MOODBOARD MONDAY
This weeks Mooodboard Monday with Leonard Joel Auction House is all about luxury with a history in the upcoming Pre Owned Luxury Auction to be held at the South Yarra headquarters on the 14th of May.
Chanel fanatics will be happy to find a selection of handbags and sunglasses available for bidding, while those with a penchant for beautiful silk scarves will also have a rather tough decision to make. One of the reasons that we love a vintage handbag is because they offer so much more than just a brand name. They come with years of of love and adoration… and a lifetime full of stories that, on occasion, are most probably ‘best kept in the bag’. And as for those Louboutin shoes…well let’s just say that they are almost guaranteed to upstage ANYONE’S handbag.
The Luxury Collection is on view for you to look, touch and hold at the Leonard Joel South Yarra office on Wednesday 13 May from 9am until 8pm in the evening. The Hermès ‘Bombe’ ring has made our covet list…what vintage treasure has made yours?
