Show your novelty bags, and your opinions!

I’ve dipped my toes into the novelty bag genre, with a Kate Spade elephant wicker and a Wicker Darling flamingo which is on its way! I’m contemplating getting this Vendula bag, a brand which I’ve read about here and there on this forum! What do you think about it - should I get it?

Despite my recent obsession, I still own ‘regulars’, eg Prada tote, Dior vintage saddle, various Tory Burches…. I suppose the one issue with novelty bags is that I’d usually have wear a very plain outfit for it to work, which I don’t have many of! Would it be more important to curate a classic wardrobe in that case….!!

What are your thoughts on novelty bags? Cute and fun, or tacky? For those owning premium brands, such as LV or Chanel or Hermes, do you wear novelty bags or do they now take a back seat? If you have one, care to show them off?

It's a very cute fun bag that I would enjoy looking at but I don't think I would wear it

I had never heard of this brand or seen this style before so I searched online; unfortunately the website didn't load correctly for me but I did find images on google. And I must say that I'm kind of tempted now to just buy and enjoy looking at it for the intricate details of the scenes.
My kids would love it for their imaginary games too lol.
Gotta stop reading these posts about intriguing new to me brands!

While I love novelty bags, I have a tendency to go overboard and want to buy bag after bag because the first one brings so much joy, so I try to stick with ones where the bag's theme resonates with me beyond being quirky where I like the design the most.

What novelty bags do you like and have?

Mostly nerd stuff (Vuitton galaxy pouch, bag with a computer print, wallet from the Coach x PACMAN collection) and the micros as my collection veers far beyond trend into novelty territory at this point.

I love dolce and gabbana novelty bags in particular!! I’ve owned multiple novelty type bags from different brands over the years. But I always find them hard to style with my neutral but sometimes colorful printed wardrobe depending on the time of year. I often tire of them and sell them. But I love to look at them

I think novelty bags are great though I can't say I buy them. My everyday style is not very camp but i'd love such a bag as a conversation piece one day.

I like the JW Anderson cap bag but haven't bitten the bullet!
