Judith Leiber Slender Curve Minaudiere, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags


You would think an evening bag completely covered in Austrians crystal would be a bit garish, but this one isn't. It's the subtle silver and champagne color of the crystals against the pale gold-tone hardware that keeps things in check. The frame is gracefully curved and the elegant push-lock closure adds a modern touch. A 10½" jeweled chain shoulder strap is included, which can be neatly tucked away inside the bag. The bag comes with a double sided mirror and a matching coin purse. $1495.

Judith Leiber Asscher, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags


Many of Judith Leiber's designs are quirky little creations that wouldn't appeal to most. Her Dora fish is cute, but might make a grown women feel a bit like a child. But this one I like. The Asscher is a compact evening bag with a large Austrian crystal placed front and center. Surrounded by even more crystals, the bag resembles a great, big diamond glowing against a field of black. Lined in satin with a detachable chain, the bag measures 3.5" square and is 1.5" deep. $2695.
