Drawing inspiration from the Vara Shoe designed by Ferragamo’s eldest daughter, the Miss Vara Shoulder Bag is just as classic and sophisticated.

What better handbag to feature on Christmas Day than one that looks like a glimmery, glitzy present?

Filed under: Handbags
The Anya Hindmarch Rollin’ Bag certainly has the look of a bag that’s meant for someone on the go. It takes one of the season’s most popular trends, biker chic, to a more delicate place with soft black leather and tiny, shiny, gold metal studs in a strict grid pattern. On the outside […]

Fendi Chef Boston Rose Zucca Satchel

It’s not every day I come across a Fendi purse that actually makes me want it. In fact, it’s, um, never. I’m just not usually a big fan.

Rodo Fan Crystal Clutch, Handbag of the Day

There’s something so romantic and feminine about anything fan-shaped, and that might be a big part of why I like this Fan Crystal Clutch by Rodo so much. Inspired by 1920s Art Deco, this clutch features luxe satin and crystals that fold and flow to accentuate the silhouette, with little else in the […]
