Sheer delight! I’m in love with this minty-fresh color – it’s so uplifting to my eyes. Shimmering metallic, in a happy pale turquoise-y hue, set against a suede panel is perfection. The pop of metal as the closure completes the cocktail of texture, and the soft gold tone grounds the light hues for ultimate sophistication.
This isn’t the first time Diego Dolcini has one me over with his pleasing treatment of color and (his suede and silk bag also stole my heart). Nor is it the first time his changed my feeling about chain-straps; I don’t normally like them, but the cool shock of silver makes perfect sense here. And the price is fantastic for the top-notch quality. Diego Dolcini is a snob – I met him so I know! On Luisa Via Roma for $878.
Pair with: Make your shake-up of silver and gold a double with Yves Saint Laurent’s quintessential Tribute sandal, this time in two tones of metallic and with a more moderate heel. At Bergdorf Goodman for $995.
I like the color, but I’m not a big fan of the bag itself.
