Leather Purses are STAPLES! Especially Vintage!

Vintage 80'S GENUINE BLACK LEATHER/FAUX SNAKE SKIN Purse

Leather vintage everything pretty much lasts forever, (with proper care of course!).

Leather purses are 1 of my favorite things to shop for, because again accessories can take any outfit to the next level.

A great leather simple shoulder bag or clutch should be a staple in every gals closet. Leather never goes out of style and transitions well from season to season!!

Versatility is also important! If you on a budget like me :)! You want to shop smart. So you can always opt for a purse that can transform in to a clutch, so you get 2 in one and more for your money.

is great as a should bag but even better as a clutch! Polishing of that chic street wear "out for drinks" look.

VTG ANNE KLIEN 4 CALDERON LEATHER SHOULDER BAG

VTG ETIENNE AIGNER GENUINE LEATHER SHOULDER BAG

A little drama ain't never hurt nobody!! Spice your leather purse collection with a little oversizeness or color! Anne Klien and Etienne Aigner were know for their quality leather goods back in the day. Along with being well made, the bags are made of quality leather, and both pieces are about 30 years old and are great condition!! Quality is everything!!

VTG BEST CRAFT KELLY STYLE BLACK PATENT LEATHER

Taking a trip to the 50's can done right or horribly wrong! When carrying an iconic vintage piece, such as a "Kelly Style" purse, should not just pull it out for any old outfit. One of 3 things will happen 1. you will look amazing ------2. you will look old as hell---------3. you will look just plain crazy!! You style this piece with care because it is such a classy/timeless piece.

Soooo another year has begun and another festival season has kicked off with South By Southwest!!

Every festival goer knows that you don't just go for the music!! Fashion is a HUGE part of the music festival scene. You go to listen to the music and party but also to see all the creatives and "regular people" in there interpretation of "free spirit, gypsy, and bohemian, and rocker" wears.

So in light of the festival season kick off, I have put together some fabulous vintage sets of neck adornments to complement any haute festival outfit.

Vintage costume jewelry can liven the simplistic maxi crochet shift dress to setting off the most over the top outfit on fire!! Vintage has such life and layering is essential to give the fullest effect!! TAKE NOTE. I think I did a damn good job, clearly I'm on the rocker/boho line.. Any whhhoooo take a peek below to see all of the amazingness I put together:)
