Yuck! I agree! I have a question for you. This week you have been talking (indirectly) about your favorite bag (by way of showing other alternatives). Some readers have indicated that you shouldn't accept a substitute. Lets pretend that someone gifted it to you. Brand New. Do you think that it would be the "bag to end all bags" for you, or do you think you would still feel the desire to purchase other bags? I ask because I also have a weakness for excellently crafted bags, and recently found one that I just REALLY REALLY couldn't forget. My question is: Do you think handbag lovers like us can be cured by the possession of the one we really want?
Oh dear! My MIL used to own a bedazzler and everything was a target -- this photo is bringing back some bad memories that I had hoped were forever expunged.
Shocked and appalled. aaonce, if I received a gift bag that I liked, but it was not the "love of my life" bag, of course I would buy another one. Maybe that would ever drive me to buy another bag sooner :) I have several gifts in storage, never carried.
I think it's hysterically funny! It shows a healthy irreverence for fashion, if it was executed ironically, and if not.... it's still a hoot! I can just see fashonistas swooning right and left in horror at the desecration of The Icon.
Look it probably is wrong but it is also very Funny!
Sonia Rykiel( All Hail the Queen of Knits) produces a bedazzled bag every season and if they weren't so prohibitively 'spensive I'd have got my little mitts on one by now.
Personally I like a bit of Bling. But I thought Ivana looked good in the 80s too so don't trust me.
but it just seems so wrong to Bedazzle a Birkin.
Hoping like crazy that is a fake Birkin.
ReplyDeleteYuck! I agree!

This looks tacky in more ways than one!
ReplyDeleteUgh, no kidding.
ReplyDeleteThat is dead unattractive.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if its a fake Birkin.
ReplyDeleteThe horror, the horror!!!

ReplyDeleteWaste of a good Birkin.
ReplyDeleteI thought at first it was gum wrappers.
ReplyDeleteI would not have recognized this to be a fake or what. Maybe it is just some old bag all worn out, and someone just got a crazy idea.

ReplyDeleteOh, &%$#!
ReplyDeleteI'd call you stylish and the bedazzled Birkin tacky! It surely must be fake.
ReplyDeleteDear Old Fashioned,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you completely. Do you think it was real?
Gosh this is just missing the point and ruining the elegance! how awful... you are not old-fashioned at all! x

ReplyDeleteHello, this post made me laugh out loud!

I am praying this is a fake. Otherwise my heart just leaped up in my throat (or was that something else from disgust?).
ReplyDeleteNot for me, either.....Have a wonderful weekend, xv.
ReplyDeleteYipes, that's over the top.
ReplyDeleteI hope it is a fake. It looks terrible!
