Yea or Nay: Proenza Schouler Palm Leave Wooden Handle Bag, $39.99 at Target

I think it is cute. Looks like a great vacation bag, weekend bag, beach bag. Don’t think it would be so great for the office or anything serious. Like you, I hope the trim is leather. Great price for a lower end designer bag. The colors are too Fun!!

This is a cute bag with a great color combo for spring.
In my town, Target is the cutest, most trendy store.
Everything else is Lily, A&F, and Belk’s and Dillards.  Those stores are either full of jeans with holes in them for nearly 100 bucks or too stuffy for my tastes.
So I love Target.

Nay.  It looks cheap.

With anything at Target, it’s always one or two details off from what would make it a good buy, IMO. Yes, it needs to be leather…and frankly, I HATE the wooden handle. The handle will make it hard to carry in some situations, and highly impractical for the places I would go on a regular basis – it needs to be over the shoulder and usable.

I think it is a cute bag.  That being said, I, along with others hope the trim is leather.  I like wooden handles as well.

Personally, I wouldn’t buy it because I find that fabric bags get dirty so easily and are hard to clean.

Too cheap and impractical. Big nay.

I don’t like the wooden handels, but it is a cute bag.

I like this one better: http://tinyurl.com/3afefn

I would like it more if it didn’t have the shiny, patent leather-looking purple parts. It just doesn’t look right on this bag, makes it look like it’s trying to do too many trends at once

ICK!!!  I just don’t like it.  I can buy a higher end bag on sale at Macy’s that looks better than that for a better price.

U-G-L-Y…this purse has no alibi.  It’s UGLY!

I found the Froogle back door.  Some things looked cute, including the linen handbag.  I definitely preferred it over the pink.  There was also a beautiful kimono top dress in white and turquoise that I thought might be nice if it’s not junior sized.

Question: how much control do you think the designers have over their products?  Do they get to handle the bags and the clothes and the shoes?  Do they really look at the pieces, or do you think it just gets approved by someone in the studio?  I know the video on the website shows Isaac looking at his pieces in the showroom, but some of the shoes look so cheap up close.

Eewwww. that’s so ugly!
seriously, go to the coach outlet
and buy a coach purse, they’re not
that bad, and they are so much better
quality.

I just think it’s too busy.

Looks nice for the summer.However if the trimming is leather then i would definately consider getting it.Are there other colours?

This could work except for the bright purple strip at the top. Of course, it all depends what your outfit is and where you’re carrying the bag.

Everyone can view the full Proenza line up close by going to Froogle and typing in “Proenza Schouler” then clicking “Target” for the retailer. Target uploaded the full line to their website but until it is formally released you can only get in through the back door!

Please tell me, where did you get the links to these? I have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of proenza schouler’s line at Target, yet I haven’t been able to find any of the items online yet. I can’t find your bags without the links you gave us. How are you able to find the links? There are a million cute things I’m looking forward to buying from the collection.

Shouldn’t it be Leaf Print?

I’m thinking not.
