Splurge of the Week

This week's Splurge of the Week features a new bag from Gucci's Spring/Summer 2008 Collection. I'm usually not so much of a Gucci fan, but this one's a whole different story. This bag is Very Un-Gucci-esque in the sense of its unstructured, rather slouchy shape.

Presenting to you, today's Splurge, the 'Hysteria' Python Bag from Gucci's Spring/Summer 2008 Collection.


Hysteria Python Bag (Medium Size)

This medium sized top handled bag comes in black python with a detachable shoulder strap so that you can wear it crossbody style should you get tired of lugging your stuff in your arm. Well, crossbody is definitely more convenient, especially when you need both hands free to do your shopping, but Bagaholic Babe is more of a 'arm' style kinda gal.

However, this item is not available in California due to state laws on python products. If you don't like this bag in Python, and for those of you residing in California, this Hysteria Bag in Medium size also comes in Black patent. Actually, I much prefer the one in Patent, but I thought I'd feature the one in Python since it's our regular 'Splurge' of the Week post as the Patent doesn't really warrant itself as a 'splurge' per se. If you like this bag, it's available via Saks for $3,990. The Patent one is going for $1,790. Click Here to view the Patent Version of the Hysteria Bag by Gucci.
