Woven Face Tote, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Here’s a designer tote that definitely falls into the ‘bold and bright’ category! Featuring a cheerful face woven in bright colors on vibrant purple wool, the Woven Face Tote (they didn’t exactly get creative with the name there, did they?) from Sonia by Sonia Rykiel has a zipper closure on the top (gotta […]
Harveys Seatbelt Bags Boutique Collection
Filed under: Handbags
You might be thinking that “seatbelt” and “luxury” aren’t synonymous, unless you’re talking about a car. Then you must not know about Harveys Seatbelt Bags. These bags are great — durable, practical, fun, functional, and available in lots if colors. But still not luxury, until now. Harveys recently debuted its Boutique Collection, branching […]
Alexander McQueen’s Take on Western, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
I’ve mentioned Zappos Luxe Life before. Now and then I browse the store to see what’s new in the Couture section, and recently I found a bag that I really like for fall. Usually Alexander McQueen is too way out for me, but I think this Western-inspired patent bag is great for the […]
Fendi “To You” Metallic Pouchette
Truth be told, I’ve always found Fendi’s “To You” style to be one of the label’s weaker offspring. But - color me surprised! - I’m strangely drawn to this new Metallic version, which features a very “Less Than Zero”-ish gleaming mirrored silver frame and a sparkling metallic-flecked goatskin body. Subtle it’s not, but since when […]
Burberry Metallic Leather Shoulder Bag, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Flashy and catering to both the current metallics and military trends, this Burberry bag is sure to brighten up any outfit — almost literally. The shiny silver acts as both a neutral in terms of coordinating with other colors but it also gives off its own glitz vibe and can be very useful […]
Coach Legacy Leather Top Handle
It’s been a while since I’ve admired a Coach purse, but the new Legacy Leather Top Handle easily earns praise for being that rare combination of chic and sensible at once. The bronze metallic hue is quietly glamorous, perfect for carrying to the office without making a fuss the way gold would, and the bag’s […]
Lauren Conrad & Her Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag
While I’m a little disturbed that two-year-olds are apparently watching “The Hills,” I am green with envy over Lauren Conrad’s summer-chic traveling outfit. The long, flowy maxi dress is on-trend and comfortable enough for long flights, and the white Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag is the icing on the cake. Once again, Lauren’s proved that simple and […]
Coach Patent Zoe Handbag
Fall is upon us, grey is one of the season’s hottest colors and patent leather shows no signs of letting up. Obviously it makes sense to blend these values together and see what develops. In this case, it’s the Coach Patent Zoe, a fairly practical handbag. While it exudes shine, it lacks that wow factor […]
Stella McCartney Chain Embroidered Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
This is a gorgeous clutch, and right up my alley because not only do I love the gentle dove gray color but I also love that it manages to look very luxe and a little glitzy without featuring any jewels or over-the-top crystals.
The Chain Embroidered Clutch by Stella McCartney is a generously […]
Coach Legacy Boutique Printed Crocodile Reese Purse
Coach die-hards are probably already in-the-know about the lovely Legacy Boutique Printed Crocodile Reese, an exclusive piece that will probably sell out thanks to its elegant design and reasonable price. Great to carry when you need a very small purse for minimal essentials (even your smart phone won’t fit in this), it’s cute to sling […]
