Minnie's purse


You may remember the story of Minnie, the lady I wrote about who passed away recently. Well, her dear friend contacted me before I went on vacation, asking me if I wouldn't like a few of Minnie's vintage pieces. What a tremendous compliment and honour. This purse was one of Minnie's pieces that is now mine - don't you just love it?


The horsie detail is just too darling. And the strap is long enough that I can wear the bag across my body, which I did the other day.

I still have to photograph the other pieces, but I promise I will soon as some are really special.

  3. Thanks ladies, Minnie was a lovely lady with an amazing story; I guess the name is really from another era, isn't it? I love the purse and have some other gems from Minnie to show you .....
