CONSTANCE.

Where were you in 1979? We know where this bag was as it was being created by hand at Hermes in Paris for a very lucky someone. Now, thirty five  years later, we are able to offer you this stunning Hermes Constance bag in gorgeous cognac ostrich skin. The exterior is outstanding and the interior has some flaws that are shows in the pictures. This bag is NOT currently available at Hermes (you can only special order an ostrich Constance and it will cost you around +$12,000!). Here is an opportunity to avoid the special order wait and enjoy a classic that keeps getting better every year at a MUCH gentler price :)



Hermes cognac ostrich Constance bag 1979; 9 x 7 x 2 (bag photographed with and without flash) SOLD

GROWING UP

No one really wants to grow up except when it comes to their accessories!  There's something about owning a vintage crocodile Hermes Kelly that screams "I am chic as hell" and "I am grown-up."  There are tons of bags that are more juvenile and others more mature, but a croco Kelly (especially if vintage) is particularly worldly and the epitome of confident and timeless elegance.  Buy this beauty today here and earn your grown up gold star!

COLOR ME VERT PALE!

How cool is the color of this Hermes Birkin from 2004?  It's so cool that I have never seen the color before and do not know it's official name.  Do you?  Figure out the color of this bag and you will get a free signed copy of DECADES: A CENTURY OF FASHION.  In the meanwhile, buy this beauty here

DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF!

It is so hot in LA today. My eyes are watering and I feel constantly dehydrated.   Every stylist is coming into Decades to find an Emmy gown as they are on the 25th of August.  All we are thinking about is how do you look chic and sexy on the red carpet when it's 110 degrees in the shade?  Leave it to Valentino to solve the elegant actress dilemma: a statuesque column gown of white crepe with embroidered strap and goddess hip drape.  You can sweat in it and no one will know!  #Keepthechic on the red carpet and always wear Couture, baby.
