Wow! I wonder whatever happened to all those shoes???? The only ones I didn't see were her Jimmy Choo flats with the distinctive v in the front. I've been looking for a pair but no luck, thus far. Would anyone have any suggestions where to look?
Thanks,
Mary Shawn

What kind of bag is this? Does anyone know? It's at http://www.lestribunesroyales.com/forums/u...-1072394458.jpg. Page 2 on Diana's shoes.......the beige bag with locklike clasp.
If you have any ideas, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it.

Just a note--Diana and Charles are the same height. During the marriage when she appeared with him, she wore little heels so as not to look taller than him. Once separated, she went for the 3 inch glam shoes by Jimmy Choo.
I do agree, there is no such thing as comfortable 3 inch heels--I avoid them at all possible costs!! :P

Diana's incognito friend who was only revealed after her death was designer Lana Marks of Palm Beach. She designed a bag for Diana and named it after her. I looked it up--and can we spell "pricey?" I called and the small version was $7000.00 USD! I mean, it's gorgeous, especially in blue, but I never saw the Princess wear it.......

A present from Mme. Chirac in Paris. Diana wore various versions--large and small--a lot. I've seen the bag up close and frankly it is beautiful but glad I wasn't one of those who waited 2 years and paid $2100.00 for it. It certainly didn't suit me! But looked great on Diana.....

Chanel no longer makes it; you have to look for it on vintage late 80's, early 90's sites.
OK, can't figure out how to add photo. Here's the description--small black chanel bag with large diamond stiching and the CC logo embroidered right into the fabric. It has the standard chanel gold/black chain. If anyone knows how to insert photos, that would give all of you a much better idea of what I'm looking for.
Thanks,
Mary Shawn
PS She wore it a lot after separation from Charles when she seemed to embrace haute couture from other countries. Again, if I could pass on the photos it would help.

That is interesting cuz did not she once describe the CC logo as the initials for Charles and Camilla?

Wow the Jimmy Choo shoes she wore are probably still in style today.
The Princess' legs looks so killer in these photos.

She never wore enough "grand jewelry" for my tastes...I wanted to see her dripping in diamonds....and I thought the diamond heart necklace given to her in 1982 by Prince Charles, although "sweet" was not "grand" enough for popping out the heir to the throne....

I agree ; we never saw her wearing alot of jewelry. But I don't think she really liked it. I heard that tiaras gave her headaches ...

I would say Chanel. On this picture, the chain is really similar.

I'm almost sure it's Chloe. I used to have a Chloe bag very similar to that one only black. I believe mine was from 1996 collection.
Sorry, I just had a look at my bag. It's not Chloe, it's Versace. It's from one of his last collections. And it's exactly like Diana's. So I'm perfectly sure her's was Vercase as well.

I don't think it can be Chanel - the flap doesn't look like Chanel flap although the chains are similar.
