The Versace Square Leather Clutch is a bit understated when you think of the world of Versace anything, especially their handbags. Typically adorned with tons of gold, brocade, etc. Versace bags are definitely for the gal who lives a luxurious lifestyle. The bags can’t take significant wear and tear, but can look amazing on a yacht or private plane. The Square Leather Clutch is a bit more for real life, but with the $1,350 price tag, I’m not sure how ...
The Heloise Patent Satchel is a great bag for work. The ladylike and structured body works well with suits, skirts, and anything tailored. Available in bordeaux and black at saks.com, the Heloise Patent Satchel is a smaller take on Chloe’s standard Heloise bag. First available in leather, it’s now arrived in patent, which is a trend that is staying strong for spring 2008. The modern edge to the bag is the ribbed sides, which look great in ...
I like this tote bag a lot, but I feel it’s for a more mature version of the typical Juicy Couture girl. The Smart Beach Tote retails for $250 at shopbop.com, and it’s the chic girl’s answer to the typical straw bag. Gold chain link handles make up a portion of the straps, and finished off with a cocoa brown leather. There IS a bit of contrast stitching on this purse, and that’s what makes me like it for ...
Oh my. Strangely, looking at this clutch rendered in bright red snakeskin in the likeness of full, pouty lips, I am at a loss for words. It’s one of those pieces that is either terribly brilliant or absolutely horrendous and I can’t decide which one it is. Lulu Guinness is not known for her shy designs and this is a perfect example of her style. This purse can be fun, upbeat and off-kilter, but I get ...
Kate Beckinsdale isn’t written about a ton when it comes to fashion. Sometimes we sneak pictures of her and her daughter in Us Weekly, but Beckinsdale is usually working out and in yoga gear. Here she’s partying with her Valentino Historie, no less. Now I’m not a huge fan of this bag in the first place (the braided handles, the gaudy exterior…it’s a little much), but the fact that she’s taking it out at night? Major no-go. I’m all for ...
Leather Burberry bags either kill or don’t even get your palette wet, and unfortunately, this one does the latter. While it is made of soft, pebbled leather, the purse leaves a lot to be desired as far as design. It’s simply too boring and lackluster for the $1,095 that Burberry is asking, and with mass retailers using high end materials, you’re likely to find something just as nice from Club Monaco or Banana Republic. The Burberry Ashbury is ...
It’s official. In the same way I tried to will away skinny jeans and the return of the black tights circa 1980, I must now submit to the fashion powers that be on the staying power of the mega designer oversized clutch that is being carried by mega stars. I love fashion and style and try not to hide from new trends, but I also like function and I must be honest, clutches do not carry well in ...
It took a bit of time for the giant hardware to grow on me, when it debuted a few seasons ago. Since then, I, and many other women around the globe, have converted into giant hardware lovers. There’s just something about the large metal pieces that resemble thimbles that add just the perfect amount of ooh and ahh to the Balenciaga motorcycle bags that we already know and love. And I’m guessing Nikki Hilton feels the same way. This isn’t ...
A little mellow even for a handbag so shiny, Marc Jacobs’ Patent East West Tote is really fairly simple and acceptable for everyday wear. It makes a soft statement with its cream color, but the large tonal studs add an edgy vibe. That said, this has a tendency to look a bit dull in person. A dash of color would work wonders for this monochromatic purse. It’s roomy and practical, but there are so many other choices out there ...
Calling to mind images of Laura Ashley dresses and picnics in romantic fields, the Kate Spade Miramar Alison has a sort of country-ish sensibility about it. Despite the fact that it also somehow resembles a lunchbox, it projects charm with its kelly green hue, straw-like exterior and printed cotton interior. Very feminine and dainty, it’s not exactly practical, but it has a summery quality that might make it the perfect accessory to pair with - what else? - your long, ...
When I think Tumi, I think carry-on luggage. Imagine my surprise when I saw this cute tote peeping out at me from the Tumi website! This patent purse is made of Italian calf leather and lined in suede, and trimmed in a contrasting vachetta leather. While no status bag, this Tumi Palm Beach Tote is practical (expect any less from Tumi?) and fashion-minded without being conspicuous — perfect for the traveling fashionista. I’m impressed that Tumi ...
Bear with me whilst I go on my clutch kick, will ya? A girl can never have enough clutches! This Franchi Megan Silk Clutch is so perfectly feminine, it makes me want to don precious pink tulle and look for my glass slippers! The shape is elegant in its rounded curves and the restrained use of subtle gold trim is a perfect compliment for this palest of pink fabric. The soft folds in the silk adds ...
