Anya Hindmarch may be running away from plastics, but CFDA darling Devi Kroell is hurdling towards them with her new Target collection.
The handbag designer has six new accessories hitting Target this July, and all of them are shiny and very synthetic.
The interesting part:
The bags mimic Devi’s signature snakeskin bags in their look and texture, but they’ve got a filmy sheen that only comes from plastic - the kind that makes the bags cost $12 - $40.
Is the obvious faux snakeskin a dealbreaker on these bags? Or does it somehow make it cooler?

NO WAY! ive seen pvc before and usually it looks pretty crappy, but when its done right, it can look pretty amazing..
plus I love her bags, but couldnt afford them, EVEN with a discount!
YAY!
