Prada Ostrich Pyramid Tote: Sweet Dreams are Made of Thee

icon

Give me a moment to gather myself. I’m on the verge of panting like a lunatic. The profound lust I have for this bag cannot be overstated. Its color instantly takes me to a happy place, and the structure and skin catapults me into fantasyland.

There’s no doubt about it: ladylike is back in full-force, but this vintage style in aquamarine ostrich goes beyond any trend. Mad Men inspired a whole obsession with the Sixties that still hasn’t completely died down, but this is even more innocently refined. Think 1950s, a time when women looked as perfect as the pastel-hued homes they kept.

Prada sure knows their way around a frame-top bag; it even might be what they are best at. This top-handle’s sturdy architecture seals the deal, cementing it as a classic with longevity to spare. There’s so much you can do with this dreamy ostrich: keep on with the theme and do it up like a lady, or funk it up with a shocking Goth vibe. Whatever you do, make it fun. Poodle-skirt anyone? At Neiman Marcusicon for $6,690.

Pair with: Something wild this way comes. The lady meets the rebel with Vera Wang’s boldly print satin dress. Watercolor-like bursts of color make this yellow frock a true standout. Literally. At Bergdorf Goodman for $1,095.

  1. At first glance I thought the headline read, Sweet dreams are made of ‘Twee.’

    That would be appropriate too.
