Prada Tessuto Fiocco Tote
Bows are making a comeback it seems. There have been a few on coats and bags in recent seasons, and the trend is slowly making its way into mainstream fashion. The Prada Tessuto Fiocco Tote is a bow bag, if I’ve ever seen one. Made of calfskin leather and available in black or grey, the […]
Rock & Republic Metallic Olive Zipper Hobo, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Feel like a rock star by toting this Metallic Olive Zipper Hobo by Rock & Republic. It features shiny silver snakeskin-printed leather with polished metal hardware in a relaxed and generously sized hobo silhouette — plus zippers along the base can be unzipped to increase capacity even more. Pockets are everywhere, with a […]
Louis Vuitton Firebird Purse
I may not be a big fan of the oddball Firebird purse, but I have to applaud Louis Vuitton for offering something highly unconventional and much more colorful and bold than the usual fare. Designed by Marc Jacobs and Richard Prince, its roots are clearly evident in the vibrant colors, unexpected decorative embellishments and overall […]
Devi Kroell, Classic Hobo Bag

Fendi To You Embellished Clutch
I’ve never been quite fond of the Fendi To You collection, so it comes as no surprise to me that I’m not wild about the line’s Embellished Clutch. Laden with white beads and sequins, the clutch is definitely attention-grabbing. To my eye, the beads look like thumbtacks. What I do like, though, is the rosy-beige […]
Louis Vuitton Weekender GM
Further proof that a big name means nothing at the best of times, we present to you the Louis Vuitton Weekender GM . In an attempt to add some flair to the Monogram Pulp canvas, LV splashes it with a coat of yellow (or pink, your choice) to give it an unfinished, half-painted look. They […]
Louis Vuitton Watercolor Jamais Handbag
Worlds collide on this new Louis Vuitton purse from the Watercolor collection. Jamais is as chic and city-appropriate as it is artsy and eclectic. Boasting a panel of monogrammed canvas done in a mix of 17 bright shades, it’s trimmed with buttery soft beige leather. A diminutive gold lock is all the hardware this already-detailed […]
Fendi Logo Wallet, Handbag of the Day

The Fendi logo wallet is the must have organizational purse/wallet. It looks sleek and eliminates fumbling for that evasive ATM card. The inside is lined with soft leather and has compartments for each credit card, plus zip pockets for change and a separate bill compartment. The long gold chain allows you to carry […]

A lot of industries are suffering amidst the economy troubles, but in many ways designer luxury handbags don’t seem to be one of them. Or at least if they are they aren’t showing it. Introduce Gleni, offering high-quality luxury leather handbags in fashion-forward styles. They’re 100% handmade in Italy of exotic leathers like […]
Fendi Peacock Fringed Pochette Bag
So it’s back to “normal” for Fendi, who can’t seem to really get it right to save their lives. This Peacock Fringed Pochette Bag probably started out innocently enough with its simple beige leather body. This may well be the ugliest Fendi purse I’ve seen in a while - I keep staring at the tumor-like […]
