Prada Giraffe-Print Push-Lock Bag



On with Viewer’s Choice Monday, we have a beautiful selection from Wendy. By the looks of it, Wendy is quite the stylish and bold gal. Wendy has picked quite the number by Prada. The Prada Giraffe-Print Push-Lock Bag screams out fun and flirtatious for the girl who wears it. The bag is both beige and dark brown giraffe-print hair-calf with a beautiful buckle-detailed shoulder straps (which has an 8″ drop).The top has a flap with a goldtone push-lock closure. The bag doesn’t ever stop with its animal appearance, the shoulder strap and the body of the bag is covered in Giraffe-Print. My assumption is that the calf-hair would feel quite nice and out of the ordinary. The inside of course has a pocket to carry Wendy’s goodies. The overall dimensions of the bag are 6 1/4″H x 12 2/3″W x 4 1/3″D. I hope Wendy has been saving up or has someone saving up for her, because this Prada bag is going for $1625 via Neiman Marcus. Any girl that can wear a style this bold is sure to be the center of attention- You go girl!

Miu Miu Velvet & Leather Satchel


Like I promised, Monday’s will now be dedicated to Viewer’s Choice. Luckily I did have some people respond (if not this would have been a disaster). First we are going to see a bag that Zoe’s Mom “would love to be carrying to all her holiday parties this year!” Awesome choice. The Miu Miu Velvet & Leather Satchel really does call out some attention for some holiday cheer. While I did not like their blue/gold velvet combo, this red/gold swirl-print velvet satchel could put any Scrooge in the spirit of the season. Trimmed in dark brown cracked leather, the bag is bold and beautiful. The top closure is a belted tab over the open top which should make for easy access to your lipstick when waiting for the kiss under the mistletoe. The top handles have an 8″ drop, so the satchel could be worn under the arm or as a tote. The inside has a pocket if there is anything you need to be protected or hidden. Overall, the dimensions of this bag are 8 2/3″H x 16 2/3″L x 5 1/3″D. Seems like a good size bag for my favorite time of year coming up. On sale via Neiman Marcus for $765, let’s all hope someone wants to treat Zoe’s Mom to her holiday wish this year!!
