Fendi Canvas Straw Detail Shopping Tote
Colorful handbags are everywhere right now, but I’m taking a moment to appreciate the subdued shades offered up in this Fendi Canvas Straw Detail Shopping Tote. It doesn’t have the “look at me” quality a lot of screaming bright bags are boasting right now, yet the rainbow of more muted tones make this bag far […]
Z Spoke Zac Posen Top Handle Satchel, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
The Z Spoke Zac Posen Top Handle Leather Satchel is a basic black that’s perfect for any time of year at any time of day and for almost any occasion. It comes in other colors but I prefer the black by a long shot. It’s simple, it’s classic, and it’s a little chunky-cute. […]
Burberry Small Transparent Trim Tote
Oh, good – another bag to add to my ever-growing list of most-wanted Burberry accessories. (I’m also seriously lamenting the fact that I didn’t get my hands on the fab Kate Middleton trench coat.) This Small Transparent Trim Tote could be considered a consolation prize, though. It shakes up the classic check print with bands […]
Book of the Month "Emanuelle" Frame Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
The Kate Spade New York Book of the Month “Emanuelle” Frame Clutch blends fashion with culture with romance to create a simple but surprisingly bold accessory. It’s hard for anything with prominent letters or words not to catch the eye but this one does it in a pretty and very feminine way in […]
Perlee Small Beaded Cross-Body Bag, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Intricate beadwork like this always comes off as so wonderfully earthy and luxe at the same time — not something that’s easy to do. This cute little number is the Perlee Small Beaded Cross-Body Bag by Paul & Joe. It has a multicolor beaded “festival” print with tassels everywhere — little beaded ones […]
Lanvin Amalia Trousse Quilted Leather Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Lanvin redoes their iconic Amalia bag this time as the Amalia Trousse Quilted Leather Clutch. I can’t decide if it looks more like a makeup bag or a sexy boudoir-inspired an evening accessory but either way it features a large-pattern quilted raspberry leather body with pink satin trim and a combination of silver […]
Beirn Jenna Watersnake Tote, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Indulge both your love of exotic skins and of pretty spring pastels with Beirn Jenna’s Watersnake Tote. Looking a little like a hobo (which makes it more versatile) it’s made of genuine watersnake leather and features double top handles/shoulder straps, snap-top closure, a fully lined interior with both zippered and pouch pockets, and […]
Miu Miu Appliqued Metallic Leather Clutch, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
This Miu Miu Appliquéd Metallic Leather Clutch takes “rockstar” to a very literal level with large overlapping stars in gold and black layered on silver. I don’t think I’d take the recommendation and wear it with a busy black and white starry dress (a simple LBD would be much better) but if you’re […]
Gold: How to Shine in Style
Filed under: Apparel, Handbags, Jewelry, Shoes
Gold is a color that exudes opulence and contributes sophistication to an outfit. Whether its packaged through jewelry, a handbag or a piece of clothing, a touch of gold can instill elegance without being ostentatious.
As with any prominent color or print, to maximize its impact and make a fashionable yet […]
