Long Live the Queen

As if it wasn’t enough to inject bags with Botox, Zagliani designer Mauro Orietti-Carella is now infusing his luxury ‘It’ bags with 18 karat gold! The aptly named ‘Queen of Barcelona‘ bag is a luxury lover’s dream. This slouchy satchel has python leather infused with 18 karat gold, is fully lined in suede, with wrapped rolled top handles and a puffy, quilted center ...

Guess Her Bag and Win Some Swag – Revealed!

Congrats to Minnie Z. from New Jersey who correctly identified Jennifer’s bag as the Valentino Couture Bag! Jennifer Hudson is quickly becoming a fashionista (starring in the Sex & the City movie helps I’m sure) to watch. While her fashion choices aren’t always on point, she does take risks and isn’t that what fashion is all about? Here she is spotted by the ‘razzi ...

No Strings Attached…

Rebecca Minkoff is a girl after my own heart. Her debut bag was called “The Morning After” Bag – who hasn’t been there and needed one of those? Now she’s back with this hot two-toned creation, the “No Strings” Nikki. A mix of whitewash leather and metallic gold trim, the “No Strings” looks just as carefree as the name implies. I love slouchy bags ...

Renaud Pellegrino’s Paris / New York Tote

Ok, I know the Fall Winter fashion season is almost over and everyone is looking forward to Spring, but this is one Fall Winter bag that is still a must-have. The Renaud Pellegrino Paris/New York Tote is a velvety purple suede satchel with buckled front pouched pockets, hidden side zip pockets and a slouchy shape. I love the richness of the color – it looks so regal – and the lush suede ...

A See-Through Goldenbleu

I’m not sure how I feel about transparent bags, but I do like this one from Goldenbleu. The Rebecca Transparent Bag, $335, is a charcoal gray tinted vinyl shoulder bag with patent leather trim on the edges and handles. At first glance, you can barely tell this bag is see-through. It almost looks like an entirely patent leather bag. I like the fact that it’s a darker color as opposed to ...

Haute or Not – Stella McCartney Metallic Patent Patchwork Tote

I’m typically not a huge fan of patchwork bags because they’re usually hideously ugly like this one and this one. But there’s something about this Metallic Patent Patchwork Tote ($1,195) by Stella McCartney that I kinda like. This flat tote has a cool mix of navy patent, blue, and metallic light and dark denim patches making up the body of the bag. The shape is a rounded tote with ...

More Leopard Print Cavalli. But It’s Not at H&M…

You might be mad that you missed out on all the Roberto Cavalli goodies at H&M but you can still score some leopard-print Cavalli, at regular prices, of course. The Roberto Cavalli Canvas leopard shopper ($975) will satisfy your Cavalli and animal print fixes for a long time. Leopard print canvas is trimmed in dark leather with double rolled handles, top zip closure and a gold and crystal RC ...

Haute Handbags at Hayden Harnett

Hayden Harnett has been one of my favorite designers for the simple fact that they seem to churn out new handbag designs at an incredible rate! Every time I check out the site, I see about three or four new bags I want to buy! But I also love HH because their bags are always amazingly well-designed and well-made. Their bags always have that cool modern vintage feel and seem to evoke the reaction of ...

Kate Spade’s Modern Classic ‘Belle Isle Francis’ Handbag

If you prefer handbags that stray away from fleeting trends and stick to classic design, then Kate Spade’s bags are perfect for you. But the Belle Isle Francis ($825) is an atypical Kate Spade bag and I absolutely love it. It’s a particularly gorgeous hobo made of suede with a metallic stone print overlay. The unstructured shape is great for those who carry a lot (like me), but the short ...

Pucci’s Got Wood

I’m not a huge fan of wood paneling since it conjures up tacky images of the 70′s and Chrysler Minivans, but I’m in love with these Wood Clutches from Pucci. From the Fall/Winter 2007 collection, designer Matthew Williamson continues his ‘return to the ’70s’ theme with wood accents in the Pucci accessories line. Anyway, back to these clutches – how cute are ...

Christian Louboutin’s Metallic ‘Kangaroo’ Bag

If you can’t get enough of Christian Louboutin shoes, then you will definitely love his handbags! Most designers excel at either shoe design or handbag design, (usually not both), but Louboutin’s handbags do not disappoint. Just as luxurious as his signature footwear, Christian Louboutin’s Metallic ‘Kangaroo’ Bag (which is such a weird name for such a lustworthy bag!) ...

Have A Heart

Even though I prefer luxury, I love finding adorable and inexpensive bags that are chic enough to satisfy a handbag elitist like myself. Erin Fetherston’s Heart Handbag is one of those. Direct from her new line at Target, Fetherston’s bag is whimsical and feminine, much like her design sensibility. It’s not necessarily meant to be carried as an ‘everyday’ bag, but it ...
