Nothing makes a handbag a hit faster than a little celebrity support. Versace got it when Jessica Alba and Eva Mendez were spotted carrying the gorgeous Hit bag. That confident moniker probably didn’t hurt the purse’s popularity either!
The star appeal might turn your head, but the handbag’s high quality finish will capture your heart. It’s made from glazed grained leather trimmed with patent for a little extra shine. The hexagonal shape is so eye-catching, and unlike many unique purse designs it doesn’t compromise storage space. But I could have done without the polished silver nameplate, which doesn’t seem to really mesh with the Hit tote’s earthy tones. Yet I know so many fashionistas love to flaunt their name-brand bags, and it does that without appearing too flashy.
Two exterior zip pockets don’t provide a lot of storage room, but they are a convenient place for storing the goodies you want on hand. The interior is much more practical with its large zippered pocket, roomy slip pocket, and handy cell phone pouch. The sides zip up for a little security, while the open top offers easy access to your mobile when it starts to ring.
The structured handles look chic, but I can’t imagine they’re too comfortable when your Hit bag is full. A tote of this size is so easy to overload, and those short handles are just another example of Versace sacrificing practicality for good looks. Of course the label gets those looks so right, so for all its flaws the Hit bag is still hard to resist.
