- Whiting & Davis Lotus Wristlet | Decorative Floral Mesh Clutch - 2009-11-09 14:32:03-05
I always look forward to the next Whiting & Davis bag I see. Noone else could do so many beautiful things with a simple metal mesh! This little wristlet is a more delicate version of the Whiting & Davis clutches. Using nothing more complicated than a gentle lotus flower pattern, the silver mesh stands in elegant [...]
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Wallet | Graphic Michaelangelo Cartoon Purse - 2009-11-09 16:17:34-05
Wow, what a blast from the past! This graphic wallet is enough to take us back to our childhood cartoons, whether for you or to treat the man in your life. There isn't much fancy to this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles nostalgic purse. IAfter all, it is simple in black leather, which adds quality to a [...]
- Chinese Laundry Emma Bucket Bag | Large and Slouchy Synthetic Leather Purse with Studs - 2009-11-09 21:46:48-05
When you're shopping for a decently sized handbag around the $100 mark, finding one made from genuine leather is beginning to be a rarity. There are a few exceptions to that, of course, but brands are mostly sticking to synthetics for that price range. Though a little disappointing, I suppose it's not entirely surprising considering the [...]
- Enter to Win a Charles David Giveaway at Purse Blog | Handbag, Shoes, and Gift Bag - 2009-11-10 00:38:42-05
Purse Blog is continually teaming up with fabulous designers and fashion gurus for fabulous giveaways. After recently picking out the simple but gorgeous Burberry Fielding Leather Tote for Ideeli's here-today-gone-tomorrow handbag contest, they're back at it again with a new collaboration. This time, however, the team is pairing with The Buzz Girls, a network of stylish gals [...]
- Anne Klein Nouveau Tote | Large Leather Handbag with Studded Details - 2009-11-10 01:05:42-05
With a smattering of modern studs, Anne Klein converts this rather plain tote into a contemporary fashion statement. Unlike many designers who seem to OD on the metal accents, Anne Klein keeps things subtle by placing the studs only at the top of the purse. She keeps us guessing with the mixture of brass and silver [...]
- Yves Saint Laurent Customizes Roady in Los Angeles and New York - 2009-11-10 02:05:11-05
Yves Saint Laurent's latest "It" bag, the Roady, shot to fame on the arms of glamorous celebs like Rihanna, Katy Perry, Kylie Minogue, and Leighton Meester. Now the in-demand purse will get a personalized makeover for shoppers in America's fashion capitals, Los Angeles and New York City. The Roady already comes in a variety of shapes [...]
- Anuschka Crsna Top Zip Satchel | Ebony Hand Painted Ethereal Butterfly Leather Purse - 2009-11-10 03:05:27-05
I must admit that Anuschka's famous hand painted purses have never really tickled my fancy. They always looked a little homespun and folky for me. But by moving from its traditional tan leather to dark ebony, the brand may have just won me over. A stunning example of the sophisticated new look is this Crsna Top [...]
- Betseyville Lucky Stripes Hobo | Large Animal Print Bag with Metallic Trim and Matching Pouch - 2009-11-10 16:35:12-05
Betsey Johnson appeals even more to the wild side than normal, if you can imagine, with this Betseyville Lucky Stripes Hobo. Instead of simply whimsical, cutesy, or retro like other styles from the brand, this handbag is exotic and dramatic. Forget subtle details, though Betsey Johnson isn't always known for that, the Lucky Stripes bag takes this design full [...]
- Mad Imports Ariel Clutch | Shaded Fold-Over Raffia Purse - 2009-11-10 17:32:56-05
Here we have yet another rather wonderful raffia purse from Mad Imports. Experts in raffia and other such eco-freindly materials, their purses tend towards interestingly combined colors and shades. This fold-over clutch is no different. The woven raffia weaves the blue and green shades together in an intricate wave, leading from the thin elegant base up towards the [...]
- Daisy Lowe and Lara Stone to Model for Upcoming Louis Vuitton Ad Campaigns - 2009-11-11 00:00:51-05
The news buzzing around Louis Vuitton's future advertising campaigns right now is that Madonna is out to make way for some fresh faces. The European style pre-fall starring with Missy Rayder were a hint of this change in direction, but the recently confirmed faces of the luxury brand are even more of a shift. Following in some [...]
