Handbags as a fashion sin

 

There are things they just do not fit together, such as sneakers to evening dress or a floor-length fur coat at a height below 160 cm, or even plastic bags to designer jacket.
 
Expensive and Cheap
 
Sure, you can mix expensive with inexpensive, it does in many cases, even great. A simple denim jacket from the thrift store can look with a silk scarf from Hermes birkin and the fine cashmere sweater from Dior to appear faded jeans in a whole new light. What do not are cheap handbags to expensive clothes.
But the idea is creepy. Imagine, an elegant black trouser suit from Prada would be a plastic Täsch in light green or orange, or the little black dress worn by a bag from Chanel imitation of bargain counter. Tasteless were it still flattered.
 
Cheap and Expensive
 
The other way round, unfortunately, no shoe is it. A Louis Vuitton "Speedy" and "Alma" is a combination of dark blue jogging pants and a velvety fabric Chanel "Mademoiselle" was born to a leggings and a sweatshirt.
 
These are all cases of a fashion sin that we unfortunately see every now and then. This raises the question of which style the women who walk around like that? Did it just the outfit or just a credit to your pocket? Both were probably not in it together.
Sure plastic bags or bags made from imitation leather no shame, but they should already be carried to the right outfit. For casual jeans with shirt looks a handbag made of colored plastic determined from fine to costume designers, unfortunately not.
