Sparkle all year long in the palladium metallic Elaphe by JIMMY CHOO! I will never tire of metallic or exotic so this is a classic in my book. It's all about buying wisely right now my friends, we need choose investments pieces that will last beyond the current season.
The distressed python will patina beautifully and you'll find yourself using this through spring and summer. The delicate chain adds just the right touch of contrast and balances the gold bar closure. Toned down with the black front flap which makes it daytime ready as well but tuck the chain in at night and you're ready to rock with a fabulous clutch. Who can't use a bag for day, for night, for always? Especially when lunches sometimes run into cocktail hour to dinner to late night (I had an 8 hour lunch with Heidi the other day, I could have used this bag when it turned dark outside!)
The metallic snakeskin Elaphe retails for $2,195 but for you budget minded frugal snobs, there is a gold leather version on Jimmychoo.com for $1,450. I'd pony up the extra $600 for the exotic though, but that's just me. Have a good weekend all!

Hi Tina just FYI that is not python it looks like either cobra or water snake....:)
yes, you are right! i knew the flap was snake but didn't confirm the metallic part until now. thanks!!
gorgeous bag, python or snake!
I bought this bag in eel last year. It is a fabulous bag!!
oh I remember the eel! Love this finish on the snake
I think the black/gold flap ruins the delicate aesthetic of the snakeskin and chain, but that's just me.
If I remember correctly, the elaphe is a type of snake I think.
