Elsie is quite a unique name, and I actually know two Elsies and one Elsa, so I'm a bit biased. But the Chloé Elsie Lurex Shoulder Bag is not quite as unique as the name. Sure, it has a bit of exotic, with its alligator print, but that's about the extent of its exotic and unique identity. However, if you want a classy, classic bag and are tired of Chanel, then this is certainly a great choice. If there are two things that Chloé has mastered, it's great, heavy leather and the fact that the devil is in the details (metaphorically speaking).
This bag is made of Lurex, so no great heavy leather here. But there are some extremely subtle details that are worth noting: the twisted rope handles and the interesting clover-shaped turn-lock closure. So yes, it looks cool and classic and all that, but I think something is missing here. There's a hint of blahness that is just not going away for me. I'd say, pair it with an amazing outfit to distract from that. Buy through Net-a-Porter for $1,250.
