Unique Purses to make you Look Fabulous after 40

Our formula for dressing after 40 is to take beautiful classics and dress them up with unique accessories that express your personality. But where do you find accessories that are interesting and different, especially if you’re style is on the artistic/creative side?

We found a unique collection of handmade purses crafted from vintage Japanese obis (silk sashes worn around the waist) that will make you stand out in a crowd.

This red purse from Shamar Custom Design is a beautiful, one of a kind conversation piece. It is from The Showa Era 1926-1989. The silk hand sewn fabric has been handpainted and embroidered. The sash was once worn by a a very wealthy woman and has now been recycled into this fascinating treasure.

The pin, from the 1940′s, has red Swarovski crystals and adds a touch of sparkle and richness. (See back view too>>>>)

If you are a confident woman and you want to be unique, rather than ordinary, a bag like this is a fashionable piece of art to add to your wardrobe.
