Not your grandma's handbag

Valentino's handbags, while beautiful, have a tendency to run a bit to the matronly side. Not so with this this dazzling Embroidered Shoulder Bag.

This exquisite showpiece is a sublime creation. Chocolate suede is intricately embroidered with a bright peacock design and trimmed with metallic gold nappa leather and a wooden logo plate bedecked with crystals. It could easily have crossed over to "garish" territory, but is able to be eye-catching and flashy without going overboard. This bag rings in at $1,250, and is available for pre-order now.

    has anyone seen something more simple? check out these bags at www.youngken.com. Made of silk instead. Something new.
