My Questions....
Who wore these lovely little purses???
What did they wear on the occassions that they carrying them??
What grand journey's have these little jewels been taken on??
If only I could go back & see each one of them being used...
it would be such splendid MAGIC!!!
Just a little Eye Candy from The Metropolitan Museum of Art...
I DO ADORE their Collection of
Vintage Bags!!!
XOXO
