Vintage Inspired Purses of Spring 2011

It’s official. Style authorities have spoken and it has been established that cross body bags are the hottest of the season. I did my homework and have short listed pieces that have that vintage vibe we all like.

Lanvin Sweet Dora Patent Cross Body, $1747

First off is this chic tonal purse from Lanvin. It’s boxy physique may suggest business but the details and leather strap allows you to party after.

Marc Jacobs Saffron Flap Quilted Saddle Bag, $1395

Also available in blush, this quilted chain strap is (yet again) updated in a more rounded shape with statement gold hardware.

Dolce & Gabbana Miss New Sicily Rafia Bag, $1525

Raffia trimmed with tan leather in a purse definitely speaksSspring. The Miss New Sicily will surely take you to your escapades from spring to summer in style.

Valentino Small Chain Strap Flap Bag, $1845

This functional classic is given  a lift by the edgy studs on the flap. The neutral vanilla shade is so season appropriate too.

All of the above available at Neiman’s.
