...and the bravura bag designers at Barfield & Baird who provided my own elegant envelope for this evening."

Seriously Sisters, what goldtone perfection this pouch would be for toting prepared notes of appreciation to the Oscars!
The gracefully "clasped" hands closure provides a sublime (and humorously subtle) reminder to not wring one's own while waiting to hear if your name is the one called. If any nominees are doing some last-minute accessory seeking, this one could pull you through in the "clutch!"
(no apologies, couldn't -- and clearly didn't -- resist
)
And Eliza, they even have a clutch named after you! Kismet, perhaps?
(Rumor has it Angie Harmon and Goldie Hawn are both Barfield & Baird fans if you're seeking some celebrity reinforcement/purchase rationalization...)
Let the countdown to the Red Carpet begin!
