Pretty Little things called Purses.

3.10.11

Its so sunny here today and I am loving it, 29 degrees in october - somekind of wonderful.... There are  a lot of things happening at the moment, Vogue fashion night out, where I had a fabulous time, then its been Fashion week all across the globe. September is the new year in the fashion industry...

I stumbled upon this pretty little Jewel coloured purse, this green number is perfect for a night out, or as a day bag.




This is easily an object of my affection because its a timeless piece, it was love at first sight. Jewel colours are a thing of sartorial splendor this season.



the perfect size, for the little things you need to take around town.
