ckparis and gucci python hysteria




ok you all, as promised, better pix of my gucci black python hobo. i love how the underneath scales are white. this is the kinda bag that will be better and better as it gets distressed with use and the black scales pop open to reveal the white scales underneath.

rock and roll chic. yeah. and i have on my white retro super futures.

you see the gold medallions on my bag? they are a tribute to guccio gucci who founded the company. guccio appears on the medallions as a knight in armour holding a suitcase and a bag. guccio was a lift attendant at the savoy hotel in london. it is said it was at the savoy hotel that he developed his love of luxury goods and went back to italy to start a leather company.
i am not usually one for logo names on the outside, but this story coupled with the rocker black/white distressed python did me in.

see you on the astral plane.

Gorgeous! the close up is amazing and the way it hangs on your shoulder is perfection. For some reason I love the watch (panerai?) next to the bag's hardware.
