STYLE UNLOCKED {living fashionably} BIG BUCKS BUT WORTH IT One of the big colors for spring is green and, trust me, this large Fendi Peekaboo Bag is a statement all on its own. This green leather handbag is made with two compartments divided by a stiff partition, twist lock on both sides, a single handle and a detachable shoulder strap. The stunning bag features woven strips of lambskin leather and calfskin, and it’s finished with metal. Made in Italy, the bag is guaranteed to make heads turn when you walk into a room. I envision it with a great white blazer and skinny jeans or, for the fashion-confident, with one of the vibrant colors of spring.
