Rachel Bilson and Jessica Alba have both been spotted out and about in the Pringle of Scotland Eel Plissé gray quilted bag (spring/summer 2009 collection). This is a sumptuous utterly covetable bag. I love the slate gray color and the fact that it’s just slightly over-sized. I could totally see this being perfect for traveling or for days when you have about a million things on your to-do list and you need a comfy bag that can hold everything you need without it looking bulky. It’s also low key and sleek in an almost Bottega Veneta-like way (especially given the basket weave detailing). The price, which comes in at slightly over $2,000, is also not bad given that it’s made of plisse eel skin. What do you think of this Pringle of Scotland style? Snob or Slob?

Images from Maybe if I was more into cowboy/rocker-chic I would like the Thomas Wylde Santa Cruz, but even gorgeous Halle Berry isn’t making it work for me. The fringe, the braided metal strap (seems like that would hurt your shoulder), the skulls on the side and then to boot crinkly leather — eeck! And with a retail price of nearly $2,000 I think this is a definite slob. Plus, not to get too graphic, but doesn’t it look like the skull is vomiting the fringe!!? That said I do like the general bucket shape and size of the bag. What do you think snob or slob?Thomas Wylde bags are available
