Gucci Bamboo Bar Leather Tote: Almost Cute

I walked by Gucci today Christian Audigier and saw a few bags that are definitely snob worthy. There was a gray/white python one that stopped me in my tracks for a minute and almost convinced me to pull out that Amex card I've semi-retired. Luckily I came to my senses and moved on, that's when I came across the Bamboo Bar Leather tote. Now this is not a bad looking bag, I actually like the shape, the leather and even the very discreetly placed strip of embossed logo leather. What is puzzling is the flimsy (though stylish) Coogi handles and all the unnecessary little pieces of straps that render the bag sloppy. So the bag is almost Affliction cute but definitely expensive ($1,895 for leather).
