I'm not familiar with the clothes but not keen on the bags. It's not really my style, I think they look a bit cheap and trashy TBH.
I tend to agree with this a little bit, I see a lot of school girls with these bags so it doesn't quite suggest to me they are 'quirky'!

Thanks for the post as i just brought the bag on the front page. £60 is a bit much but looks cool
It's very nice and I'm sure you could call it an investment lol!

The bigger bags I would deem 'quirky' enough so I got my missus some but everything else is gads!!

Around where I live, the only girls you see carrying Paul's Boutique bags are your typical caked in make up tarts with fake nails, fake hair, fake tans etc. So I would say, yes, they are pretty chavvy.

I'm afraid I would have to agree. It's either that or entire gangs of teenage girls all wearing the same (well they look the same to me) coats.

Definitely neddy. The girls have been wearing the quilted jackets with I <3 Paul's Boutique plastered all over them for a while now.

I have a toy (ssh! Don't let him hear that!) mouse called Petit B'lin, so I like to imagine that the 'I <3 PB' thing is his fan club growing.

Having said that though, I think the bags are pretty hideous. But then I have a patchwork handbag made of old skirts of my granny's, so I can't talk.

I have one, bought a couple years ago and still use it a lot to this day. I'm far from being chavvy, it's just my own personal taste. Some of the PB bags I have seen though I wouldn't be caught wearing, bit garish.

A brand that's gone the way of Burberry now if you ask me.

I agree, it's chav tat. Worn by teenage girls with a Croydon facelift and Elizabeth duke gold hoop earrings.

Used to think it was quirky until all the chavs started wearing it.

Chavvy.

I'm not familiar with the clothes, but I don't like the bags at all. I find them very chavvy and I'm not a big fan of things with brand names plastered on the front, very tacky

It's chavy. Jack Wills is far nicer for young people.

Anything can look "chavvy", it all depends on the person styling it.

Saying that, it is a challenge to not look chavvy if you're wearing tracksuits in public though :/

The Paul's Boutique bags have always caught my eye, mostly because they are quite elaborate designs and unique. However, I seem to wonder whether this is a sort of quirky, wacky trend or they are just plain-chavvy?

*If you haven't seen the bags before, here is the website - http://pauls-boutique.com/

Discalimer- I am not critiscising the bags, I am just asking for your opinions.

Thanks!

With Burberry, you have to avoid the check stuff but the rest is fine although over priced.

I've never heard of Paul's Boutique but the stuff with the name all over it is horrible.

Very Chavvy.

Every time I see a Pauls Boutiqe coat, for example, it's being worn by a Charva scrote with orange makeup or false tan and a scrunchie tied in her hair so tight it looks like it's pulling her entire face back.

I don't think I've seen or know of any fashionable, trendy or classy women wearing or owning a Pauls Boutique item. So best avoided. It's like Burberry of the late 90's early 2000's. Urgh!
