I posted this a reply in one thread but thought of creating a new thread to see what you guys think about this brand.

I love Great by Sandie. My sister told me about it when she discovered it in Paris, France. http://www.ShopBop.com/great-sandie/...|S||3303056278

What do you guys think about this brand? it's a french designer that created this new line of bags. I love the simplicity and no crazy hardware...it's simple yet very elegant

Too expensive - I've learned not to pay over 300 for an "emerging" designer. I have been burned too many times by poor quality. Other than that, they look okay, but nothing strikes me as being special or different.

thanks MissLola for your reply. At first, nothing striked me either but I have two of my favorites whihc are the ilana and Ital . Lafayette has better pictures though If you look closer to the quality of the bag and how it's made, it's really cute. Shopcoclico didnt take nice pictures of the bags.

I like the style even though it reminds me very muh of Gryson bags but to decide if I love it I would need to see in real life.

some of the bags are not bad...the Ilana reminds me of a blaenciaga bag.

I like them. They have a nice vintage look.

I agree with the others who've said they look like other bags. They look a bit too 'inspired'/'copied' for me.

The Ital reminds me of the Moni Moni Splendor...
