MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I'm sure Balenciaga meant well when they created the Holiday City Bag, I mean you can not fault one's generous spirit of the holidays (or can you?)!  But as a bag consumer, I'm incredibly offended that anyone would think this is appropriate to use at any time, even over the holidays (thank god I have not seen any reindeer sweaters this year).  At the risk of being a total bitch, I'm thinking this is what happened at the design meeting at the House of Balenciaga when this bag was conceived.  Nicolas G: "Zee world is tired of zee city bag, but we must continue zee tradition!".  Accessories designer one: "Maybee we make a bag zat zee stupid Americains will love, zay lovee zee Christmas and zee 4th of July!"  Nicolas G: "Zat is brilliant!  Make zee colors so zat we can sell it for zee year, not just one season."  Accessories designer 2: "Yes yes, we do it in zee red and zee green for zee Christmas and add zee bleu so zay can also use for zee Independence Day!" 

Balenciaga Holiday City bag here for $1,395.
