Fendi designs the Peekaboo for grown ups

So Fendi is one of those designers that can slip by quite unnoticed a lot of the time and I suppose when you’re in the business of fashion that’s not generally a good thing. Maybe it’s the down to earth style or the grown up tones but they rarely seem to ripple the handbag world pond with anything even slightly weird, then again there’s plenty of designers doing that already so why crowd the market?

Still I wouldn’t call this Fendi Peekaboo Tote that I just spotted conservative as the pink/violet leather really jumps out at you from a distance, yet it does seem dark enough to fit with a good range of trousers and belts. At the Fendi site it actually says the bag is made from goat and calf skin which is strange as it looks more like lizard or python to me, though at the same time all that really matters is that it looks great right? I also have to note another worrying pattern in the form of this tractor beam attracting me to handbags over £2,000 of which this is one (price will vary a lot though). Sometimes it’s hard to remember that this blog is supposed to be about cheap handbags lol, though as I keep saying what’s expensive to some is cheap to others. The thing is everyone’s range seems to be different these days (apparently there’s a recession on) so for some anything over £200 in the bag market is going to be out of reach. Still I do think there are lots of great bags in the “discount” range (apart from this one) eg DKNY and also Breadcrumb at only £15.

With all that being said if you do have a spare grand lying around doing nothing and also a passion for deep pink then check out the latest Fendi collection for some grown up bags!

New Fendi tote spy handbag

Fendi tote

So i may be a little late on this one but i wanted to post about this new Fendi spy tote bag that i just spotted for the first time. It was released during the summer but for some reason is only coming to my attention now.  Now this bag is very high end at its going to set you back over £1000 in designer outlets but it really is an work of art.

The sequins look really great and i like the way the violet refects in the soft light. One thing i do have to critize about this Fendi bag is that it is quite small and you could almost consider it a clutch its so compact. On the one hand it is easy to carry but you have to keep in mind your not going to be able to carry alot around with it. Its truly an act of style of practicality in this case but this has often been the case with many of todays (and yesterdays) high end designer handbags. Still its a very interesting bag, check out the main site for a closer look.
