Maykimay Strass Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
I’m all about the Christian Louboutin clutches lately and this one is no exception. The Maykimay Strass Clutch appears metallic at first glance and closer inspection reveals thousands of shimmering black diamond rhinestones. Very classic but certainly not understated, this clutch is the perfect answer to needing a neutral but not wanting to […]
Halloween Pick: Fendi Beaded Spy Bag and Pocahontas Costume
Every year, many women choose to wear a variation of suede and beads to evoke a pioneer in our history for Halloween. The most upscale version by far is this Beaded Spy Bag from Fendi. The exquisite detailing is a luxurious option for any Native maiden. If this $2750 option is a little steep for […]
Burberry Shimmer Check Hobo
I am pleasantly surprised by the Burberry Shimmer Check Hobo. By now you may have realized that I am sucker for a great hobo style bag. The relaxed shape allows for tons of space to fit anything I may need for the day. Usually Burberry doesn’t do it for me, but I adore this bag. […]
Chanel to Increase Prices 20% in November
Filed under: Handbags
Chanel continues to live by a kind of oblivious “no time like the present!” mantra, what with its recent Zaha Hadid installation and now the news of a 20% price increase on its classic handbags, set to take effect November 1. According to fashion blog nitro:licious, a Classic Caviar Jumbo Flap Bag (above) […]

Nankeen Bags, Handbags of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Chinese-inspired and channeling the wild spirits of animals like the bengal tiger and the racehorse, Nankeen’s line of women’s handbags is anchored in simple, classic shapes updated with unique creative prints. They’re all on the casual side (even the evening clutches put off a vibe of ‘upscale but relaxed’) which is great for […]
Madonna Loses a Husband, Gains a Louis Vuitton Pulp Weekender
It’s safe to say this this hasn’t been such a great week for our dear Madonna. But look on the bright side - Guy may be gone, but Louis Vuitton will live forever! At least, one hopes. Madge chose to accentuate her stony-faced, all-black gym ensemble with Louis Vuitton’s Pulp Weekender bag, and the poppy […]
Airbrushed Wolf Sac Bag, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Who doesn’t want to take an angry snarling wolf with them wherever they go? I know I sure do! This is the Airbrushed Wolf Sac Bag by Maison Martin Margiela (I always think that’s such a mouthful of a name) and it’s a bag that communicates both designer taste and bad attitude style. […]
Prada Vit Mordore Buckle Clutch
I was getting tired of the whole buckle hardware at the center of a flap clutch look. But leave it to Prada to offer a great version that looks fresh and new. The rich leather on this Vit Mordore Buckle Clutch is the best Italian tanneries have to offer. Even from the photo you can […]
Loubinight Satin Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags, Shoes
Although this creation by Christian Louboutin is a handbag, the Loubinight Satin Clutch still manages to channel the high heeled shoes with signature red soles that he’s so famous for designing. Bright, vibrant green satin on the outside and rich, ’signature red’ satin on the inside, this clutch’s most endearing feature is […]
