Thread: Burberry Raffia Patchwork Shopper

When I get a new bag, I look forward to breaking it in with wear. I also stay cautious of stains, scratches, and water; I’m pretty sure I’m not alone. I own a particular Coach bag that I used for quite some time a couple of years ago, and being made of white cotton, it was simply a dirt magnet. I ignored the flaws of stains and dirt, but pretty soon, I realized it was time to retire it. Nobody wants to carry a bag that looks beyond used or ancient, but over at the House of Burberry, they obviously have a different outlook.


Meet the Burberry Raffia Shopper. It’s distressed, deconstructed, and made of textured raffia swatches. At first, I thought it was reptile skin swatches, but instead, it appears to be small weaves of leather. I admire the artistic concept of the shopper, but other than that, I won’t be running to any Burberry shop to grab this piece. As a brand new bag it already appears in bad condition, I can only imagine how it would look with age. Ladies what’s your input on this Burberry, do you like this?

For $1,395 you can grab this Burberry via: Nordstroms

To be honest at first when I saw this bag I really didn't like it. It just looked like a dirty weathered bag.. but this line is growing on me. (slowly)


Love the hats though

I like the shape of the bag...but, I agree with Jennifer - it looks dirty & old.

O...M...G...

I'm gonna pass.

I am not a fan of this at all.

Man, that's a lot of money for something that looks like that...it looks kinda worn, and I don't like all the pieces stuck together with all the flappy bits hanging off.
