You can spot a Balenciaga from miles away - and I’m beginning to think that’s not such a great thing, after all. Though the oft-carried motorcycle bags will probably always hold some sort of power over fashionistas worldwide, the line’s other bags are less worthy of the same type of adoration. The Matelasse Mini Purse, for example, is downright dull, lacking originality (as it would, since it’s just a small version of the original - and it also channels a bit of the Quilted Arena Bag’s design) and not making much of a statement, even with a vast color selection to choose from. Available for $1285 at Diabro.
