Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Slouchy Hobo, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
The Diane von Furstenberg Stephanie Slouchy Hobo is a perfect bag to follow this season’s texture trend. This roomy hobo may look like it’s covered in metallic chains, but it’s actually chain-woven black metallic leather. How hot is that?
This metallic “Stephanie” number also comes in Silver and Gold, but we like the black […]


Gucci Accessories Online Sale

Accessories are fabulous. You never have to worry about size, the good ones really hold up over time. Gucci is discounting some of their most popular pieces online this weekend (hurry!) for luxury fans like yourself. The black turnlock bag is $1679 (down from $2750). More accessible are the GG wallet […]


Prada Velluto Jacquard Tote

Want a bit of color to liven up your fall wardrobe? Make a mad dash for this love-it-or-hate-it Prada Velluto Jacquard Tote, which boasts a striking mustard yellow and black print in velvet on a nylon background. The handbag definitely has a quirky, old-fashioned aesthetic - like something you’d find lurking in a vintage store’s […]


Judith Leiber Disco Ball Minaudiere, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
The Judith Leiber Disco Ball Minaudiere is so discothèque-fabulous, we can hardly find the words.
Firstly, and most obviously, it’s a disco ball. Judith Leiber has a habit of making minaudieres in interesting shapes, and this Italian-made 3 1/2″H x 3 1/2″W x 3 1/2″D sparkler may be our favorite one yet.
Covered in crystal […]


Burberry Prorsum Laser Cut Suede Hobo

 
Found: A divine new handbag for fall. With its rich burgundy suede, belted drawstring-style top, and perforated laser cut body that mimics a check print, Burberry Prorsume’s Laser Cut Hobo hits a style home run for the season. I can just see myself pairing this with a cozy sweater and jeans, or better yet…a Burberry […]


Tania Dark Wood Clutch, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
It’s always fun to have a bag or two that stand out from the rest not because they’re over-the-top or obnoxious but because they’re different. Simple and different. This Tania Dark Wood Clutch by Glorinha Paranagua is just that. It’s straight forward, organic, but also very stylish and modern. Made of dark toned […]


Ale Feather Bracelet Pochette, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
This Ale Feather Bracelete Pochette by Raven Kauffman runs on the idea that your handbag can be an accessory in more ways than one — doing double duty as both bag and jewelry. It starts with an 18k gold plated bracelet (2 3/4″ opening) and finishes with a dangling calf pochette decorated with […]


Kristin Chenoweth Has Her Hands Full with Her Prada Purse

 
Actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth may have struck gold with her chic black Prada handbag, but I have to say the rest of her look is a bit of a mess - couldn’t someone give this gal a hand with her stuff? I’m not sure about the pink ruffled blouse of wild-lined jacket, but hey, […]


Tree Bucket Bag, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
I think I’ve said this before but sometimes a handbag makes “points” with me just by having an interesting name, and I think ‘Tree Bucket Bag‘ qualifies as interesting. Not sure how the name was inspired other than it certainly is bucket-shaped. Designed by Genevieve Jones those aren’t silver studs all over the […]


Lourdes & Madonna Hang Tight with Harajuku Lovers & Louis Vuitton Handbags

Lourdes Leon may be the second coming of Madonna, but that doesn’t mean the trend-setting tween doesn’t have her own unique views when it comes to handbags. Hence, her funky and age-appropriate Harajuku Lovers purse, which stands in stark contrast to mama Madonna’s refined Louis Vuitton monogram handbag. Who do you think has the better […]
