To Covet: Magenta Fifty Five

December 14, 2009
File under: Accessories, Awakened Options: Vegan, To Covet

Occasionally, I like to post things that I just plain want – whether or not they fit my style, budget, or even my ever-changing mood.  Ergo, the semi-regular To Covet: a category that shows one thing that I’ve been coveting, be it eco-, socio- or independently-friendly.

MATT AND NAT Magenta Fifty Five

MATT AND NAT Magenta Fifty Five: $250

I’m just now getting to like those bright, eighties-tastic colors that have been in style lately, and I’ve always loved gunmetal detailing, and duh, it’s by MATT & NAT, so of course it’s amazingly eco-friendly, too. I was looking for gym bags when I found this beauty…and now I’m stuck on it.

Am I too late for the “garishly bright colors” trend?

  1. I say fuck whether or not you’re too late for it! Also, I think magenta totally falls outside fo the garishly bright color category. Hell, it’s been a staple of my wardrobe for almost a decade….

    • I think maybe it’s that it’s magenta AND it’s shiney AND it’s big. I’ve got a mustard yellow purse that would have fallen into the “trendy” category when I bought it, but it totally goes with my color palette…

      …wait, so does magenta. SWEET.

      Thanks for turning on that lightbulb inside my head, haha.

    I think it’s gooorgeous. Obviously I’ve never been one to shy away from bright colors, though, so take that with a grain of salt ;)

    If you just ignore the word ‘trend’ you are never too late for anything you love. Great find!