- Anya Hindmarch Marano Purse | Elegant Gold Leather Box Clutch - 2009-11-11 01:05:32-05
Anya Hindmarch keeps it chic and simple with the stylish Marano clutch. The back to basics box design appears like polished metal from a distance, but it's actually made from gold leather. That should make it a little lighter to carry, and it's a good thing too because the Marano doesn't come with one of those [...]
- House of Dog Creates Eco-Friendly Dog Carriers and Pet Accessories - 2009-11-11 02:05:26-05
I must admit, I'm an old fashioned girl who believes a dog should either stay at home while you run your errands, or trot happily beside you on a leash. But if you insist on toting your pampered pooch in a handbag, the least you can do is opt for an eco-friendly dog carrier. House of [...]
- Ashley M Plaid Clock Bag | Red Tartan Tote Purse - 2009-11-11 03:05:34-05
There's no excuse for running late for your appointments when you carry this Ashley M Plaid Clock Bag. We expect quirky novelty bags from Ashley M, but this one is a little more stylish than many of the brand's creations. Red plaid reminds us of Burberry and other preppy, more luxurious labels. Although I doubt those [...]
- Ed Hardy Tiara Wristlet | Bling Gold and Leather Metallic Clutch - 2009-11-11 08:49:28-05
Every girl needs a little dose of bling in her life, and if you like gold metallic purses then this little leather wristlet may be just your cup of tea. Subtle is probably not the buzzword for this golden clutch. The metallic decorative print stands out dramatically against the gray background, and even though it is [...]
- Bally Cabala-E Traditional Tote | Spacious Slouchy Luxury Purse - 2009-11-11 16:22:33-05
This is a Bally bag that Bally can be proud of. As some of the most expensive and desirable purses on the market, Bally bags always ooze glamour and luxury - and this huge spacious tote is no exception. This soft leather hold-all is designed to last forever, from the quality leather to the artistic workmanship. [...]
- Moschino Beluga Shoulder Bag | Luxurious and Classic Pebbled Leather Handbag - 2009-11-11 17:10:21-05
I'll admit that I sometimes get a little mixed up about all of the different lines underneath luxury label Moschino. Not only is there the main brand but also Moschino Cheap & Chic and Love Moschino. Sometimes it can get a little confusing, but one thing I know for sure. I might love the chic styles [...]
- Experts Dish Out Bag and Shoe Advice on Episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" - 2009-11-11 23:33:30-05
Oprah Winfrey might be considered an expert on a variety of topics, but apparently she leaves the fashion advice to industry insiders. On a recent episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, the famous talk show host gathered a panel of fashion gurus to dish on how the right choice of handbags and shoes can take you [...]
- B. Makowsky Eden Shopper | Belted Leather Casual Carryall Bag - 2009-11-12 01:05:53-05
B. Makowsky is one of those rare designers who always seems to hit the mark. While his bags are never right for the red carpet or a glamorous night out, it's hard to resist them when you're looking for a casual everyday purse. With Christmas just around the corner, it seems appropriate to think about [...]
- Financial Crisis Forces Luella's Closure, Inspiring Twitter Fan Outpouring - 2009-11-12 02:05:36-05
Critical acclaim and a celebrity following are no insurance for surviving the global recession. Just ask Luella Bartley! The Designer of the Year at the 2008 British Fashion Awards has been forced to close down her Luella label following the loss of one of its main suppliers. Luella's Italian production company Carla Carini shut down last [...]
- Baby Phat Royal Status 4 Ring Satchel | Crown Motif Purse with Diagonal Pockets - 2009-11-12 03:05:29-05
There's just nothing subtle about a Baby Phat bag. The label divides opinion more than most with its busy and brash designs. From any other brand I'd gasp in horror at the Royal Status 4 Ring Satchel, but it's just what I'd expect from Baby Phat. The brown synthetic leather was probably conservative once. That is, [...]
- L.A.M.B Jean Large Bowler | Stylised Colorblock Patent Satchel - 2009-11-12 08:22:50-05
This colorblock approach is more and more becoming the signature style of the L.A.M.B designers. The Jean bowler makes great use of the patent panels, contrasting them with the metallic body and matt accents. Looks-wise, this design ticks all the boxes for adding texture, pattern and interest into the design. Whilst the bowler shape and black patent make [...]
