Women's Accessories


DESCRIPTION

hey! I found this article in the New York Times about the new "it bag" from ThursdayFriday. The tote features a large printed picture of the infamous Berkin bag on the front, back and sides of the tote. The bag is 100% cotton canvas and sells at a retail price of $35.00. i thought it was an interesting way in which the company is playing against the Berkin bag, as stated in the article the purpose of the tote is "ultimately an anti-status symbol."

  1. Crystal, I actually read about this tote bag as well. I think that the way the bag was made was a unique concept. I agree with the fact that you said it's playing against the Berkin bag and that it's an anti-status symbol. Great post!

  3. I love this bag! Not only is it on trend because of the Berkin Bag image, but also because it is eco and animal friendly being made from 100% cotton rather than leather. And the price makes it affordable for those of us who can't afford the real thing.
