- Marni Violet Suede Frame Clutch | Attention-Grabbing Ultra-Bright Blue Suede Clutch - 2009-03-09 12:30:48-04
There's nothing like an super luxurious clutch in an eye-popping hue to perk up an old LBD. Marni brings a fun, irreverent touch to this evening wear style. The best thing about this bag is that it looks and feels soft to the touch, but is actually a lot more structurally sound than your average clutch. [...]
- Bulga Butterfly Shoulder Bag | Blue-Green Leather Studded Handbag - 2009-03-09 21:40:22-04
Bulga is a brand that generally offers quality leather bags at a slightly more affordable price than some designers. Affordable, though, is a relative word when it comes to fashion. This Butterfly Shoulder Bag, for example, retails for $465, which is less than so many big name purses but still a tad pricey for many shoppers. [...]
- Beth Ditto of Gossip at Paris Fashion Week Shows - 2009-03-09 22:41:48-04
We recently brought you news of punk singer Beth Ditto's first foray into fashion with a line for clothing brand Evans. Ditto must be brushing up on her style knowledge because she's been spotted at Paris Fashion Week. The celebrity-studded runway shows like Stella McCartneyand Jean Paul Gaultier should seem like a natural place for an up-and-coming star [...]
- Be & D Belleville Hobo | Exotic Yellow Eelskin Boho Bag - 2009-03-10 03:00:38-04
The Belleville is Be & D's most popular hobo bag. The leather version is a classic, but to really stand out from the crowd this summer I prefer this fun yellow eelskin variety. Traditionalists may want to steer clear of this sunny fabric, but I find it irresistible. A more conservative black or chocolate brown would [...]
- Cynthia Vincent Expands Fashion Empire with Exotic Handbag Collection This Fall - 2009-03-10 03:18:07-04
Californian designer Cynthia Vincent has made a splash with her pretty and practical fashions and stylish, yet comfortable, shoes. In fall she'll release her first handbag collection, and it stays true to the Cynthia Vincent ethos. "I wanted to make bags that are comfortable, easy and useful," Ms Vincent said in a statement. "The kind of [...]
- Celine Bittersweet Hobo Bag | Chic Luxury Leather Handbag with Tassels - 2009-03-10 04:15:29-04
In the Bittersweet hobo bag, Celine has created an accessory that's breathtaking in its simplicity. The calfskin exterior features a subtle grain. Complementary patent leather grooves and topstitching add texture without undermining the purse's chic look. A long decorative tassel is elegant rather than whimsical, thanks to the small Celine nameplate and cylindrical bauble hanging from [...]
- Christian Louboutin Pillow Leather Clutch | Edgy And Glamorous Champagne Leather Clutch - 2009-03-10 15:43:06-04
Christian Louboutin is like the patron saint of sexy glamour. Between his sky high stilettos and his ultra-luxe handbags, the man has the market cornered on covetable accessories. This champagne leather clutch isn't really what I expect of Louboutin, but it's not entirely out of character, either. The Pillow Leather Clutch just has a lot more [...]
- Furla Elisabeth Medium Shoulder Hobo | Ostrich Embossed Leather Handbag - 2009-03-10 20:49:30-04
Ostrich is one of the big trends for the season, and lots of designers are taking advantage of the popularity of the luxury material by offering more affordable versions. Whereas true ostrich leather handbags can run upwards of $5,000, ostrich-embossed leather is a better option for getting the same look for a lot less. This Furla [...]
- Net-a-Porter's Online Magazine Helps You Find the Perfect Bag - 2009-03-10 22:07:01-04
Net-a-Porter is known for their designer fashions, and now we even get to look forward to a discount version of the popular site. While we wait for theOutnet.com to launch, get a head start on some spring shopping with Net-a-Porter's Bag Guide. This short but nifty guide lays out some of the season's various trends from [...]
- Cole Haan Laury Satchel | Medium Patent Leather Textured Purse - 2009-03-11 02:05:40-04
Laury is one of those names that makes me think of men in their sixties wearing plaid. It may have vintage looks, but there's nothing dated about Cole Haan's Laury satchel. The angular shape and patent leather is a little bit retro, but that's offset by the Laury's fun striped texture. This cross-hatched design is best [...]
- Artist Destroys Louis Vuitton Alma Bags for Sculpture - 2009-03-11 03:05:12-04
Is that the sound of Louis lovers the world over weeping? The financial crisis has left most of us cursing our empty wallets, yet R. Lloyd Ming has destroyed $12, 000 worth of Louis Vuitton Alma bags in the name of art! The New York-based artist purchased a dozen of the four-figure purses from Louis Vuitton's [...]
- Devi Kroell Accordian Shoulder Bag | Expandable Luxury Nappa Leather Handbag - 2009-03-11 04:05:17-04
Devi Kroell offers up the best of both worlds with its Accordian bag. At its smallest, the Accordian is a cute box purse. Fans of the oversized trend may feel they need to scale back to carry it compact, but most of us will see this as a manageable day purse. But the Accordion doesn't forget [...]
