vintage treasure

Last Friday little mommy and I went to visit our thrift store friends. while we were at the thrift store we found some treasures. I scored this vintage Dooney and Bourke bag at the last moment for an unbelievable price. It smells like perfume from a previous owner so I have it soaking in the sun on my windowsill with a box of baking soda inside. the leather was pretty dry from years of storage so I conditioned it and it shined up like new. now I feel like I've invested time and love into this purse and I really hope the smell disappears.

Here's a similar purse: http://www.etsy.com/listing/89702124/dooney-bourke-1980s-satchel
