Halloween is the ugliest holiday. There is no need to decorate your house with spider webs and dead people, it is absolutely disgusting. I saw Martha Stewart today making glitter bones and skulls and she was like, "Isn't this pretty?". Uhhhh, NO!! I don't care if you encrust diamonds on bones and skulls, it will be a waste of diamonds and most definitely not pretty! And that is how I feel about this clutch. I know the Thomas Wylde line is all about the skulls but a giant bad Halloween decorative skull on a clutch is totally uncute and not uncute in a "cool" way either, it is just bad. This skull is totally scary looking and combined with the cracked distressed bronze leather, it just creeps me out. And this is not a small clutch, it is 12.5" x 10" so that skull is at least 2 inches! I guess it is very pirate themed which is popular with the kids, but I don't know any grown woman who would think this is cute or fashionable. But Happy Halloween everyone! At Net a Porter for $1495.
I agree! this is so NOT cute! I like cute little scarecrows and pumpkins for halloween but not skull and bones!!!
martha stewart is an idiot.
You wuss, Kelly! :P Something about the shape and embellishment of the skull reminds me more of the Mexican festival of death/traditional death masks than captain jack sparrow and unoriginally tattoed bikers - therefore, I like it. In fact, if skulls weren't a ridiculous trend with the 'kids' nowadays, I'd buy it. But then, I'm still a young twentysomething and hardly a grown woman!!
ooh, just read the dimensions - ok, maybe not. but if it were, say, half that size - cute as!
Ewwww, I hate it--it's sick.
hmm... i wouldn't want to have anything to do with skulls and anything morbid either. perhaps our culture does not take kindly to that stuff because those things are like a curse or a jinx.
yuck, barf, poopy!!!
AMEN!!! I never understood the appeal of bones and skulls at all. And as for Halloween, when i was a little girl i was always a rincess or a butterfly fairy princess or the like. There's enough ugliness in the world already. No need to add to it.
There's nothing ugly or immature about skulls! It's perfectly natural and quite a dramatic symbol. I prefer to have something symbolizing a human skull on my bag than a ridiculous rather ugly croc skin.
No one who loves skins on bags can say that a metal skull is ugly and morbid.
The color's sick in a good way, but the skull looks as though it's about to become animate and start singing,"yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me." He needs an eye patch.
Love it and obsessed w/ Mcqueen
even though I loathed skulls because of hot topic b4
you've got to be kidding. this bag is gorgeous.
my friend has this clutch, its amazing it mixes classic chique with a little tongue and cheek and on track goth glamour!! You can always point it out and goes with practically anyhting!!! I love it. Waiting for her to get bored of it !!
