Left: Michael Kors bag Right: An actual saddle bag
I can always count on Michael Kors' bags to give me a good laugh. If I'm in a bad mood or feeling a little down, I go right to a Kors bags and I know the chuckles will be inevitable. OK, why would you ever buy this bag when you can get it at the local feed store? Or if you want a little more edge, the motorcycle superstore. Not only are the fringes totally scary but the gold rivets add to the horror. Ohh, Michael would be so pissed right now if he read this! But then again, he did see this bag prior to production so you have to assume he wasn't scared by it then so he shouldn't be mad about it now. At Net a Porter for $1395. Yes, $1395, we know, it's ridiculous.
The one on the right looks like a balleen whale. (Is it just me or do a lot of the current bags seem to have profligate amounts of studs?)
I was in Saks today and I have to say that Michael's bags confuse me. They look so cheap! He doesn't put all of that crap on his clothing so I'm not sure why it is on his bags. Blech. Don't you know he would crucify a Project Runway designer for showing such garbage!
Yuck.
For shame.
It must be the Sacagawea bag in honor of the Lewis and Clark bicentennial. I was dropping off a donation at the Goodwill today and saw one similar but red. It was $7. I had one of my most regrettable shopping blackouts at Geoffrey a few years back. I spent way too much on a Michael Kors skirt and blouse to wear to the Vogue Christmas Party, then I didn't go. I shall not pay into his coffers again. You've busted him!
