Lately, I have been obsessing over exotic leathers. They can really make a regular designer handbag look that much more amazing. The Dior "Babe Python" Frame Bag recently caught my eye. It's simply a cute evening bad, that is dressed up in this gorgeous python skin. I can totally envision wearing a gold, silver, or black dress with this bag. This is definitely the type of bag that no matter what you wear, it pops out at you.
What I love most about this bag is that it comes with a detachable coin purse that matches the bag. I think that it so cute that not only do you get this stunning bag but you get a little cute accessory to go with your purchase. Face it, it's the least they can do for the amount of money you pay for an exotic bag.
I currently do not own any snakeskin bag's. I was once told at a Michael Kors store that snakeskin is very hard to maintain because it starts flaking after a while. Genuine snakeskin bags are always in the thousand's range, and for them to flake after a while does sounds pretty awful after all the money you invest in them. They are gorgeous bags, but if a bag isn't going to last as long as a regular leather bag is it really worth it? Is all the beauty and high maintenance of a bag make it really worth all those thousands you put into it? I definitely don't think so.
The Dior "Babe Python" Frame Bag can be purchased at Saks Fifth Avenue for $6,550. This bag is beautiful, but it's not worth the price. I want to be able to carry a bag around whenever I want. If I have to be extra careful with a bag, and not carry it around much because of it being so high maintenance it's not worth the high price to me then. Overall though, this bag is stunning.
This is gorgeous, but not for everyday wear. I have a small python pouch from Chloe and after carrying it around for 3 months, I can see some wear already on it. I can't do items that has to be handled with kid gloves too. I mean I don't bash my bag around but having to baby it all the time, it's really exhausting. Besides I already have DH and DS for that
