The Fendi Jewel Evening Bag

The Fendi Jewel Evening Bag
In the case of the Fendi Jewel Evening Bag, it pays to read the description and take a glance at other photos available. When I first stumbled upon this purse I thought it was a normal day size bag, however when checking out the details I realized it’s far too tiny for a day bag.

This designer bag by Fendi is a really beautiful evening piece with simple, yet stylish detailing. The boxy light grey suede small evening bag features an oversized transparent plexiglass jewel stone on top, which when flipped over reveals a mirror. Measurements are 8� width x 5� height x 3� depth with double small arm straps with a 4� drop.
