The Nina Ricci Ondine Agneau Bag

The Nina Ricci Ondine Agneau Bag is, by far, one of the prettiest bags of the season.

This beautiful purse calls forth images of extravagant architectural moldings and hand-carved details you only see in palaces like Hofburg or Versailles. While this handbag is clearly made with superior attention to craftsmanship and history, there is a certain effortless glamour about it; perhaps achieved by the pale pastel color palette.

This leather flap front bag features an elegant woven leather horseshoe and bright silvery chain strap, and comes only in this particularly exquisite shade of pale grey. At just 7" x 12" x 4", it's a delicate bag, but its sheer class and subtle detail render it unmistakably expensive.

This demure handbag is extremely versatile; easy to dress down, easy to pair with patterns or colors, and easy to carry to a black or white tie event. It's one of those if-you-only-buy-one-purse-this-year pieces that you'll use again and again.
