Miu Miu's much hyped ads featuring Lindsay Lohan and the metallic patchwork bag are now available at My Theresa. This is not something I would ever be caught dead carrying but I can certainly see the appeal to young trendoids who like the flashy sensibilities of this ultra shiny bag. It's also way too big for my taste, 46cm x 30cm is roughly 18 inches wide and a foot tall. As you can see from the ad, Lindsay and her twin from Parent Trap can easily both fit in the bag and have enough room for a few bottles of vodka. I know I've gushed about metallic bags forever but this one is just not doing it for me, I adore silver, love gold, and like bronze metallic but just not all together in some weird french braid pattern. It's not bad enough for me to hate it either, it's just... blah. So there, my two cents on this ultra trendy bag that's going to be out before Labor Day. This is not a classic and certainly not an investment but it sure will get you noticed!

one of the most beautiful handbags this season that would be rarely found.
I've lost all respect for both labels. Using Lindsay to represent your company repulses me.

I was recently agonizing over a silver tote (very minimalist) versus a silver coffer at Miu Miu. I ended up getting neither bag because the silver tote was too long and wide for my taste and the coffer seemed a little too flashy... If only they could merge the two into one bag!
As I scroll down the window, I thought this is "on the rag." But it's the latest it bag! Oh my lord....Still, like the bagsnob said, there might be some trendy young girls who will love something so flashy like this. Personally, I hate this bag.
Miu Miu is ruined for me this season because of her.
I say the bag in black and would definitely get it.
