Chanel Crocodile Handbag

You are probably accustomed to seeing Crocodile bags from Hermes at Decades, and occasionally the unsigned Italian gem or a Judith Leiber clutch. However, for the Chanel lovers of you, this bag is a treasure to behold. Chanel from the 80s (to start with that is enough to get one excited as we know, and to put the icing on the cake) in crocodile.

Descreet and demure in its branding, this bag is about the skin. Only a Double 'C' logo zipper tab denotes the immense fashion prestige that comes with this bag. Otherwise, your critics will simply have to stare in awe at the gorgeous black crocodile bag you tote around by day or night.

Chanel black crocodile handbag with gold chain and leather woven straps measuring 11 and a half inches. This bag is dated to the 80s. SOLD

Guy Laroche Grey Lizard Clutch

You may have packed the little circular brown lizard bag, but to round out your vacation wardrobe I suggest also packing this grey colored Lizard bag. It will go with your white, it will go with your black and it will just dress up which ever little sun dress you decide to wear. Don´t forget it gets very hot south of the equator so you should pack many little sun dresses and lots of little bags as you will not want to carry anything larger at night.

Making it easy for yourself at night and in a rather dangerous country is always an important thing. But being safe and inconspicous doesnt always mean that you have to loose your flair and style. So this demure little evening bag is going to please you when you remember that you packed it and you retrieve it from your Louis trunk.

Sunset Madness by ANN SALENS

When the night falls in Buzios the beach goers make their way to the small bars and lounges that litter this little party town by the sea. If you want to keep the Bardot style alive you are going to want to don an uber dress that will call attention to your innate style and also make sure you get the best tables.

What`s more, you are by the sea and you will look like an emerged Iemanja, the goddess of the sea that Brazilians offer sacrifices too on New Year`s Eve when you walk in wearing this ombre tassel dress.

Thanks to a blogging fan, we have discovered that this dress is most likely an ANN SALENS original...one of the early Antwerp 6...and likely quite collectible!
