Symbolic recycled material fuses with fashion in these Claire Vivier handbags that I saw this morning:
here is my quicklist editorial, dash marked…of course. And before I get into the list, I would like to point out that I am ALL about eco-chic fashion.
Things that rock about this bag:
- It’s so symbolic, come on now, a MONEY bag? That’s right. That’s pretty damn hardcore.
- It’s recycled, from imperfect materials (read: heavily discounted)
- It’s remade in America
- It’s just all around cool
Things that really REALLY suck about the bag:
Um…it’s ALREADY MADE. Why on earth do you feel the need to charge $159 for this bag?? I feel like businesses like yours are the reason why we continue to cycle into recession. Mind you, it’s merely the way I feel. I am by no means a certified economist, but I feel that if the item is already made, already recycled, and minimally embellished, it should be priced accordingly.
So there you have it. Alot of things really rock about the bag, but the thing that sucks is almost offensive to me as a consumer and so I will resort to Etsy.com to find one that is probably priced under $20. I really cannot stand when retailers attempt to exploit consumers.
If there was some sort of artwork or embellishment of a sort, I a may feel differently. That’s all.
