When I covered the Gucci Joy Boston Bag with Snowman and Elephant Print, the reaction was mixed (except on Facebook where most everyone disliked the bag strongly). But not me. I loved this bag from the moment I first saw it. You see, I recently took a look into my handbag collection and realized I was lacking playful and whimsical designs. My collection is overflowing with great leather bags, but I not only wanted but felt that I needed to add some bags that are meant to be taken lightly and meant to be fun. I found it in the Marc Jacobs Fluorescent Tweed Bag and I have found it in this Gucci Bag.
You know who else is drawn to it? Elle MacPherson.
I must admit, I have had Elle MacPherson envy for years. She somehow pairs gorgeous with casual so well that it makes me mad. And in her all dark ensemble, Elle added a playful touch with the Gucci Joy Boston Bag with Snowman and Elephant Print.
I told you all I was going to order this bag, and I did. It arrived last week and Vlad and I plan on doing a photo shoot with it coming up soon. In person, it is great! This bag is not meant to be taken super seriously, rather it is all in jest (while also being for a good cause). I am looking forward to pairing it with a crisp white top and summer khaki pants! Buy through Gucci online for $695.
There should be that one bag that you can take likely, as fun and playful. And, this bag has done exactly that, adding style with a playful character. This bag is cute.
I`d love to love the bag, but I cannot.
I don’t know… it’s kinda got that whole “diaper bag” thing going on.
I would have to pass on this.
Agreed! The first thing I thought when I saw it was “Diaper bag – YUCK”
I really liked this bag too. It is such a crazy design, it appeals to me !
I think it’s fun. Classic style with cute motif!
Not feeling this one!!
Not for me, I prefer my LV Speedy!!!
couldn’t find it on the website – are they all gone? it’s very cute!
Weird, it might be gone though! I’ll ask and see 🙂
adorable, but couldn’t find it on the website.
chanle bags
I like it that the Elephants have different poses. They did not just repeat one Elephant motive in different angles.
So, I understand you Megs, this handbag is classy, but fun. I am looking forward to the photos.
I’d absolutely love the bag if it didn’t have the snowmen on it. For some reason, they bother me. But I do like the whimsical element it lends to an outfit.
This bag is really cute in person!
Megs now you know you need to stop! I could easily see this on the shelves @ Wal Mart & still can even w/ the Gucci label! lol This has 2 b 1 big joke from the retailers who sell us crazy stuf @ astronomical prices just 2 c who will take the bait & buy it becuz of the name! tht zoo print is hideous! I’m surprised bcuz I usually alwys agree w/ u but this rite here I just cn’t co-sign! lol
