Shiny Media — Wed, 11 Apr 2007 11:36:00 +0000

A new label to the Bag Lady pages, Maxwell Scott is an Italian design house which claims to have over 500 years in traditional tanning methods on its side.

Marc Jacobs’ ‘Debbie’ and ‘Siouxsie’ bags

Shiny Media — Wed, 04 Apr 2007 10:15:00 +0000

I’m sure every gal has had the conversation which revolves around ‘who’d you be if you were famous?’, in which you prattle off the names of several famous starlets you have a burning desire to replace. My top two would be Siouxsie Sioux and Debbie Harry, of the Banshees and Blondie fame respectively. The fact that my favourite designer, Marc Jacobs…

Henry Cuir’s ‘Eucalyptus’ frame bags

Shiny Media — Tue, 03 Apr 2007 15:21:00 +0000

Henry Cuir is mostly famous on this blog for producing the ‘Puzzle’ tote, which received a favourable response when it was featured as last week’s Yay or Nay handbag.

Yay or Nay Wednesday

Shiny Media — Wed, 28 Mar 2007 16:37:00 +0000

p>
Amber is off getting married and on her honeymoon for the next few weeks, which means the Yay or Nay feature is back in your Bag Lady editor’s hands. This week I’ve chosen a particularly sturdy looking messenger bag which wouldn’t look out of place on a Birkenstock-wearing mother, but what I want to know is, does the colour combination work? I always try to avoid wearing black with brown, as well, it makes me frown, but what about you, does it work on this satchel? As usual, I’ll reveal all next week!

If you’re wondering about last week’s Yay or Nay bag, it was the Henry Cuir ‘Puzzle’ tote, and is available for $995 from Barneys.
