Leiber Piglet Miniaudiere

Oh my god, how ridiculous is this thing? The only thing good about it is a good laugh. The pig is not even cute, it has this menacing look about it like a fat mob boss who’s about to whack his own cousin for being a drug addict. And this is coming from someone who loves pigs and thinks pigs are the cutest!! So, what do you do with this thing? I guess if you were in Charlotte’s Web, you would attend the Oscars carrying this appropriately themed Pig clutch (which would only be appropriate if you are Dakota Fanning). Is that random enough or what? I am really stretching my imagination for a purpose for this thing. If your life takes you to a far away land where this is useful to you, Neiman Marcus has it for $3600.

    I guess this should be taken off my list to give you for Christmas?

    I give Kelly lots of Pig themed things because she’s a pig but she’s right, this thing is hideous and does look a lot like Tony Soprano 🙂

  2. “I give Kelly lots of Pig themed things because she’s a pig” – presumably in the sense that she was born in the Year of the Pig?

  3. I saw this on another purse forum, and the person was gushing over it, and figured i s’pose one would carry this when pigs fly!

  4. Dear Bag Snob:

    I just wanted to say “thank you” for keeping us all up to date on the “I’m not a plastic bag” situation. I was one of the lucky few who was chosen to purchase one of the eco-conscious totes from Anya Hindmarch’s web site this morning (California time)and was able to purchase one for myself! How lucky am I? Thanks so much for keeping us up to date on this great little tote for a big cause!

  5. personally, I think Judith Leiber’s brand dropped way down after they dropped the “judith” especially in regards to her signature miniaudieres…

  6. Makes me think of the Sex and the City episode when Big gave Carrie a frog bag (like this ) or something like that. She was crushed and she had to actually carry it out.

  7. Oh mq,cb- you are funny. yes, I give Kelly pig themed things because she was born in the year of the pig. I didn’t mean she was a pig. haha. thanks for clarifying for everyone!

    xo

  8. Oh wait, in your original draft you put that you are a pig. I never read this final version. HAHAHAHA

  9. I’m a pig too and I LOVE all things piggy. I like the colours here but the pig is just not cute. And how do you use this as a clutch?!

  10. I love pigs to death. I have a giant 3 feet pig (currently dressed in my graduation gown, complete with cap and sash) in my car. My “signature” is a drawing of a pig. Yet this pig horrifies me. They really should have just had me draw the damn pig, and it’ll be so much cuter!!

  11. I know I’m in the minority, but, I think it’s so ugly it becomes whimsical. I like It. If I had the money I would collect her entire menagerie of beaded animal purses, cause their just so cute.
