Recently got this bag: Gin & Jacqie's Tropical Karen in red. Some classmates may have seen me carrying this around. And let me tell you it is one of the worst buys I ever had. The design and ideas are great. I love the bag. Though I had such a hard time making up my mind which one to pick. Red or Brown? I choose Red thanks to my friend's advice. Ha. It may look very well on photo and in the shop...but trust me when you start carrying it around, it cease to look that nice anymore. And I bet nobody will believe it cost RM200. People will tell me Pasar Malam also got sell RM40 or so.
Don't remind me of that. Design is great and everything but it is not what I think it is. I felt not worth it at all. The red colour is coming out and staining my clothes and the bad itself too. Very bad quality fabric for a bag. I got it less than 1 month ( I have receipt and friends as witness). This is my view about this Karen bag: Not good. maybe 6/10 but it only score so high due to its functional designs. I love the interior compartments and all. When I got home that day just out of curiosity I googled the brand and found out that it is famous for Mother & baby bags and travel bags. Yes I love this type of functional bags but...this one definitely didn't meet the line.
Some pic I got from the website. http://ginjacqie.com/proddetail.php?prod=G020&cat=12
See the inside, very spacious right? And so easy to store things. I will just use as a school bag. At first thought of using it as travel bag.......but the material is not good. The red keep coming out and staining things around.
See how cute it is to come with a make up bag of same material. Sigh.......too bad its fabric is not good. Maybe next time I will look into other bags with better qualities.
Just details of my Karen bag.
