Alright, let’s talk about this Fendi bag, the Peek-a-boo ISeeU Small Bag, or whatever they call it. Folks are makin’ a fuss, sayin’ it’s the best thing since sliced bread, so I figured, let’s take a look, see what all the hoopla is about.
First off, they say it’s “perfect small but not too small”. Well, I guess that’s good, right? You don’t want a bag so tiny you can’t fit your comb and your spare change, but you also don’t want somethin’ so big it looks like you’re carryin’ around a sack of potatoes. So, yeah, “perfect small but not too small,” I can get behind that.
Now, they’re goin’ on and on about how it’s made, all fancy-like. Somethin’ about “556 hand-sewn macro topstitches.” I don’t know what a “macro topstitch” is, sounds like somethin’ a city slicker made up. But hand-sewn, that I understand. Means someone sat there and sewed it, not some machine doin’ all the work. That’s gotta be good, right? Like when you make a quilt by hand, it lasts longer. Maybe this bag’s the same way.
- Hand-sewn, that’s important.
- Lots of stitches, must be strong.
They also say it “looks and feels like a high-end luxury bag.” Well, I should hope so! For the kind of money they’re askin’, it better feel like somethin’ special. They say the “construction” is beautiful, the stitchin’ is neat. That’s what you want, I guess. You don’t want a bag with threads hangin’ off everywhere, looks like a dog chewed on it.
This Peek-a-boo bag, it’s got a trick up its sleeve, they say. It’s got this flap you push down, and then you can see inside. They call it a “sneak peek at the inner lining.” Sounds kinda silly to me, but I guess it’s a fancy thing. Like when you lift up the doily on the table to see the nice wood underneath. It’s a little surprise.
They make ’em outta all kinds of stuff, this bag. “Champagne-colored metallic calfskin” they say. Sounds like somethin’ you’d drink, not carry around! But I guess it’s fancy leather. And they got this “soft nappa leather” too, all woven together. Sounds soft, alright. Hope it doesn’t scratch easy, though. Nothin’ worse than a brand new bag all scratched up.
Some folks, they can’t decide if they want the small one or the “petite” one. Sounds like the same thing to me, but what do I know? They say they want an “occasion bag”, not somethin’ you carry around every day. Well, I guess that makes sense. You wouldn’t wear your Sunday best to go feed the chickens, would ya?
They got bigger ones too, “medium and large sizes”. And they make ’em outta all kinds of leather, even “exotic skins.” Don’t even wanna think about what that means. But they say it’s the “highest quality.” I guess that’s why this Peek-a-boo is the most expensive Fendi bag they make. You’re payin’ for the fancy leather and the fancy stitchin’ and all that hand-made stuff.
Fendi, that’s the name of the folks who make this bag. They’re Italian, been around since 1925. Started makin’ fur, then they got into all sorts of things, clothes, shoes, even eyeglasses. And this Silvia Venturini-Fendi, she’s the one who designed this Peek-a-boo bag. Guess she knows what she’s doin’, seein’ as how everyone’s talkin’ about it.
So, is it perfect? Well, I ain’t held one myself, but from what I hear, it’s a pretty good bag. It’s small but not too small, it’s well-made, it’s got that fancy peek-a-boo thing, and it’s made outta good leather. But perfect? That’s a big word. Perfect is a sunrise, a baby’s laugh, a good cup of coffee. A bag? I don’t know. But if you got the money and you want a fancy bag, this Fendi Peek-a-boo, it might just be the ticket.
