Just found this newsletter, love it!

Got a couple of takes: ‘normal’ jewelry is the jewelry they were everyday, as opposed to ‘special’ jewelry you usually put on when you’re dressing up.

These clear bags are the great granbabies of the Lucite purse, first seen in the 50’s, after new plastic products were developed during the war. You were supposed to line the bag with one of the 8000 scarves 50’s women had, to match your outfit, thus giving you a very versatile bag! NEVER was it intended (back then) for a lady to show the contents of her purse.

As for these new iterations, I agree, no one needs to see my secret purse stash.
