Maybe all you have to keep yourself warm this Valentine’s are your sweaters. I’m sorry, that was depressing. You also have your bags! Put your two hands together and hold this Sweater-Knit bag by Gerard Darel.
In gray or natural, this large shoulder bag is made of 50% wool, 50% acrylic. Sized 15.75″ l x 12″ h, this designer bag costs $368 at Neiman Marcus .com.
Whether you have a sweetheart (& his loaner sweater) or just family & friends and your own fashionista wardrobe, this warm sweater bag is perfect for the wintry season. I’m snatching one up, perhaps on a lonely tomorrow night.

It’s hard to find pictures of purses at Luella’s Fall 2007 runway show, but I found one of my favorite via In My Bag. This bag in the family of Giselle, except with side belts instead of multiple full-width ones, is a new classic and one I’m really interested in. I can’t wait for it to come out for the Fall (boo hoo), in a more affordable leather, of course, and then to hopefully go on sale. Of course, if my prediction is right, this bag will have IT status – or at least it should.
It’s a bag with classy style for anyone in a tote shape with flap, lizard skin as on the runway, and what seem like two large tassels on front. Quite yummy.
Footnote: What is that which appears on this model’s feet???

From resort right through Spring and Summer, Burberry offers a cute little (well, big) plaid check satchel with white leather trim and rope detail. Measuring 14″ x 8″ x 7″ with shoulder handles, the breezy beauty plops down on the counter with a large $890 pricetag. But it’s so worth it with the details including others such as bias check print and three outer pockets. This cute bag isn’t a practical steal, but it’s luxe and fun.

One of the spanking-new Coach silhouettes for 2007 (since the Fall, this has been a big growing time for Coach) is the Andrea Satchel in the Hamptons collection.
It’s medium-sized with a rectangular shape, contrast stitching and totally modern details. Studs, lots of stitching and great side decoration make up the style’s individual look, with tassels on one gusset and a dog-leash clip attaching the top zip closure to the bag (genius idea!).
In brass hardware, also with a brass lozenge hangtag, the Andrea comes in black, white, cognac brown and a dark olive. At 13.25″ l x 8.25″ h x 7″ w, the new favorite from Coach comes in at $598.
