at home all day watching paint dry...

I am drooling over this fuschia Hermes Kelly bag that I saw on The Purse Forum. (The crown moulding painters were here today and dragged out the job so it lasted a solid 5 hours--ONE ROOM! 5 hours that I was stuck here with nothing to do because I thought it wouldn't take very long and I'd surely make my 12:00 hair appointment. Had to cancel said appointment. Arrrrgh!)
Anyway, I love the hot pink color of this bag and the fact that it is a classic that never goes out of style. I also love that it was named after the beautiful and elegant Grace Kelly. Loved her in "Rear Window", "High Society", and "To Catch A Thief". Here she is carrying one of her many "Kelly" bags:

Modeling a lovely pearl necklace:

I don't have a Kelly bag and possibly never will because the price seems a bit unjustified. I came across a picture of the engagement ring that Prince Rainier gave to Princess Grace. It is an emerald cut with baguette side stones. It looks like Grace and I have the same taste in rings, also, as mine is the exact style, ... but not 10 carats!! Here's a pic of Grace's stunning ring:

Fabulous bag and ring! I love her too! When I was in Monaco, I definitely had to pay my respects and do the Grace tour. Love her!
