Accessories Megapost!!


Husbands of the world, beware: Decades has just received trunkloads of the most stellar bags, belts, and baubles you ever did see! Poring through the stacks of rare and outrageous accessories has got us feeling a sugar high, something akin to a young child punch-drunk on Red Bulls and Twizzlers.

Leading off the festivities is an "It" bag if we ever did see one: a Judith Leiber black snakeskin oversize shoulder bag! Long before Marc Jacobs was a household name, Leiber was giving fashionable ladies chronic back pain with heavy gold chain handles like these. It's biker babe meets disco denizen (one of our favorite combinations).



Judith Leiber Black Snakeskin Oversize Disco Bag with Gold Studs and Heavy Chain Handles, c. 1980s. Measures 13½" by 9½" by 6". SOLD


Next, two fashionable Chanel bags in violet--a must-have color for Fall '07. The first is an oyster-shaped evening purse in flawless satin with a gold clasp and chain; it's also stitched with the iconic CC logo on the bottom. The second is a buttery quilted leather satchel with gold hardware and ornamental tassels (fans of this look should check out our red Chanel bucket bag, featured here).



Chanel Violet Pleated Satin "Oyster" Evening Purse with Gold Clasp and Chain, c. 1980s. Measures 8" by 6" by 3".



Chanel Violet Quilted Leather Drawstring Bag with Ornamental Tassels and Gold Chain, c. 1980s. Measures 8" by 7" by 8". SOLD


Finally, we present two decadent belts fit for a fashion warrior. The first is a Judith Leiber black suede number with an oversize gold-plated clasp that would look trés chic with some Lacroix (view here) or Dominique Aurientis costume jewelry (also available by request at Decades); the second is a patchwork belt in suede, rope, patent, and rhinestones with a distinctive arrowhead ornament.
