Some of the high points of the Baroque period include the invention of the pressure cooker, the popularity of the fork, and the fall from fashion of the corsets (at least until the Victorians rediscovered them). No wonder, then, that Peter Paul Rubens’s subjects were so voluptuous. Those who could afford to were eating and darned proud of it. Why not celebrate that spirit and take this pretty tote to market? Pick up some wine and a decadent dessert, too, while you’re at it. You have my enthusiastic permission to embrace everything good: Go for Baroque.
