Stupendous Designer Accessories
Be&D Ruffled Handbag: I really like this particular shade of grey used here - it is almost translucent and gives off a light and airy feel, and the ruffles are very feminine. It is a great contrast against the stronger and more masculine feel of the metal chain that is wrapped around the bag. To a certain extent I like hardware being used as decorative accents, but it is refreshing to see designers using other types of detailing for this season. The calfskin leather bag features an 11″ drop shoulder drop, magnetic closure, and interior suede lining. It is also available in black and espresso. Bag dimensions: 10�”H X 18″L X 6″W.
Price: $1,280
Mark Walsh & Leslie Chin Flower Cuff: Even though this a cuff, my mind will not allow to me comprehend the idea of wearing a flower on your wrist. And I know back in the day we all had one for the prom, but even then I couldn’t comprehend it and wouldn’t wear one. In my opinion, this would have a stronger presence if it were a ring or a pendant. Walsh & Chin’s Flower Cuff is actually quite beautiful - it’s fun with a bit of sophistication due to the color palette used. I find black, white and red together will always look sharp and elegant (if done right). Made of glass enamel and 14kt gilt metal, the flower cuff is accented with Swarovski crystals and features mother-of-pearl lacquer detail. The flower measures at 2�” X 2�” . Price: $460.
Athropologie Tote: I’m struck by the geometric pattern and emerald green leather in Anthropologie’s Fairways Tote. The green strip breaks up the pattern a bit and incorporates itself even more so by showing how complimentary of color it is to the overall feel of the bag. The tote is classic in its design, yet fun and edgy with the use of colors. It features a a zip pocket, interior pouch and has a 5.5″ shoulder drop. Bag dimensions: 13.5″l, 13″w, 6″d. Price: $418.
Jill Jacobson Carnelian Cuff: Knowing me, I have probably already reviewed this Cuff by Jill Jacobson, But, I love it and it’s worth highlighting one more time in case you missed it. Made of plated gold, the beautiful center stone is carnelian. A bold and vibrant colored accent piece. The cuff measures at 2″ wide. It is also available with a green aventurine stone with scroll detailing. Price: $88.
