Juicy Couture Patent Leather Lovely Bag

Juicy Couture is the trade name for a modern line of casual and sports apparel that originated in Pacoima, California. The shape, size, and look of the Juicy Couture Patent Leather Lovely Bag really brings Juicy to a new level in the handbag world. The shape is clever and easy to dress up if you are older or have fun with if you are younger. The color is called angel, it is like a slight beige hue mixed with white, which is perfect for this spring and summer. The patent leather is offset with suede and woven canvas trim and contrast topstitching. The other reason I like this bag is it is simple. Juicy Couture is known for their charms and extra add-ons, but sometimes we just want simple. This is an incredibly clean look for the brand and I would venture to say most looking at the bag would not even realize this was Juicy Couture. Dimensions are 12.5″x 12.25″x 6″. Buythe Juicy Couture Patent Leather Lovely Bag from eLuxury for $350.
