Stylish Green

While I was out on Wednesday, and around the same time I spotted the Audrey Hepburn bag, I spotted this one.  I was drawn to its lines and colour; it was the classic handbag taken out on the town way back when it was something you only took your essentials in and nothing else. 
There's no brand name on this bag; but the style and colour are just lovely.  It's in very good condition and it's obvious that somebody loved it; and did use it a lot.  The handle is the classic short strap that is designed to only fit over your arm and that's it; as it gets stuck if you try to slip it over your shoulder.  But I'm sure if I put a longer strap of the same design on it, it would look just as lovely.  A very desirable bag for a night out somewhere.

Audrey Hepburn Bejeweled

This week, I found a few little things that were lovely in the handbag arena; but to find this wonderful purse was something I didn't expect.  This Audrey Hepburn bag was hiding at the back of the lot of the bigger display of bags; and yet she looked just lovely all bejeweled the way she is.
So, I picked this up, looked it over and decided right there that if I didn't take it, I'd regret it later.  Just look how lovely those jewels are; how could I walk past a bag that looks this good?  It's as lovely inside as it is outside too.  And I'm so glad I did buy it.  Now, I look forward to adding it to my 'Tested' list soon.
