IMO, I don't like this bag.

WTF!!!!! I swear it's exactly the same look as the cheap bags in Chinatown, literally. Like Bal designers are running out of ideas & just copied the Chinatown patchwork design. What's the difference? $$$$$ I bet, this is double the price of the regular line. It's a shame...

Tried on today...more attractive IRL than in pics...but shoulder straps too short for true shoulder carry unless one is tres petite... Prefer "traditional"...

i don't like its butt. I mean that olive large piece on the bottom. Why don't they have the bottom in the same color as the handles?

I start to think this looks like beggar's bag.

I like the style, not the patchy thing.

my thoughts exactly! :d

I agree with member 1 ,this collection is not cute.

I really dislike this bag. I saw it at the Bal boutique and it really wasn't interesting. You think they're taking away all the old stock from Bal stores in the US to cut them up and create more of these bags?

hope they don't really do that!

sorry, this is not my cup of tea.

It reminds me my granny's blanket. I love her blanket very much but not for my bag.

well obviously there's no hope for me b/c i love it! first saw it in the Bal brochure, i think it looks nicer in the pix i was sent, going to see it irl at the weekend.

not so keen on the bigger ~ *get seen in the dark* version tho

i saw this @ NM SF yesterday.....not a big fan

I saw the one with the darker colors at Bergdorf's this past weekend and I don't like the patchwork or even the colors they chose. I do like the shape of the bag though the handles are too short I think. If I recall correctly, the cost was in the $2,000 range.

***EDIT*** OK so i saw these bags irl today, this is actually the Large Sunday, (£1290) i thought the colours were beautiful (apart from the grey which looked out of place a little), loved the shape, it was just way too big!

so this is the smaller version, (£1270), it's more bucket shaped, which i didn't like, the sides sorta stick out & for me personally, the colour combo a big no no.

Yup, I have to agree, it's not my cup of tea. If I wanted a patchwork bag, I would spend $100 on a Lucky Brand bag.

I was going to say that I saw a Lucky Brand bag that looked very similar to this...

And I really dislike the color combo on the small one. Ah well, to each his/her own.

Oh mine... for a moment, I thought it was a fake design...

 

[BlueKat]

OK. Now, this just looks tacky! Bal is getting pretty desperate with these designs!!

 

[pursemama]

This is a bag that would make me crazy, I would have to REALLY think about my outfit.....what to wear, what not to wear because of all the colors! I don't have the time nor the energy to think that much about what to wear with this bag!

 

[gladrags&bags]

my first impression was that it looked cheap and tacky..
