Q. Can I carry a black patent leather handbag in the winter? My mother said only in the Spring.
-Uncertain
A. Where have you and your mother been hangin’? Have you not had access to magazines, TV or walked in a department store lately? I’m not trying to be harsh, but patent leather has saturated the runways, magazines and is available in some form or fashion in just about every store. So let your mom know what the old rules no longer apply and you can sport your black patent leather bag all year long.
