The Pauric Sweeney Patent Leather Bag
Ok I admit it patent leather isn’t always so bad, but who are we kidding the case of this hideous excuse for a handbag…barf bag is more like it!
Pauric Sweeney is probably laughing on his private jet right now. Why? Well because he’s selling a cheap-looking patent leather and metallic 80’s rip off for $1,400 dollars by the thousands.
This bag isn’t fashionable – rather it looks like something I’d by at a thrift store to add to my flash dance Halloween costume. This one I’ve chosen comes in black, but it’s also available in magenta metallic patent leather – now that would match perfectly with my leg warmers and hair glitter!
How I know that this is joke is that both the black and magenta versions have brown leather handles. Come on who are we kidding here. I’d like to know where and what exactly all of you haute couture princesses would wear with this utter disaster? Maybe we should ask the designer Pauric Sweeney, oh no wait I can still here him laughing.
Sure you’d get a lot of attention from this bag, but really what would people be saying…”um that’s an interesting bag” through clenched teeth and a gag reflex. As I’ve said sure you’ll be a standout with this Pauric Sweeney patent leather purse dangling from your arm…at least the bag looks water proof, so the watery overlay will protect your bag from spewing passersby.
There’s vampy and pure cheese and this Pauric Sweeney is the later - available for $1,410 at Net-a-Porter.com.
This black or bronze patent leather tote from Necessary Objects London has a nice slouchy envelope shape and it’s just $35.89 at Endless.com.
I wouldn’t dare say it was love at first sight of this Sydney Love Patent Small Soft Tote, however at $54 at ebags.com; it’s a heck of a lot cheaper and more stylish then the Sweeney “design”.
