The Kiss Me Tomato Spring 2010 collection is an array of the brand's signature [patchwork purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artycapucines-vii). These [eccentric accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moschino-x-milano-handbag) are a bit odd, but for the right person, they're perfect. Each purse is a bit quirkier than the last, but there's an adorable quality to the line that I can't help but like.
