I don't think it's worth $1600. it's cute and different, the leather is nice and the shape is convenient, but I can't say I'm in love with the big tarnished buttons (and I'm not wild about how they're just sewn on -- kinda feels like they could fall off over time, just like a button). I don't see it as a trendy bag so it won't go out of style per se, but I do see you getting tired of it quickly. but if you absolutely love it then get it.
as for the stud "trend," I've had my sonia rykiel domino bag for years and think it looks cool no matter what.
