Fendi Mia Dégradé Lambskin Leather Shopper

I like the layering of colors on the Fendi Mia Dégradé Lambskin Leather Shopper, but the colors themselves? The combination of fleshtones with the lambskin texture just gives me the creeps. Rather than a classic investment bag, it registers as Buffalo Bill’s pièce de résistance. I do support the general structure of the bag; it’s […]


Coach Madison Patent Sophia Satchel

I’m always a little embarrassed when I’m drawn to a purse because of a visceral “oooh, shiny!” reaction, but what can I say? Sometimes the girly girl comes out. The Coach Madison Patent Sophia Satchel goes beyond just shiny and goes full-tilt femme with its outrageous magenta shade, and I have to say, it calls […]


Prada Fuchsia Striped Canvas Covered Pushlock Clutch

With the nautical craze (which it seems may never subside), there are striped handbags a plenty, but mixing some fuchsia in with those stripes really adds some punch. This Prada Fuchsia Striped Canvas Covered Pushlock Clutch has the right amount of oomph for a fun summer bag, and I love that the bolder colors won’t […]


Burberry Metallic Leather Small Wristlet Clutch

Sure, Burberry is recognized for its iconic check print, but the label is no slouch in other departments. This Metallic Leather Small Wristlet Clutch is a smart, practical little piece that serves as a lightweight and chic alternative to the everyday shoulder bag. Though I tend to prefer hefty bags in general, I’m always open […]


Balenciaga Papier A4 Animal Print Haircalf Tote

I honestly can’t even remember the last time I cared about a Balenciaga purse. Blasphemy, I know, but I’ve been over the classic moto bag for years and am not crazy about the label’s habit of staying so consistently faithful to one particular look. So it was with great pleasure that I took a peek […]


Fendi Jeweled Stingray Clutch

Now this is luxury. Fendi held nothing back in designing its Jeweled Stingray Clutch, a little number that makes a strong case for sea animal chic. This, by the way, is not something that normally crosses our minds – “exotic” skins usually involve reptiles, after all – but this sleek, heavily textured clutch makes the […]


Gucci 1973 Mini Leather Shoulder Bag

There is no way to go wrong with the Gucci 1973 collection. Inspired by archives from the storied label that date back to 1973, the collection is rife with “forever” bags that you’ll carry for years. The Gucci 1973 Mini Leather Shoulder Bag is an exceptional choice for women who prefer something exceptionally small. Awash […]


Gucci ‘Marrakech’ Large Tote

Start stashing away your daily coffee money and in just under a year and a half or so this remarkable Gucci ‘Marrakech’ Large Tote could be yours! How’s that for a savings plan? Alright, I’ll agree that it’s a bit unrealistic to go without coffee for that long but this purse is well worth it. […]


Prada Madras Woven Top-Handle Satchel

The gorgeous Prada Madras Woven Top-Handle Satchel was a huge celebrity favorite during spring, and it’s poised to enjoy more of the same popularity come fall. While one of spring’s more popular varieties showcased a vibrant orange, this interpretation is woven with burgundy, a hue obviously fit for the latter part of the year. Tight […]


Louis Vuitton Trapezio Art Deco

You know it’s got to be worth a second glance if Sarah Jessica Parker wore it. The actress was spotted carrying the berry version of the Louis Vuitton Trapezio Art Deco, a wondrously artsy bag that incorporates a semi-teardrop silhouette with a sultry, slinky chain and a geometrically complex flap. This color, called Vieux Rose, […]