- Kate Spade Paola Elba Bag | Croc-Embossed Patent Leather Clutch and Shoulder Handbag - 2009-03-11 15:39:53-04
At first glance, I couldn't decide whether or not I wanted to review this bag for two reasons. Mostly I was hesitant because it's been out for a little while but also because I think the croc-embossed texture has been overdone. However, after looking a little more at this Kate Spade clutch, I couldn't pass it [...]
- Valentino to Appear on "The Martha Stewart Show" - 2009-03-11 21:29:51-04
It doesn't strike me as odd to hear that fashion designer Valentino will be visiting New York City next week. What puzzles me a little is the fact that he'll be in town to film an appearance on The Martha Stewart Show. Sure, Martha has had all kinds of celebrities on her show, from Jennifer Garner to Conan O'Brien, doing [...]
- Diane Von Furstenberg Raquel Handbag | Drop-Bottom Boarding Bag with Crocodile Embossed Trim - 2009-03-12 02:05:34-04
Diane Von Furstenberg knows what girls on the go want, and she delivers another functional travel bag in the Raquel. It's just a shame that along the way, the designer forgot her trademark style. All the right elements are there. The trapezoidal shape has a fun retro feel, and the crocodile embossed leather trim helps to [...]
- MCM Launches American Comeback with New York Luggage and Handbags Boutique - 2009-03-12 03:05:47-04
MCM were one of the must-have brands in the 1980s, but they've been absent from the American fashion scene for a number of years. Now the accessories label is launching a comeback starting with a brand new store at The Plaza in New York City. The brand left the United States in a shroud of secrecy [...]
- Diesel Surreal Bon Ton Kelly Clutch | Original Oversized Nappa Leather Purse - 2009-03-12 04:05:03-04
Like it or loathe it, there's no ignoring the Surreal Bon Ton Kelly clutch from Diesel! The name isn't the only thing that's big. At 16 inches by 16 inches, this takes the oversized clutch trend to the extreme. A big purse isn't a bad thing, but when its design is as busy as this is [...]
- Cole Haan Plaid Genevieve Tote | Black and White Woven Leather Handbag - 2009-03-12 13:04:10-04
The Genevieve weave is a big line for Cole Haan, which is why they've expanded it to include a patterned version for variety. Though it's the same line that includes the Triangle Tote, I have to admit that I wouldn't have ever paired that bag with this one shown here if I hadn't seen the name first. This plaid [...]
- Lanvin Amalia Small Shoulder Bag | Luxe and Sophisticated Cream Quilted Leather Shoulder Bag - 2009-03-12 17:44:25-04
Lanvin is known for creating sophisticated, feminine, heirloom-quality garments, and their accessories line lives up to their reputation. The Amalia combines classic elements with a modern design perspective to create a bag that is gorgeous and versatile. This bag harkens back to the popularity of the Chanel caviar bags of the early 90's. But, Lanvin has [...]
- Hayden-Harnett Opens New Store in New York City - 2009-03-12 21:21:30-04
I seems that the fashion industry recession isn't slowing down the designing duo sensation of Hayden-Harnett. The popular brand has released some seriously stylish handbags since they established in 2005 and even joined forces with Target for an affordable special edition collection. Now Hayden-Harnett is gearing for expansion with their opening of a second retail store. The [...]
- EcoBags Lightweight Tote Bag | Environmentally Friendly Organic Canvas Handbag - 2009-03-13 02:05:45-04
EcoBags classic organic tote bag just got better. It's now available in a new lightweight version, perfect for those long days at the mall or weekly grocery visits. It might not be as heavy as the average, but that doesn't mean it's a lightweight. This tote has been double stitched for added strength, so feel free [...]

- Elie Tahari Zoe Satchel | Medium Patent Leather Luxury Handbag - 2009-03-13 04:05:33-04
With a dash of retro styling and some luscious leather, Elie Tahari has created the sort of satchel I can imagine carrying for years to come. Meet the Zoe. Named after Eli's daughter, the Zoe is created from luxurious patent leather. Patent can tend to appear overly glossy and a little cheap, but this leather's natural [...]
- LeSportsac Sofia Crossbody | Mini Handbag with Adjustable Strap - 2009-03-13 12:00:11-04
This small crossbody bag is a great hands-free solution when you need to grab a few things and head out. LeSportsac usually gets it right when it comes to practical solutions, but I always look forward to the cute, quirky patterns they add for style. The amount of storage is definitely not the major draw with [...]
- Studs are a Major Trend for Accessories this Spring - 2009-03-13 12:30:45-04
As the spring season rapidly approaches, we're starting to see the newest trends emerge. One of the major frontrunners of the bunch is the addition of studs to all kinds of accessories. This rock-and-roll hardware is appearing on everything from handbags to shoes in every style. Of course, we saw a glimpse of this even before [...]
