Can I tell you about Alva Chinn. If you grew up reading fashion magazines and obsessing over the runway divas then you would have seen images of Alva Chinn walking the runway for Stephen Burrows, Halston, Valentino, Oscar de la Renta, Yves Saint Laurent and many other designers of the era. In the fashion documentary “The Battle of Versailles”, Alva was present along with the other fabulous “Halstonettes” as they were famously referred to.

Can I tell you…gold bags are a great choice for summer as they complement a wide range of colors. Whether your’e wearing bright, white or neutrals, a gold bag adds a touch of elegance and sophistication without being overpowering. The Fernanda frame clutch can elevate a simple outfit and give it that extra oomph. The bag is handwoven in strips of platinum, rose gold and gold leather then finished with a structured covered frame. It also comes with a braided leather shoulder strap so you can wear it as a crossbody bag.
