Kate Spade Sherwood Owl Handbag

There’s another designer with a passion for owl critters on their designs. Upon viewing the Sherwood Owl Handbag by Kate Spade, it took me by surprise. What an unattractive handbag Spade created this season. I’ve seen critter accessories, and most are cute with head turning designs, but this top handle tote will turn heads in a not-so-great way.
The strong details and mixture of different textured leathers is admirable, but I wouldn’t want to carry around a tote sporting a vicious looking owl on it. It starts with those evil yellow eyes, and continues with that sharp metal beak. Grommets at each feather and those tiny-clawed owl feet at the base give me the creeps. Why so gloomy and serious, not cute and cuddly? We may never know. At least I’ll be passing by this piece at my local shops with no considerations for it at all.
Although its not my cup of tea, it might be the perfect find for the lady who can’t get enough animal prints on her handbags and clothing, and we all know somebody like that!
This funky Kate Spade tote can be purchased through: Saks Fifth Avenue for $425.
More reasons to shop at SAKS:
• Spend $150+ and receive a year’s subscription of Harpers Bazaar with code: BAZAAR
• Free shipping on orders of $250+ with code: FALLSHIP9

Re: Kate Spade Sherwood Owl Handbag
I think it's cute, perfect for the season. It kind of reminds me of something MJ would do but it has a more feminine/mature look.
If love is the answer, what is the question?

Re: Kate Spade Sherwood Owl Handbag
That bag is hilarious, and not in a good way. It totally creeps me out as well.
I agree with everything you wrote in this post Viva. Your description is fabulous.

Three words: Macrame Wall Hanging
My parents had one from the 70s hanging in our basement when I was a kid. It was in the shape of an owl.

Re: Kate Spade Sherwood Owl Handbag
Viva, you're right, it might be different if it was cute instead of scary looking.
Yes, it's true that IRL it might be way better but I agree with FedUp, I'd feel kinda silly carrying this bag around."For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak only words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone." ~ Audrey Hepburn
