anyabowery.jpgI love how the wicker weaving on Anya Hindmarch's Bowery bag is made to look like studs! Upon closer inspection you'll see it's merely the placement of the metallic weave. This is a fabulous choice for our 'mature' snobs who love the look of rock and roll studs but feel it is not appropriate for their age. I previewed this at the showroom over Fashion Week and it is even better in person because you can not get the wonderful details from a photo. Anya loves being organized and of course this bag has her usual hidden and zippered interior pockets and key clip. Slightly oversized at 16" wide, it slouches just enough when you carry it so that it doesn't overwhelm. If you are petite and love the look of big bags, make sure it has short shoulder straps like this bag, nothing worse than a giant bag with long straps hanging down to a girl's knees!

    Ok, this bag has a more mature look than the previous YSL ( sigh). But, it doesn´t have a WOW effect ( sigh).

    Great idea

  • On the fence about ths. kind of cool but at the same time maybe too mature?

  • I am not usually an anya fan but I really like this bag! Wonder if it will be available at Shopbop? You can rack up some serious cash back through
    Ebates with that price tag!

  • It reminds me a bit of the YSL Muse II. I can't say that I'm crazy about it; though the metallic weave is interesting. :)

  • I think this bag is quite clever. I actually prefer it to most "studded" bags I've seen. One might assume that it has a "mature" look to it, but I disagree- I think the uniqueness makes it young. I'm 24 and I would use it anytime!
