Stainless steel as precious metal
If I had a few hundred nickels leftover right now, I'd probably be grabbing myself a little post-holiday pick-me-up, something like the cool handbags made out of hand-etched stainless steel from Pennsylvania designer, Wendy Stevens. And actually it's a good thing I saw them online at Greenjeans, because I saved the shopkeepers from having to wipe my drool off the bags.

I especially love the Phoenix Bag accented with a fine-grain red Italian leather or the Cambio Purse with its sexy, slinky shoulder strap. These are really unique works of art; definitely not your average found it on a street corner for 16 bucks kind of handbag. In other words, just what I need to shake me out of the mid-winter blahs.

Oh wait, it's not even mid-winter yet. Damn. Better get two. -Liz
