Easter may be over, but while I’m managing to eke out my chocolate supply I’m still in the holiday spirit. And what better way to hold on to that Easter joy just a little bit longer than carrying this Judith Leiber egg-shaped minaudiere?
I haven’t always warmed to Judith Leiber’s quirky evening purses, but I think she gets the balance right here. The egg shape is unusual without becoming a novelty, and its blue enamel finish is so regal. The smattering of multi-colored crystals is the final sweetener. They add the right amount of evening bling without taking this purse over the top.
Of course, no one buys a Judith Leiber bag because it’s functional. Therefore anyone who’s fallen for it probably won’t mind that the egg shape is even less practical than a structured box. Storage space is severely limited, so I hope you know how to travel light. There is a detachable chain strap, but something tells me using it would ruin the illusion. But I suppose it’ll come in handy though when the drinks trays start to circulate!
I’m lusting over this purse but like so many Judith Leiber creations it’s way out of my price range. At $3995, this is strictly a purse for cashed up fashion fans.
