Love It or Leave It: Valentino’s Superhero Bags
Categories:Other Brands
Iconic superhero characters from the world's most popular comic books seem to have seeped their way into almost every corner of pop culture over the past few years, and if movies, TV shows, ever-expanding Comic Cons weren't enough for you, Valentino's superhero-themed totes will give you a decidedly luxurious way to cosplay for Resort 2016.
You can now pre-order a capsule collection of Valentino bags licensed by DC Comics, allowing the Italian brand to reimagine several superheroes' familiar logos with a bit of a signature Valentino touch. For example, the Bat Signal is now more of a butterfly.
As with all things Valentino, though, the details come at a price. All of these bags (which, to be fair, are quite large and functional) retail for over $4,000, which strikes me as a bit high for the non-luxury inspiration. Superhero fans are as dedicated to their hobbies as anyone you'll find, though, so these bags will likely find happy homes. For me, though, they're a pass.

Valentino Camubutterfly Bag Collection
Categories:Other Brands
Sometimes it’s not easy to be a girl, especially now that fashion is running so much faster than in the past. I mean, how many collection has Chanel showed this year? (including the releases) With Paris-Dallas and Cruise 2015, in total 5 Collections.
With so-many choices nowadays, the best is to choose a bag that has something to distinguish and that still matches to your personality. It’s easy to go for black, but do you dare to carry lipstick red?
And when Fashion Meets Art, we would like to introduce you to Valentino Camubutterfly Bag Collection. Valentino has been working hard on the Camouflage print recently, but none of them really attracted my attention, that is, until I found the perfect blend, they added butterflies to it.
A true work of art, a shoulder bag that can turn into a clutch for the evenings, crafted from rich leather with shimmering jeweled finger loop.
Notice the details, give some attention to the small butterfly pieces in colorful jewels, this bag is also ideal for the fall and winter seasons as the color is darker. Measuring 9.5’ x 5.5’ x 2.5’ (W x H x D), it has three open pockets in the interior. Pre-order for $2895 USD at Saks.
For those who don’t need a shoulder bag, perhaps a pouch? This pouch is decorated with beautiful butterfly print, but it’s not as hot as the shoulder bag, for example, you will not find jeweled butterflies here. Measuring 12’ x 7.5’ x 0.25’ (W x H x D).
