Default Balenciaga Lune Tote


I think that one of my favorite things about Bluefly is that their selection is so vast and random. They carry brands that are rarely found elsewhere on the Internet and bags that may not have made it onto the radar of the casual aficionado, in addition to lots of reliable favorites. A perfect example of the breadth of their available bags is the Balenciaga Lune Tote. As one of their rarely-noticed non-motorcycle bags, the Lune may have been overlooked by many, but I think that anyone who appreciates a statement bag should give it some serious consideration. It’s a bicolor, multi-textured beauty made of soft denim-colored goat leather and smooth, slick black calfskin with enough buckles, straps, and trim to keep anyone entertained. It’s big enough to handle all of its accoutrement, though, and the Balenciaga bag designers stopped just before it got overdone. The more I look at it, the more I wonder why we never saw Victoria Beckham carrying the Lune - it kind of looks like something she would like, doesn’t it? Buy through Bluefly for $2060.

One look and I think "hmmm, maybe" , then I look again, and think "Ewwww".
So I think not.
And VB can get away with ANYTHING....

I love Balenciaga with all my heart, but this is the most unattractive bag I ever seen from their collection, thus far. It's hideous. Something a 60+ year old elderly woman would carry. What were they thinking?

I would not insult ladies of any age with this bag.

I'm a big fan of Lune for a very long time. It's classy and elegant. I can easily picture Victoria wearing one of these inestead of Hermes and it would totally fit her. Gorgeous!
