See by Chloe Bags: Ring Around Shoulder and Grasshopper Bag
As far as the brand See by Chloe goes, I wouldn’t call myself a fan. I refer to their accessories line in which most portray nothing more than unflattering looks and designs. I spotted these two newbie’s to the See by Chloe collection, and I’m quite impressed at how much I don’t dislike these bags, they’re actually decent…
The puddly “Ring Around Shoulder Bag” looks as functional as it appears fun. The classic hobo design in neutral black with a pebbly flat shoulder strap pretty much states that this bag won’t disappoint. Funky resin ring at the handles and a leather star zipper pull make fun characteristics to what would have been a simple black shoulder bag.
If you prefer your leather bags with a pop of hue and with a price tag under $600, the “Grasshopper” cross bag might be the See by Chloe bag for you. The color is great, it’s not exactly lilac and it’s not too purple, and I’d say it would make a great bag for the upcoming spring season. Two thumbs up for the gold toned hardware as it compliments the color nicely and of course the ability to carry this with the top handle or long strap for a messenger style is always nice.

I love the See by Chloe purses! I’m thinking about getting the one
on the left, but I might wait until it hits the sale section.
I saw these bags in person. Really amazing, that’s all I have to say.
Definitely worth every penny. I still can’t decide which color
of the Grasshopper to get.
These bags are just okay. I’m not crazy about them.
These are really cute but I probably wouldn’t buy this.
The one on the left reminds me of another bag.. can’t put my finger
on it.
