The Word in Jewelry and Accessories is “Huge” and a Balenciaga Sahara Sand Day Handbag Delivers

Everyone is talking diamonds since the word is out about Kim Kardashian´s 2 million dollar engagement ring presented to her by New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries. The stunning ring is a stunner that is 20.5-carat from Lorraine Schwartz designs. Now those in the know such as a-listers from Hollywood are familiar with the home grown third generation “diamond district” miss ever since s her rise to fame in 2002 when Halle Berry chose to wear her designs on the Red Carpet.

Since then, she has had stars such as Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lopez, Jessica Biel and Cate Blanchett all dripping in jewels for their special events. Ms. Schwartz has also been commissioned for ESPN - The Magazine, which had her make a "30-carat, diamond-and-ruby logo" for their 10th anniversary baseball caps. She is known to have a knack in making diamonds trendy and now and knows how to work with the over-size gems.

Lorraine has been known to make house calls to the late Elizabeth Taylor and has designed tiaras for some unnamed royalty abroad. A retail line of jewelry has been offered for purchase in fine department stores. However, her name will now remain synonyms as the designer of Kim Kardashian´s engagement ring until she tops this event.

Kim Kardashian is a “Super Size Me” gal, even with her designer handbags. Although she owns too many to mention, whenever she is jet-setting off to one event or another, it appears she carries a Balenciaga. It is the preferred choice for women who like their designer handbags big.

An authentic Balenciaga Sahara Sand Day Handbag is one such purse that meets the criteria of being simply “huge.” Crafted in Balenciaga’s infamous chevre goatskin leather, the outside zippered pocket is standard for extra storage space.

The pluses include brass hardware and ornamental features such as buckle accents. A mirror trimmed in the same Sahara sand leather fits perfectly in the exterior front pocket, or can dangle with an attached cord on the outside.

Leather tassels suspend off the zipper pulls which designate a true pre-owned Balenciaga. The hand-held or swing over the shoulder handle is in braided leather with fine top stitching.

The used Balenciaga Day can carry a multitude of personal items. The roomy interior opens via a top zipper and formulates this bag to be more than sufficient for belongings than others. The interior zip pocket in the pre-owned Balenciaga Day satchel is complimented with leather trim.

"The bigger the better" may be Lorraine Schwartz’s motto when it comes to jewels, but an authentic Balenciaga Sahara Sand Day Handbag sets that standard in handbags.
