This beautiful bag was hanging on a rack with other very ordinary modern purses. I don’t think that the store personnel had a clue, but the magicvintagespy never fails to spot one . . . . . . .
Although it is faux leather and not top-of-the-line with no maker’s name inside, I love the pretty tapestry cover on the front. It is very well-made, as are most purses of that era, whether high-end or mid-priced. The colors are subtle and chic for Spring (or any season). It would be especially pretty with the season’s neutral colors like ivory, beige, or gray, as well as any solid color in the tapestry. It’s always great fun to find an unusual bag like this one.
My finds don’t always follow the weather, but I try to post photos of things that we would wear currently in North America. I know that doesn’t jibe for many of you joining in from some places in Europe, South America, Australia, the Middle East, Asia and the Pacific. Maybe the way the weather is changing, that’s not true after all!
Keep in touch and stay tuned because, you just never know . . . . . . . .

Though newer than most of my collection, these chic vintage shoes by Pappagallo were too stylish and well-made to pass up. They are leather inside and out, with a Vibram sole (the BEST, next to leather). Absolutely LOVE the leather ruffle. Although I have seen the ruffle done in leather on older shoes, I have not seen it on any newer ones so far.
Mid-heel pumps and the taupe color will go practically anywhere with practically anything. any time of year. This is a great accessory to have in your wardrobe because of this versatility. The style also spans several decades. In other words, a classic.
Tres bonne. Que jolie!
