Dear Purseholic

I plan to get my mom a nice handbag as a Valentine’s gift this year. The thing is my mom is never much into designers such as Louis Vuitton and Fendi and more to old Nina Ricci and Hermes. I can’t afford any Hermes now and Nina Ricci bags now are different from the old ones. My budget is USD2,000. Help!!!

Hi Desperate

Count yourself lucky as Bvlgari recently put Julianne More as the face of their handbag campaign and when you mentioned old Nina Ricci bags, the Bvlgari bag first came to my mind in an instant. The price is also perfect at USD1,750.

I can imagine your mom having an elegant taste. Nina Ricci used to make super elegant bags. My grandma still has one which is timeless and really gorgeous and I am pretty sure she will appreciate this Bvlgari bag as a good alternative to Hermes.
