only thing missing, as far as I’m concerned, is a full top zipper. It would improve the security and the practicality of the bag. Otherwise, this trendsetting handbag will make a beautiful, versatile addition to your wardrobe, even if it is a little expensive at $1,595.
