I spotted this owl purse in a market in Florence, Italy and quickly trotted over to the stall for a closer look. My sister saw it at the same time and we nearly had a little tug-o-war over it, but she graciously allowed me to purchase the gem. It's been quite the statement piece and garnered a lot of positive attention at NYFW. It also happens to be the perfect size to carry my camera and the straps can be switched to make it an across the body bag or a backpack (the latter style I highly doubt I will ever utilize). Since everyone has been raving about the purse, I thought I'd feature it in a detail post.

It's really, really amazing. If I was your sister we would have fought to the death over that thing. (Btw I probably would have won because I friggin' love owls and I have a really mean left hook.)
I really want to steal this from you haha
The embossing on the feathers is amazing. Definitely the most unique owl accessory of the season.
Such an adorable bag x
its so cute! what a lucky find x
It truly is amazing! What a lucky find!
Oh my goodness! I just LOVE it! I'd have fought much harder than your sister did to snag this beauty, ha.
So cool!

So good. What are the feathers made of?
OMG coolest and amazing purse I've ever seen!
lusting over it. big time.
This is a seriously awesome purse. I love it even more so because its from Florence, Italy.
wow! that purse is amazing :)
I LOVE that purse!!!
Amazing!! I'm totally in love with it! Was it the only one available at the market, and where was that market? I'm going to Florence in two weeks that's why :)
It's really detailed and looks like good quality in addition to being really cute!
I love this bag !! it's very beautiful =)
oh goodness, that is darling. love the embossed leather feathers.
So cute! Looks really well-made too, so hopefully it will have an owly long life :) I almost got a new purse today at a flea market for free, but then had too much other stuff to take it. Well, maybe someone else will be happy with it.

Ooh wow what a sweetie!
lovee this owl purse, the details is amazing!
xx
I love it!!! I've recently fell in love with anything having an owl shape, owl print or owl feel...so your purse makes me really jealous! :) (I have only an owl necklace and an owl T-shirt :-D)
Love,
Andrea
SOOO WONDERFUL! My parents went to Florence a month ago, so bad I haven't seen this bag before or I'll ask them to bring me one. A really unique piece!
I love it ! But one question ur newest blog, where I have to go for the giveaway ? xoxo <3
Owls are one of my favourites and this is a beauty! The beak reminds me of a Fruit Pastille too which is odd! :) Maria xxx
Love

Love your purse.
that is adorable! i would have fought tooth and nail for it haha x
so so CUTE! obsessed with all things owls lately.
what a great find! i love this owl purse! <3
It's even more awesome close up. Congratulations on such an ace buy. xx
The details are amazing! Is it leather? If so that makes it even more amazing. I've always regretted not trying harder to buy more things in Florence. Seems everyone who comes back from there comes home with the most amazing things.
It's absolutely exquisite! The details! Best example of how everything gorgeous doesn't have to cost a million bucks!
Anyw, I got to salute you! You can still wear the cardigan you had when you were 6?! That's amazing! You always look so sweet; and your grandma's place (i.e. that patio) looks so perfect!
What a purse ! I absolutely love it<3 owls r so cute ;)
I'm so glad you did a detail post of this little guy because I've been admiring him from afar. So perfect!
I love owls and that is ADORABLE x
What a treasure!
I have been eying this beauty for a long time now. Maybe an early birthday present to myself is on the way. :)
i saw these owl purses when i lived in rome. i love them. i just couldn't rationalize a 50 euro owl purse haha. completely jealous that you got one.
@Maura, I guess they're cheaper in Florence b/c I definitely didn't spend 50 Euro...more like half that. :)
