[STYLE SCRAPBOOK] Modern Medieval Maiden

Near the end of last year, this Dafne Balatsos’ Stud Ball bag was making its rounds on fashion blogs and was even featured on Elle Accessories. As chic as it seemed, I couldn't shake the medieval morning star reference. Who needs a knight in shining armor to save the day when you're carrying this bag?

I've always felt the medieval era was a great juxtaposition of long, flowy drapes with hard, shiny chainmail.
