I can't decide if this is beautiful or just plain gaudy. The Prada Tessuto Pietre Wristlet is pretty much a classy wristlet that would definitely stick out in any crowd due to all the crystals it has featured all over it. My question is though, are the crystals beautiful or just a little too much?

The Prada Tessuto Pietre Wristlet comes in two colors: pink and purple. To me, the crystals make the pink version look a tad bit tacky, but yet on the purple version they look absolutely gorgeous! The crystals are featured all over smooth nylon and has a buckled wrist strap with a three inch drop.

The wristlet has a zip top closure and features the "Prada" signature logo right in the center in the front of the wristlet. It is also made in Italy, but that is of no shock being that Prada is the designer of this wristlet.

The Prada Tessuto Pietre Wristlet can currently be purchased over at Saks Fifth Avenue for $540. Yes, that may seem like a lot for a wristlet but most high end designers do charge quite a bit for their wristlets. Some people, like myself, maybe ask themselves, "Why pay over $500 for a wristlet when I can put that money towards a new handbag?" I couldn't agree anymore, but I must say that the Prada Tessuto Pietre Wristlet is quite the eye catcher for a wristlet.

I think the colors are really pretty, but I'm not really crazy over the gem detailing.

I like this version more.. it's much cheaper too, like $300 @ saks

I'll go with the latter. Blech.

The solid is a bit better but I'm still not impressed.

I love the purple color, but I think the gem's are a little much for me.

It reminds me of a turban adorned with jewels from my great aunts costume jewelry collection!

I really like the plain version without the jewels. I love small pouches to carry inside my bags. They keep me organized!

^^^ LOL! Not a fan of the jems!

I like the plain one & the price tag!

I love the color of the purple wristlet, but I am so not a fan of the crystals.

I like the wristlet Jennifer posted...those crystals are just toooooo much for me. It kind of almost looks like a do-it-yourself craft project. Not my thing.

I like the plain one better. The jewels are not my thing.

I like the plain one a lot. But the stones are too much for me. I feel like I could add those same things myself by going to a craft store and getting a glue gone and a $1.50 bag of jewels

What's that gadget called that lets you put rhinestones on your clothes? This reminds me of that.
