Someday, I tell myself often. Someday I will/might own the iconic Lady Dior tote bag from the House of Dior. Actually, I only found out yesterday that the Lady Dior is more than just the tote. It also comes in a hobo which actually suits my purposes better.
Truth be told, I did own a Lady Dior tote from Dior Cosmetics’ Summer 2009. For me, Dior has not topped that release till now. However, that Lady Dior compact now lives with a friend together with its bigger roomier twin 🙂
My love affair with the Lady Dior started a few years ago on a trip to Hong Kong. I stepped into the Dior boutique in one of the malls, and just fell in love with the design and the to-die-for lambskin leather. I am partial to top handle bags so this one was right up my alley.
I never knew it had a name to be honest. I just knew it as the quilted bag from Dior. It was apparently popularized by the late Lady Diana but I didn’t know that. Tells you what little I know or how closely I follow trends 😛 Also explains why I’m late jumping on the bandwagon.
