When it comes to my personal beliefs, I prefer to keep religion and politics out of everyday conversation. The same cannot be said for my beliefs on accessorizing – I’ll share those with anyone who bothers to ask. Curious to know my thoughts on the subject matter? Read on for my first of three mantras, and a drool-inducing Daily Diamond, worthy of worship…
A well-constructed, classic bag is one of the only things your wardrobe needs to complete any look. It can take any outfit from blah to blazin’, and doesn’t have to cost a fortune to nail the look. The trick is to find one that will transcend fairweather trends, but will also hold up to daily abuse. This one from Cynthia Vincent‘s 12th St. line is made from croc-embossed (read: animal-friendly and fancy-looking!) leather, large enough to carry all your daily essentials, and sturdy enough to endure wear and tear. At $331, it’s definitely in Daily Diamond territory, but worth the splurge if you’re looking to have a long-term relationship with your bag.
