I wrote a post on this topic approximately 800 years ago, which I cannot find at the moment, but I think it’s a topic worth revisiting in light of the handbag world’s continuing trends. A commenter over at TalkShoes mentioned late last week that she didn’t care for the shoes that match the Gucci 1973 Python Bag because she only likes natural-colored python, and I used to be the exact same way. Clearly, that’s changed.
With Women’s Wear Daily reporting that we can expect to see rainbow
reptile accessories well into 2012, you’re probably either full of
joy or disappointment at the prospect of seeing more candy-colored python on store shelves for at least six months. Even though I was a naysayer in the past, when the colors are as well-chosen as those in the current Gucci collection (and this bag in particular), I’m glad this trend came about.I love it! I think python and green is a natural fit (maybe because I grew up on Harry Potter and it reminds me of Slytherin, hee). Gucci does such a fabulous green python, here and also in the small shoulder bag with horsebit detail. Chloe has a highly covetable small green python paraty on NAP too, more of a mossy green. I love them all.
A little ways off handbags, but I also love the bright blue watersnake Louboutin pumps that were out a wihle ago. There is just something so luxe and compelling about a bright snakeskin.
