Jimmy Choo Metallic Ramona

Megs · Aug 9th, 2007, 10:46 AM

It seems to me that the Jimmy Choo handbag itch has been spreading. At first, many tried to say that Jimmy Choo did not make great bags. But now, after the success of the Jimmy Choo Clutch and the Mahala and the Ramona, Jimmy Choo has found a secure spot in the handbag market. A little more bold, the Jimmy Choo Metallic Ramona is a great way to add a little bit of flash without being flashy. The bronze-and-chocolate striped eel tote features gold hardware, eyelets around the top with threaded straps, and double top handles. The outside colors are dark and bold and as you slightly open up to the inside you find a feminine lilac suede trim. Buy via Net A Porter for $3500.

I am confused. Why Jimmy Choo's regular Ramona bags cost $1,850 but this Metallic Ramona would cost double -- $3,500???

^ Maybe because of the eel?

Megs · Aug 9th, 2007, 02:10 PM

Yes, the eel

It is different, but I like it!

Really not a fan. Reminds me of the bags with oversized grommets sold at Forever 21 and Urban Outfitters

It's kinda cute, but not my style. Love all the others JC's though.

I love the shape, but the stripes are not quite doing it for me...

RoseMary · Aug 9th, 2007, 04:30 PM

not a fan...

hmm im not really liking this bag. I think its the stripes.

maxter · Aug 9th, 2007, 05:04 PM

Too much going on with this bag. Take out the striping effect and it would look great!

I agree. I found it very unappealing. And I don't really find the idea of eel very appealing either.

hmm..not a fan...i would rather eat eel than wear it anyway...mmm sushi...

Very glam- it'd be a nice 80's accent to an all-black ensemble. Pretty big pricetag for a not-too-practical piece though.
