In fact one search online will reveal plenty of sites dissecting everything that the girls wore or carry in the movie and immediately propelled their desirability and price. It’s not like I am crazy over the Prada clutch just because SJP carries it but the idea of carrying a clutch or in a guy’s case *ahem* they would prefer to call it a portfolio/document bag, excuse me thank you very much has never occurred to me before and I find it very fresh indeed. I was actually quite put off b...