- Furla Carmen Zipper Shopper | Large Casual Leather Handbag - 2009-03-14 02:05:21-04
At once edgy and casual, Furla's Carmen Zipper Shopper can effortlessly add style to your everyday wardrobe. The buttery soft patent leather gives the Carmen its unmistakable slouch and shine. The shoulder straps thread through grommets at the top of the purse like a drawstring, enhancing the Carmen's casual appeal. But it's not all relaxed. The [...]
- Handbags Through History | Fun Trivia Facts You Didn't Know About Purses - 2009-03-14 03:05:54-04
So you know your Prada from your Proenza Schouler, but do you really know everything there is to know about handbags? Here are some fun purse facts that they didn't teach you in school! The first documented use of handbags comes from 14th century hieroglyphics. But these primitive purses were a long way from our girly [...]
- L.A.M.B. Signature Cambridge Satchel | Large Coated Canvas Handbag - 2009-03-14 12:00:20-04
The Cambridge Satchel is easily recognizable as a L.A.M.B. handbag if you're familiar with the brand. It is similar to several other L.A.M.B. designs like the Galloway and Hopewell with a uniquely printed pattern and classic shape. One of the signature features is the racing stripe running down the front and back of the satchel. The [...]
- Chloè Kathleen Shoulder Bag | Sleek 70's Grey Leather Shoulder Bag - 2009-03-14 20:38:59-04
Chloe's Spring accessory line is replete with smooth leathers, slightly off-kilter neutral tones, and 70's references. The Kathleen Shoulder Bag fits into the look of the line beautifully. The grey tone of the leather of the bag is neutral, but not boring. It looks amazing up against the gold hardware, which really pops with its bold [...]
- Sales Double for New Designer Christian Siriano - 2009-03-15 00:44:31-04
It's another fashion success story despite the industry's suffering financial situation. Project Runway ingenue Christian Siriano has doubled his sales since last year and even got several more retail stores to carry his creations. My guess is that his line of affordable but fierce handbags and shoes for Payless helped boost his popularity not to mention a budget-friendly image. If [...]
- Givenchy Military Satchel | Black Leather Studded Designer Handbag - 2009-03-15 02:05:25-04
Girly girls need not apply. This Givenchy Military Satchel keeps the frills to a minimum for a no fuss look. It's big, black, and boxy. Gold studs give the black leather a dangerous air like a motorcycle jacket. But unlike Nicky Hilton's Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag, there are no tassels to soften the look. Just like the girls [...]
- Jimmy Choo Large Robin Leather Bag | Large Bright Yellow Leather And Elaphe Snakeskin Designer Bag - 2009-03-15 13:54:15-04
Okay, I won't lie to you. This is the kind of object I see sitting on the store shelf, and I think to myself, "Jimmy Choo, what are you thinking? This thing is hideous." And then some uptown girl in a DVF dress and huge shades breezes past me looking all relaxed and fabulous, and [...]
- Diesel Planet Fashion Store Opens on New York's Fifth Avenue - 2009-03-15 20:44:38-04
There was only one moniker appropriate for Diesel's 20, 000 square feet New York store. The massive flagship outlet is fittingly named Diesel Planet. The brand's Diesel and Diesel Black Gold collections will be shown over three floors. The label claims to offer more than 700 different denim styles and washes on every level. These famed [...]
- Furla Ninfea Grande Shopper | Large Leather Handbag with Resin Chain - 2009-03-15 21:44:03-04
If you're going to get a large leather shopper, it might be a good idea to look for one in a neutral color so it won't overwhelm an outfit due to its sheer size. Of course, sometimes a big bright or patterned bag like the Cole Haan Genevieve Plaid is great for spicing up a [...]
- Hayden-Harnett Wyeth Tote | Fringed Leather Handbag with Front Pockets - 2009-03-16 02:05:16-04
Fringe is big this season, but it's so easy for the trend to look overdone. The Wyeth tote from Hayden-Harnett keeps it simple, so you'll appear more city slicker than rodeo clown. The side fringes give the Wyeth a relaxed feel which is a little Western and a little boho-chic. But this isn't one of those [...]
- Chanel Classical Guitar Released | Beautiful, But Overpriced, Designer Musical Instrument - 2009-03-16 03:05:57-04
For the Chanel lover who has everything comes this designer classical guitar. We first saw this baby draped across the flamenco-inspired models of Chanel's spring/summer 09 show in Paris. Now the average fashion lover can own one, so long as they have £4,000 to spare! If we ignore the extravagant cost, this acoustic instrument is a tempting [...]
- Isaac Mizrahi Doctor Bag | Elegant Leather Sleek Purse - 2009-03-16 04:05:47-04
Doctor bags tend to be bulky affairs that we could easily imagine our own M.D. carrying on a house call. But Isaac Mizrahi has given the genre an elegant twist with this chic and sleek doctor. The traditional size is there, but it's a lot slimmer than we're used to. That gives this doctor bag a [...]
