Dior Paris ’50s Print Saddle Bag
5.26.2005 | by Megs | under: Handbags , Limited Editions
Do you remember grabbing tugging on your daddy’s pant leg when you were a little girl and crying and begging for a pony? If you just nodded your head all I can say is, “What a selfish brat!” Wait. Just kidding, I did it all the time. A pony among many other things. In fact, if you ever have the pleasure of meeting my wonderful father, don’t even ask him if I was a difficult child (because he would obviously say No, Duh!) Anyway, what does a pony have to do with anything you ask yourself. Well, as much as many of us ladies wanted a pony, we also should want a Saddle. The Dior Saddle Bag of course! Now this isn’t just any Dior Saddle Bag, this is the Dior Paris ’50’s Print Saddle Bag, and I can tell you I really really want it worse than I ever wanted a pony!
This bag not only a limited edition but also manifests a whimsical Parisian chic style, and shows off some of the most beautiful monuments and scenes in Paris through iconic sketches including Sacre Coeur, Notre Dame, and of course, fashionable women. “Prettied up with canary yellow and lilac flowers, this artful take on the classic saddle is truly a piece to treasure.” I could not agree more. Of course this classy little number is trimmed and piped in smooth leather, has the focal point at the oversized polished silver metal “D” charm dangling from the top flap, and a leather shoulder strap with polished silver metal “CD” charms. All of which I adore. Back to the pony. When you begged your daddy for that pony you just had to have, the answer was usually no. I have a feeling I will get the same response again for the much loved saddle. The Dior Paris ’50’s Print Saddle bag could be a down payment for a pony; coming in at a hefty $1,015 via eLuxury.
I just picked this bag up two weeks ago and I love it! Didn’t have a pony as a child either, but this definitely makes up for it :). Long live the saddle bag

howmuch is this saddle bag?
I’m curious about the term “limited edition” when referring to this and other fashion items. It’s tossed around all the time, but rarely do you see a number attached to it. I work in limited editions (prints) here in Paris. All the prints we make are signed and numbered (and dated). How on earth could anyone know they’ve bought a limited edition if it’s not numbered? It’s smart marketing, (and the bag is interesting), but seems to me slightly dishonest.
