Trend on the Cheap: Purple Patent

Purple and patent were the two big trends of the northern hemisphere fall. Get a piece of the action with this French Connection with this purple patent, stamped snake skin bag.
Mulberry Mabel, $1385 US
French Connection Soft Snake Bag, $99.95

I think I actually prefer the jewel toned colour of the French Connection bag, it's more versatile. And, if you're going for pleather, you might as well make it patent pleather because at least it's supposed to look plasticky.
