Mama called the doctor. The doctor called the nurse. The nurse called the lady with the crocodile purse.

But who did the lady with the crocodile purse call?

Francoise Elizée, of course. The local designer recently launched an eponymous line of crocodile and lizard-skin accessories.

Designed with attention to detail and classic taste, the handcrafted wallets, clutches, and handbags come in luscious colors like hot pink, fire-engine red, and look-at-me gold. And because they’re available in a range of shapes and sizes — from the small, speckled Ria envelope clutch to the deep Neema shoulder bag — there’s sure to be a piece with your name on it.

Elizée’s beauties cost a pretty penny, but can you really put a price on fashion?

Your call.
