Jimmy Choo Keeya Tote

jimmychoo_keeya.jpgjimmychoo_keeya_int.jpg

If white is not for you, metallic silver is what you need for the hot weather. And it does in fact go with more and can get you through the rest of the year. This "slashed" leather adds a modern twist and the lining is stretchy so it will flex with the bag, good thinking! The bow is always a cute detail to make the bag go from ultra fem to serious jimmychoo_lawson_wedge.jpgoffice. The magnetic closure, double outer pockets and compartmentalized interior make this a handy companion you won't need to switch in and out of for weeks on end. They also have the peep toe Lawson wedges ($650) that you absolutely must have!! I have trouble with stilettos, the years of living in cobble stone Boston has left me weary of the ankle hazard, so the wedge and chunky heel trend comforts my heart and body =) The Jimmy Choo Keeya Tote at Saks for $1450 and the brand new Jimmy Choo boutique at Two Rodeo, 310 860 9045 (it is gorgeous and huge, with a great selection of everything Choo!).

hello? you have already reviewed this bag, and you didn't exactly like it as much as you do now. what gives? did you think your faithful readers wouldn't notice?

Bag Snob Tina:

HI Sarah! the last review was by me, Tina :) Wow, you are a faithful reader. that was over a year ago! And yes, Kelly is more enamored by this than I was though I thought it was cute, too. Here is my review from March 2007 http://www.bagsnob.com/2007/03/jimmy_choo_keeya_tote.html

PJH:

Good Morning!

I think I have to disagree with one sentence: "The bow is always a cute detail to make the bag go from ultra fem to serious office." I don't think this could be farther from the truth. How has a bow ever not been feminine?

I personally prefer metallics to white. They don't get as dirty, and let's face it every wardrobe needs a dash o' disco, right? Unfortunately, I don't think this bag photographs very well. I'm sure it's cute, but I think that's it. It's just cute.

jane:

I was just about to comment that I have seen the bag reviewed here already. Tina, did you get the new saba yet?

Irena:

I hope the silver logo is just plain silver and not painted to match the color of the bag. Last year I bought the blue metallic one from Nordstrom and by the time I got home it had chipped, so back the bag went...But I loved and and recently saw in in plain black.

sue:

I saw this bag yesterday, in Boston's Choo store. It is nicer than the photo, however, the metal is a matching color to the pewtery silver. The color is good, since it cuts that oh so bright, high voltage silver. However, the leather is very light, since it's got all the slits, and the bag folds unevenly due to the weight of the metal logo. Cute, but bad design flaw.
