Default Betsey Johnson Star Wristlet


Betsey Johnson Star Wristlet Purse
Leave it to Betsey Johnson and her creativity to design unusual pieces such as this wristlet. It’s called the star wristlet, and its name is pretty self-explanatory. I’ve seen the funkiest accessories coming from Miss. Betsey, including electric guitars and even Betsey Johnson Lips Wristlets. Awkward stuff, but I can’t deny the fact that they’re fun. I can’t really imagine getting much use out of this piece; then again, it’s not a must-have in my book. I could see myself accessorizing with this piece for a night out in town or to some party where carrying my house (and more) isn’t really necessary. Then again, with 5” x 5” x 2” dimensions, this wristlet is totally useless to me as I wouldn’t be able to cram my own cell phone in there! Too small for my phone and way limited room for my cosmetics means that I won’t be wishing upon this star anytime soon. Plus, the $78 price tag is nowhere near convincing. Hmm… if they were to hit the sales rack, maybe I’d pick one up to have as a coin purse, but other than that, it’s a nay for me. What’s your input on these tiny leather goods? Most importantly, would you wear these? You can find these studded goodies in metallic silver or patent black over at shopbop.com

I agree, it is way to small for me. Also this isn't really something I would carry, although it sure is fun and very Betsey Johnson - ish. I'm sure if B.J. came out with this when I was younger, like highschool or even college, and it hit the sale racks, then maybe, just maybe.

I don't like it. Much too young for me.

I think it is cute but not very practical.

I think it's cute but I know I wouldn't carry it either. Very impractical especially if you can't fit your cellphone, lipstick/gloss and keys in it.

It looks cute but more for a teenager. With this low price, though, maybe it is geared towars the younger crowd.....

I think it's cute. I'd consider buying the black version at a steep discount.

It's cute for younger girls. Way too small for me...
