PurpleAmanda · #1 (**permalink**) 11-27-2007, 02:29 PM

Just wanted to get everyones opinions on this bag good AND bad haha. It's prettty pricey, it's the Wilm from Le Petitpas - Designer fashion limited edition handbags and purses. , but I havn't seen her in awhile and I know she loves this style. (and the color is perfect for xmas)

But what do you guys think about it? It's much more red looking in person than my camera gives off haha, wish I could post the pics from the website.

Thankss!

well, i have to say that the red color definitely exudes sexiness. plus, its metallic shine is perfect for the bright and cheery holidays coming. i personally think that the bag as well is just the right size to hold whatever your sister will want to bring along. just the right purse for a girl who wants to bring many stuff like make-up, etc.

I like it. I'm assuming you know your sister pretty well, so I bet she'll love it too.

It's more my camera being pretty much crap. It's actually not the glossy leather. If you went to the website Le Petitpas - Designer fashion limited edition handbags and purses. they have better pictures of what it looks like in person. Thanks for your feedback though!

wat did your sister say about the bag amanda?

If she walks in a room with this on her arm it will do two things, primarily:
1. It will attract attention immediately
2. It will "detract" from anything else that she's wearing because the bag is so obvious and gorgeous.
So, if she's looking for attention, you've given her a nice gift. If, however, she wants to show off her clothing, take another bag.
If she likes the bright colors, have you ever considered getting her an Anuschka? Some say that the handpainted style is very beautiful and generally goes with more "outdoorsy" fashions like jeans, etc. while, at the same time, drawing attention to the holder. I guess it's just a matter of taste.

She LOVEDDD it. I was trying to figure out what kind of presentation to wrap it in for Christmas, but decided to just stick with what it was shipped in. It comes in this fancy black box, and when you open it up it was filled with black and red rose petals with a poetic info card.

It was very nice.

I catch her goin on the website sometimes to see when news ones come out haha.

It isss a very nice bag, but I wouldn't say it would be impossible to grab attention to your clothes with it. It's not hundreds of different colors or anything, it's only red so I can picture some outfits where it is a compliment also. Thanks for your input with the other site though!
