Burberry Gems Satin Wristlet

Burberry Gems Satin Wristlet

Burberry, I’m absolutely applauding at my computer, here. You’ve finally broken the mold and created something that’s absolutely stunning! When I was a young girl in high school, one of my favorite things to do was to shop for the prom. Getting “the” dress was the highlight of it all, but I also loved to peruse the hundreds of candy-colored clutches on display to complete your look. I used to pick the shiniest, sparkliest clutch I could – so much so that now my closet at my parents’ house is full of old costume clutch handbags. The point is, this Gems Satin Wristlet by Burberry is exactly the sort of purse I would have chosen for my senior prom. That was the year of the Red Dress. I chose a silver clutch, but this would have done even better to set my outfit’s level to fabulous.

Burberry Shoulder Hobo

This is a hobo? Really? The last time I checked, hobo bags were, you know, a little more relaxed than this. Just when I thought Burberry was finally loosening up, they’ve gone back to their uptight plaid design. Now, don’t get me wrong – it’s not that I don’t appreciate the style of this bag and Burberry itself, but this is just not a hobo! Where’s the slouch? Where’s the soft fabric or leather? Not in this bag.

You know, it’s really nice to see Burberry breaking out of the stiff country-club-and-yacht design rut that they seemed to be in. It’s not that I hated Burberry handbags; rather, I just hated the same stiff plaid and two strap design. Now, the design company’s got their priorities straight – just look at this beautiful wine-colored quilted leather creation. It’s got an open top with a satin interior lining and beautiful polished nickel hardware.

Burberry Metallic Mesh Leather Shopper

It’s about time we finally saw some Burberry with an edge. Let’s face it, the traditional Burberry design makes me think of tennis matches and country club soirees – it definitely doesn’t reek of fun or excitement. Most purses from Burberry have been about as out of the box as their signature black, white, tan and burgundy rigid plaid. And plaid is about just as exciting as a game of cricket. It just seems stuffy and dry to me.

However suddenly out of nowhere comes this electrifying black mesh Burberry metallic leather shopper. Did you hear that “MESH”! What kind of tennis going cricket player wears mesh? One who has a great sense of style – that’s who!
