Greer's OC

There’s no doubt that Judith Leiber is an iconic luxury brand. First Ladies carry Leiber’s custom handbags at Presidential inaugurations, celebs hold her sparkling bags at glamorous red carpet events, and Leiber’s miniaudierés can be found in permanent museum collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and the Smithsonian in Washington D.C.

Now Judith Leiber at South Coast Plaza is making a resurgence as a modern sophisticated brand thanks to its new bridal collection; non-traditional tie dye print leather clutches; and artistic original eyeglasses with understated crystals, ornate trimmings, and 100% UV protection (each frame comes with a ear warranty).

The bridal collection is much fun, we love the “something blue” satin-lined purses, whimsical three-tiered wedding cake design with crystals and pearls, and the bow shaped wrap clutch with ribbon rosettes, crystal trim and butterfly snap closure.

Of course, you’ll be dazzled by the eye-catching novelty miniaudierés including the pink cupcake, Dalmatian and the birdcage—they’ll bring an instant smile to your face.

Open 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday; 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Sunday.

Level 1, in the Nordstrom wing at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa. 714.549.7177.
