BlackGlamourMom Fashion Crush: HandPainted Handbags
Glams! Glams! Glams!
I’ve been sort of obsessing over the idea of reinvention lately. From my hair, check the recent post on my experience with (the Senegalese twists), makeup choices (bright orange lips) on down to some wardrobe staples. This whole idea of mixing it up a bit has really got me ticking. Actually the idea of always keeping it fresh and new has been a wardrobe mantra of mine. And of course my brother, a.k.a., my resident stylist, is continually pushing me to try all sorts of things.
Case in point: His latest craze has been persuading me to get one of my hand bags hand painted by a local artist here in Detroit. This is definitely a trend that we’ve seen popping up on numerous occasions. The Kardashian sisters are huge fans. Khloe has the flyest Hermes Birkin painted by Artist Alec Monopoly that is just to die for. And when Kim K-West sported her hand painted Birkin on Christmas 2013, I nearly lost it.
Being such a bag fanatic, they’re like my little babies. I remember my first Louis Vuitton (the large “Speedy”). She’s still a total go-to bag for running around, dark brown handles and all! In fact, I’ve been rocking with her for the past week or so as she totally makes a great summer bag.
So you can imagine and sympathize with me that the idea of unleashing her or any of my other bags to someone to do freehand paint work totally petrifies me, but I just can’t stop crushing on the idea of what a bag would look like! Let’s admit it Glams, it’s total #GlamMommyStatus.
A Mommy can’t help but crush right? I’m still pondering it but will definitely be keeping you all abreast of my decision.
