Kate Spade Olivia Velvet and Gold Evening Bag

Kate Spade Olivia Velvet and Gold Evening Bag

8.24.2005 | by Megs | under: Evening Bags , Kate Spade Bags

Kate Spade Olivia Velvet and Gold Evening BagBy the looks of the new fabrics coming out, it is evident that fall/winter 2005 is on its way. It seems like only yesterday I was looking forward to summer. Well summer is here and almost over (my 2 month vacation is reaching its half way point- dang). But the new handbags are making their way out- which we have all noticed- and it has me quite excited. Realizing that I haven’t featured enough evening bags, I wanted to find a fun one for the upcoming season. I got it! The Kate Spade Olivia Velvet and Gold Evening Bag intertwines a bright and bold color of summer with a fabric of fall/winter - velvet. I consider this bag quite bold for Kate Spade (although the designer has been making more statements lately than the older more plain bags). Made of pink gathered velvet and gold hardware, this bag is sure to brighten up any outfit. There is also a gold chain which you could opt not to use and simply carry the bag as a clutch or you could use it as a strap. The inside of the bag contains a small pocket and is lined in a taupe colored satin. This bag could make your outfit a hit for $335 through Net-A-Porter.

*Check out this posh and fun dress Net-A-Porter models the clutch off with! The dress is made by Anna Sui and will be available soon for those of you who can pull a number like that off! :-)

I think I’d have to feel the bag, and see someone carrying it before I gave my final judgement. Because right now, I’m not loving it too much. But I’ll reserve my opinion. The color is totally hot though!

It’s cute, but I if you’re into that style you can get the Hobo International Hayward Clutch for much cheaper - they sell them on ebay all the time for under $100.

i like the bag but i think its overshadowed by the dress they advertise it with. IMHO.

Lose the chain, it’s my favorite color. The ‘posh fun’ dress we are directed to is also a loser, in my opinion. The luscious shade of raspberry will enliven the most staid attaire.
