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 […]

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. […]

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.

Dita Shoulder Bag, Handbag of the Day

Filed under: Handbags
It’s like a big rainbow disco ball! I love it, although honestly I don’t think I’d ever have the guts to wear it. It’s the Dita Shoulder Bag by Sonia Rykiel and it’s made of luxe black calfskin suede that’s studded with hundreds (even thousands maybe?) of multi-colored crystals. It also has chain […]


Balenciaga Lattice City Classic Tote

Balenciaga had the big ‘It’ bag a few seasons ago with their motorcycle-inspired styles. This season’s City collection is a ramped up version of that. This particular handbag features contrastic criss-crossed leather in a lattice pattern. The design could be said to evoke the lights of a tall skyscraper, or perhaps the crossword puzzle of […]
