Celine Day On

This beautiful bag is the Buffalo “Day On” Tote from Celine, a lovely purseceline-day-on-tote.jpg to take you through spring into summer time.

Made of a lovely soft leather, the Buffalo Day On is one of the sturdiest bags you can carry this season - not only does it have a fold-over top but it also has weighted corners for a more secure feel.

Silver hardware and a decorative ring on the front top off this very feminine, luxurious purse!

SRP $1,350.00

Celine Symphony

It’s called the Chain Symphony Bittersweet Bag from Celine, a gorgeous leather purse with silver hardware and delicate chain embroidery all over.

The name of the purse couldn’t be more apt - after all, there are few things more bittersweet than the end of summer time.

So why not give yourself a last hurrah and swan into Fall in true fashionista style with this oh-so-comforting gem from Celine!

SRP: $1,500.00

Celine Powder Pink

celine-poulbot-purse.JPGThis delicious-looking little purse is from Celine’s Grained Calf line, one of the stars of their fall/winter line.

It’s made of a lovely pink leather, with brass hardware and stud detail. It’s a very chic, pretty purse — even though it’s part of the winter line, it has a very sunny, springtime look to it — perfect for taking you from the end of winter into sunnier days.

Very Celine, very sexy, very sweet!

Shabby Chic

celinemessenger.jpgThere’s something about a Celine purse that makes me smile. Maybe it’s because near enough every French woman I know owns one, or aspires to own one. Maybe it’s because there is something charmingly Gallic in their design — that whole continental swagger hidden in refined style and snobbery. Or maybe it’s because there is a certain level of quality that can’t be masked by any amount of faux slum prudery — and Celine will always be decadence, no matter how much they experiment.

Take this leather messenger bag. The whole style is meant to look slightly worn, slightly old, very young and grungy. But then the handle! The silver! The leather! It is still a beautiful little purse, which proves that beauty sometimes goes beyond experimental design and vision to showcase itself in gorgeous materials and loving craftsmanship.

How terribly French to try to downplay wealth and luxury with a purse like this. Revolutionary, indeed.
