Dolce and Vita



Not a pair of cute dogs, but a couple of bags from indie, Antoinette Lee Designs. These bags, respectively Dolce and Vita are perfect additions for a Spring bag wardrobe (maybe all you need)both have sleek good looks, and won't break the bank...great looking bags at fantastic prices? Talk about the good life!

Dolce, a convertible shoulder bag makes easy work of going from day to night. Big enough for all day long, the gold tone chain adds a splash of pizazz to go into the evening. If your shoulder aches from the long day, simply remove the chain and carry the bag as an over sized clutch. There is a fanciful striped lining, zipper pouch and slip pocket inside, and the bag secures with a magnetic snap. It also comes with a dust bag...something uncommon for a bag that sells for $350.

Vita, the sleek clutch has style to spare. I love the criss-cross bands at the top, very sexy-chic...it looks like something you might see on a top, not a handbag. The bag is fairly long, and has a triple magnetic snap close, so there is no issue of your bag gaping open. It's short enough, however to fit comfortably under your arm, or in one hand. The Vita Clutch is $255 and comes in a few different colors, but the electric blue is my favorite. It's versatile enough to work with most shades...besides, paired with the Dolce bag in white, it adds up to a total Summer bag wardrobe for about $600.
Scratch that, both bags can be had for about $515, with the bonus 15% discount from
Bagtrends, where you can check out more bags from Antoinette Lee Designs among others.
