Botkier Logan
After chatting with Monica Botkier during her VPA I have new found admiration for her bags. As a jet setting fashion photographer, Monica spent years searching for the perfect bag– she finally gave up and decided to design her own. Now that’s enterprising!

Oscar de la Renta Python Bow clutch

The awkward clutching while cocktailing is not the easiest feat to accomplish– especially if one is also hungry and wants to swipe at the hors d’oeuvres trays passing by. I … Continue reading “Cocktail Clutching”
