Metallic leather purse and silk ponytail scarf from Coach 2011 Christmas present from Vince ♥ |
I read from the Internet that it was Babe Paley, an American socialite and style icon, who first tied a silk scarf into her purse handle in 1950s, and within a matter of weeks, women all over New York were emulating the style. Well, well, well, six decades forward, and what do you know, her fashion statement remains a statement!
I have two silk ponytail scarves so far. One is brown and gold with the signature "C" logo (which I pair with my white/brown and brown Coach bags) and the second is as seen in picture above (which I pair with my plain black and metallic Coach bags). I find that leather, as opposed to other materials, are easier to upkeep and has the elegant look, so most of my recent bag purchases were leather. Plus, I've already gotten over the signature "C" logo phase, so I now prefer getting the "plain" style and just accessorize it with a scarf. Ain't that so babe? ☻

ReplyDeleteGreat idea; instead of keeping your scarf inside your bag you can just tie it in your bag. Fashionista pa ang dating...
