I don’t even really know how to begin. I am bringing you a Christian Louboutin handbag that isn’t a clutch? I think this is a first. While there are times I write about handbags for no reason other than shock or surprise; this time, being surprised is a good thing. I am so pleased with the Christian Louboutin Piercing Softy Hobo I almost don’t know where to start. The soft “makeup” colored leather is a shade that can go with so many outfits during so many different seasons. The way the leather is gathered as well as the pleating and vertical welts draw the eye to the detailing that went into designing and crafting the bag. And of course, as you might be able to tell, this is a bag that would be perfect to use during the day. Yet at the same time, I could see myself carrying this during the evening as well. If you aren’t a fan of the color, fear not, the handbag comes in black as well. If you ever doubted that this was truly a Louboutin handbag, open it up and you will find the signature bright silk satin lining. Gorgeous. And since you are pretty much sure to drop a pretty penny or two on a Louboutin, maybe a larger bag like this one can be more justifiable than one of the clutches. Buy through Saks for $1895.

I must need to see this IRL because I'm really bored.
The middle part reminds me of the LV Tivoli.

I don't know what to think about it. On one hand it's cute, but on the other very boring.

Odalysb2006 · Mar 1st, 2009, 09:33 AM

I like the color. . . but it really doesn't do anything for me. . .
For the price, I would get something else. . . but that's just me.

gacats · Mar 1st, 2009, 11:25 AM

I like the color too, but there's really no wow factor here.

Liberté · Mar 1st, 2009, 11:50 AM

It's not bad, but there's really nothing that catches the eye.

I think he should stick to shoes, he excells in that and the thing that makes us gasp for joy at a pair of Loubie shoes just isn't present in the clutches/bags.

bannYlein · Mar 2nd, 2009, 06:23 AM

Hummm... yes you are right.. no wow-factor - just humm

Chi town Chanel · Mar 2nd, 2009, 09:21 AM

I agree. CL should stick to shoes.

AustinRose · Mar 3rd, 2009, 09:34 PM

I would never guess this was a bag designed by CL - looks very casual and slouchy.

I like the bag - just would never think it was a Louboutin. Expecting something more edgy-chic I think

Lady Rothschild · Mar 4th, 2009, 11:18 AM

I would never have guessed this was designed by CL. It could pass for an off-the-shelf bag.

edanna · Mar 8th, 2009, 05:09 AM

I'll gladly buy this bag! I love it. But I HATE HATE HATE the price tag. Come on, 1.8K for that bag? Overpriced.

ci7h2ino4 · Jun 11th, 2009, 10:26 PM

i like this. it's on sale at Saks. pretty simple.

sugga051982 · Jun 19th, 2009, 05:50 PM

This purse is not eye catching at all. Looks like one my grandmother has.

ssc0619 · Jun 28th, 2009, 11:01 PM

I am in the minority on this one, but I like it. I would have known right away from the lines that it is a CL.
