I was at a Bottega Veneta boutique the other day looking at the dizzyingly array of amazing Spring bags when I happened upon this blush lizard clutch and quite literally dropped to my knees, thankful that my birthday is this Friday. I looked sweetly up at my husband with the most adoring eyes I could muster and to my horror, followed by gut wrenching depression, he laughed at me and then shook his head no!!! How dare he laugh at and then deny me after I made a little baby girl for him from scratch? I can easily buy this bag myself, I’d like to see him try to make his own babies =) The ultra fem blush color and lady-like style perfectly matched with the chunky linked hardware demonstrates the design rigor we’ve come to expect from Tomas Maier. His genius continues to infatuate us. The lizard has so much texture but unlike python, it is smooth which is especially important for a clutch so that you don’t mess up the skin with the constant handling. I should probably practice what we preach and save for a Birkin instead, $3970 is hard to justify for a clutch when the price is only one bag away from a 32 Togo.
