Metallic Python Bag by Oscar de la Renta

January 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I am falling in love with the metallic snakeskin bags of the season. I gasped as soon as I spotted this treasure.

Although it is far out of my price range I couldn’t help but blog about it so I can gaze at its beauty anytime. This fabulous bag is real python snakeskin. The skin is a metallic gold-champagne color. The hardware is gold and the buckles are tortoiseshell. The darker leather that you see on the top where you close the purse covering the gold hardware in places is lizard leather. Talk about exotic. The interior of this luscious purse is lined with twill. The bag’s style is a doctor bag… which is kind of weird, although I don’t mind the overall look of the “doctor” style. Oh well… at one time I wanted to be a doctor. The bag is 16 x 13 x 5. This bag can be found at http://www.vivre.com. This bag was priced at $3,895.00 but now is only $1,947.50!

Aren’t you tired of spending beaucoup bucks on the latest trends, only to have them go out of style and look silly after a couple of months? There’s an easy solution: build a wardrobe that will last.

Think back into the past. What clothing have you replaced over the years? For example, you have a white blouse in a certain cut that you’ve worn for 5 years- and a seam rips. This shirt looks great on you- what a bummer!!! Hurry to the store to find a replacement. These types of clothing are the basics of a timeless wardrobe.

Spring 2008 Fashion

December 31st, 2007 · No Comments

 

Spring fashion is always tres chic…feminine, flirty and fun. Although I did not go to any runway shows :(    I have taken a look at a few resources of my own.

Colors

Spring colors are traditionally pastels… uplifting colors simulated from the petals of spring flowers.  Fittingly uplifting, as bright shiny spring follows harsh deadly winter. Everyone is ready by spring to shed the sweaters, leggings, and wool coats to don lighter fare. The colors I saw on the runway were pink, plenty of white, black, and gray; and light blue to name a few.
