I don't know about you, but I am so sick of patent leather.  I wish it would go away and stay away for another 10 years at least.  I just don't understand why they make very expensive bags and shoes out of a material that looks exactly the same as patent vinyl????  It's just silly.

Examples:

$1,350 Marc Jacobs Satchel

$894 Versace Peep Toe Heels

These are both very expensive items, but they just look cheap to me, like plastic.  I guess it's a matter of personal taste. But I guess a lot of people must like patent leather because it's been around for a few seasons now.
