Chloe Shelby Tote

This Shelby is a close sibling to the Edith from 3 years ago (wow, has it been that long?) but it did not make me jump up the way the Edith did when I first saw it. The Edith had a school girl charm that I loved and this is really briefcase-y.  The blue is definitely much better than the brown but still the long brass plaque on the top and those double straps does something to make this bag seem so dowdy.  Something about this is making it look very forced, like it is trying too hard to be different and edgy.  Obviously, Chloe is suffering without a clear direction from a real designer and the mosaic rehashing of old designs is boring.  I can still see a young hip chick rock out with a bohemian jeans and slouchy sweater look but seriously, if you’re that cool, you will make anything look good.  For me, it is a thumbs down.  The Chloe Shelby Tote at Luisa Via Roma for $1400.  (Jump to see the train wreck who has this bag!)

  1. i dunno, i kind of like it! but i’ve been big on unisex bags and lots of straps lately. i can see how it’s not for everyone, it’s definitely not “cute” but i think it’s stylish. and i looove that shade of blue.

    and… i normally wouldn’t do this, but i have to defend kim there! even though everything she stands for in terms of fame-whoring is rather despicable, she’s not a trainwreck compared to.. do you need me to name?! as hard as i try, even my negative bias doesn’t stop me from recognizing her as stunning. if nothing else she’s good tabloid photo eye candy (and her fashion sense has been a lot better lately.)

  2. Kim is not a train wreck! She has a strong suppoprt system, a steady boyfriend, and family that loves her. She’s not on drugs or doing crazy things like Britney Spears was last year or like Lindsay Lohan. I’d consider them train wrecks not Kim. She has a business and she doesn’t mess over her money. I don’t think that that comment was funny!

  3. The bag is defintely unappealing. Kim is gorgeous and it is refreshing to see a woman who has great curves instead of these celebrities who starve themselves and make all of us normal-sized women feel like blimps in comparison…

  5. how dare you call kim kardashian a “train wreck”. I myself am also an armenian women and to see another women like myself being name called in these day and age is absolutely disgusting. i think you should post an apology because that was not necessary. We should praise women and support each other not put each other done
