Michael Kors Chain Shoulder Bag

Megs · Oct 1st, 2007, 09:59 AM

Michael Kors is able to offer us a designer handbag for a more friendly price tag. Not quite under the $1000 mark, the Michael Kors Chain Shoulder Bag sports cream leather accented with gold hardware. Some days I begin to question these handbags that I love, watching the price tags sky rocket. Is the price really worth it? Are we getting what we pay for? Even with this handbag, sure, it is cute and perfect for that light colored bag. But the tag is still hefty, considering all of the other expenses in life. The chain detailing along with the long zipper pulls are cute. I suppose what I am saying is that I like this bag, but I would not buy it. At Net A Porter for $1095.

this is a nice looking bag but I'm in agreement on the price tag. I would pay $695.00 for it but not $1095.00.

I agree Megs, I like it too! But I wouldn't buy because I don't like it enough to pay 1000+ for it.

This bag looks like it's the love child of the YSL Muse and the Marc Jacobs Deborah. I like it, but I'm not paying $1100 + tax for Michael Kors!

It's nice, but ITA with everyone above that it doesn't seem worth more than $600 or so. The Michael Kors brand really doesn't have the cachet to command that price IMO.

It's nice, but anonynomous. The zipper reminds me of Louis Vuitton. O.o

It's a really nice bag.

Love the bag but am in total agreement regarding the price. I think $795 is the highest I would go for a Michael Kors like that, especially since you can get beautiful Marc Jacobs Collection bags for $895. Just my humble opinion.

I agree! I definitely love the bag, but I don't associate Michael Kors with bags that expensive.

It's gorgeous. But I agree on the price. But then again I'm cheap to begin with.

i could never warm up to michael kors. it's like he takes the latest styles and makes them generic and pedestrian.

It is a really nice bag.

It has a bit more imagination than some of his other bags. I am in agreement that I would not pay $1000+ for it.
