The Latin Lover

My friend, Jennifer, took one look at this purse and said, "that has to be named The Latin Lover ", and so it became. The warm colors embrace you like Miguel, and the dark flower looks like the red rose he gave you by moonlight after a steamy night of salsa dancing. I wish I could describe the color of the silk better, but all I can think of is that it's sort of a dark roast, coffee bean color. It sets off the reds perfectly. The smaller orbs are made from dupioni silk and brocade, and the shiny flower is from some brocade I bought locally- dyed by the shop owner to give it it's dark shimmer. The larger circle is made with a pewter colored dupioni silk and top stitched with a circular pattern. The back has a crazy, Etch-a-Sketch looking design that I doubt I could reproduce twice. Every purse will have something similar, but never the exact same pattern. The bottom of the bag is stiff and has dark, metallic purse feet. The body is snapped together with a tab and magnetic snap. The lining, as only a hot-blooded Latin would have it, is red satin. tssss!
