Ultimate Elegance

In 1991, we saw Carolina Herrera out shopping.  Not a hair was out of place.  She had a very rigorous sort of elegance that is not really seen anymore.  We were very impressed.  Part of her remarkable elegance was the It bag she was carrying.  Barry Kieselstein-Cord was THE accessory designer in the early 1990s.  Everyone coveted one of his matte gold animal belts or one of his bags.  His bags were very refined but with a wonderful touch of whimsy in the little animals that decorated the closures.  

Our beautiful Kieselstein-Cord bag is a flora and fauna nude suede with silk embroidery and a matte gold frog leaping across the top and a small lady bug.  It is as elegant and ladylike as we remember Carolina Herrera on that day.
