Heidi Klum with Givenchy Nightingale

Givenchy Nightingale
Givenchy Nightingale

Ok, I know, I know, my celebrity postings have been excessive lately. But all of my favorite ladies (some not so favorite) are carrying around the hottest handbags! It is hard to pass it up. Now this bag I think you will all enjoy, even if it is not in this color combination. The Givenchy Nightingale has been a fan favorite of stars like Ashley Olsen and a favorite of handbag lovers world wide for its sleek and clean appeal. There is something utterly perfect about this bag. What is even more perfect, is the beautiful Heidi Klum carrying it. Even more perfect you ask? Heidi Klum carrying it while being a great mom to her three children, Leni, Henry and Johan. And even more perfect than that… her body. I had to take it that step farther because when I saw her strut down the Victoria Secret runway merely 6 weeks after giving birth I got green with envy. And now I am green with envy over her green Givenchy Nightingale! This handbag is filling all the right categories. It is the perfect punch of color that spring is calling for, it is the perfect everyday bag, and it has that casual chic feel. This version sports a slightly wrinkled patent leather with a zip top closure, double top handles, and a removable shoulder strap. The inside is lined in fabric and has a side pocket and two organizational pockets. Dimensions are 13″ x 14″ x 6″. 5″. I loved this bag before, and now I have a slight case of obsession with it. If I had not just bought the Rebecca Minkoff Wine Nikki (ordered!!), Louis Vuitton Clutch (waiting for me!), and Louis Vuitton Watercolor Speedy (waiting for it to arrive), then I would most definitely go for it. But I have to show some restraint. Anyhow, my trip to NYC next week may have me leaving with a few other handbags, you never know :wink: Buy through Barneys for $1395.

I had been looking at this purse and think it’s beautiful. And the good thing is that not EVERYONE is wearing this bag!

I bought the black patent one early last fall and the patent actually started to rip neat the strap…I was so sad! I went to Barneys and they didn’t have the patent in black anymore so I upgraded to the leather in black. I was still very upset since I loveeee patent leather…
I actually went back to Barneys last week…and there it was again in black!!!! :(

That’s a pretty bag! Thanks for posting an action shot of Heidi Klum using it. Gives me a much better idea of the size.

The color is neat-I suppose even better in person,but somehow a bit sad looking.

It looks great when it is stuffed, but otherwise it looks like a sack that has a brick in it.

Comment by chloehandbags on 03/28/2008 at 12:03 pm

Actually, I quite like the sack with a brick in it look, myself! :lol:

I love the design and the colour.

British reference, but the leather is exactly the same colour as the foil wrappers of the triangle chocolates in boxes of Quality Street! :grin:

Comment by chloehandbags on 03/28/2008 at 12:12 pm

Actually, I’ve just checked and apparently, some time since I last saw the inside of a box of Quality Street (which was probably sometime in the mid ’90s!), they’ve changed the wrapper for an inferior-looking, darker green, logoed version.

It’s a shame, as the foil wrappers were always the best part, IMO; it was certainly never the rubbish chocolates, that’s for sure! :lol:

Never has a confectionary been more ironically named…

(Comments wont nest below this level)

I too remember Quality Street chocolates from my visits to England and Hong Kong and you are right about the color. I haven’t had one in about 15 years.

Congratulations for all girls….this bag is very cool…Gosh.. I donĀ“t have worlds…. Amazing!

I love this bag. I have it in white patent leather. I wore it all last summer — it was stunning, durable and best of all, any marks on it could simply be wiped off. Best of all, it was comfortable, easy to open, held everything and nothing got lost inside. Very user-friendly

 
Comment by Kindra on 04/03/2008 at 10:39 pm

Wonderful! love the color, texture, quality and size. The choice of handles are quite creative.