- Harveys Seatbelt Wrislet | Eco-Friendly Woven Recycled Seatbelt Bag - 2009-11-12 16:04:44-05
Although I'm a big proponent of the eco-friendly movement and am all for the practice of using unexpected recycled products in fashion, I've never been a huge fan of the Harveys seatbelt bags. I can appreciate the product for a clever use of the material. However, like the Nahui Ollin candy wrapper bags, I can't help but sometimes see [...]
- Cynthia Vincent Simple Metallic Pouch | Disco-style Silver Purse - 2009-11-12 16:32:04-05
Is this is wallet, a coin purse or a clutch? Perhaps it is a little makeup bag, or simply a storage pouch? This square little purse is quite a mystery, and it is confusing me! Regarding looks, it is actually quite a nice break from the norm to see something this undecorated. The bright blue or [...]
- British Designer Giles Deacon Collaborates with Isklar Mineral Water for Limited Edition Tote Bag | Proceeds to Benefit Oxfam Charity - 2009-11-13 00:25:31-05
London-based fashion designer Giles Deacon has been impressing the critics since his debut in 2004 with a quirky mix of luxury quality and whimsical details. As he has worked his way into ready-to-wear apparel available at places like Barneys and Nordstrom, there have been a few collaborations along the way. Now he has teamed up for a [...]
- Baggallini Women's Bon Voyage Bagg | Small Affordable Nylon Organizer Travel Bag - 2009-11-13 01:05:29-05
Baggallini may not be trend setters, but you can always rely on the brand for practical purses. Baggallini don't create flashy bags, leaving the style to its exhaustive color range. You'll find traditional options like mushroom and black, more daring choices like leaf green and tomato red, and even a few wild animal prints! Personally I'd [...]
- Madonna New Face of Dolce & Gabbana Summer/Spring 2010 Advertisement - 2009-11-13 02:05:12-05
You just can't keep the queen down. She may have been dumped by Louis Vuitton for the much younger Lara Stone and Daisy Lowe, but Madonna's already found another modeling gig. The Material Mom will front Dolce & Gabbana's spring/summer 2010 campaign. Acclaimed photographer Steven Klein shot the ads in New York last week, and the [...]
- Baggu Lincoln Shopping Bag | Eco-Friendly Limited Edition President Purse - 2009-11-13 03:05:16-05
I normally throw my support behind any new eco-friendly bags, but I must admit that this Baggu line has me scratching my head. The brand has taken its popular reusable shopper and added a president. I'm not quite sure who would want to carry a shopper with the screen printed face of Abraham Lincoln on it, [...]
- Latico Bettina Slim Porter | Sophisticated and Affordable Ladies Briefcase - 2009-11-13 08:56:23-05
It is nice to come across a smart and attractive briefcase that doesn't cost the earth. At $138, this Latico Bettina handbag effectively combines style and functionality at a cost that many people can afford. Designed to work as a handbag as well as a briefcase, Latico have made this a slim and elegant handbag that [...]
- Guiseppe Zanotti Leather Clutch | Simple Diamante Square Purse - 2009-11-13 16:12:10-05
This Giuseppe Zanotti brown leather purse proves that you can have a bit of glitz and glamour in a purse without having to go over the top. Balancing the incredibly luxurious leather with a touch of crystal glamour requires some serious design expertise, as you don't want that incredibly supple leather to go unnoticed. I personally think [...]
- Hobo International Suzzette Satchel | Simple Black Leather Handbag with Dual Compartments - 2009-11-13 17:36:08-05
As far as black leather satchels go, this one is nearly as simple as they come. I wouldn't exactly call it as dull as dishwater, as they say, but there's really not much about it that jumps out as extremely interesting. Being a Hobo International design, you know that the Suzzette Satchel is going to be well-made [...]
- Win a Jalda Julie Foldover Handbag from Bag Bliss and Stefani Bags - 2009-11-13 18:04:43-05
Jalda's collection of super luxurious handbags is the stuff of a mid-range designer shopper's dream. With soft leathers and exotic textures like embossed ostrich, stingray, and eel skin for relatively reasonable costs, Jalda hits the right spot for a variety of women. Even if you can't afford a $350 price tag, however, you can attempt to win one of [...]
- Balenciaga Whistle Handbag | Sophisticated Red Lambskin and Exotic Leather Purse - 2009-11-14 01:05:02-05
Balenciaga breaks with tradition with this Whistle Handbag. The label's typical bold hardware and long tassels are gone, replaced with luxury leathers and a slouchy barrel shape. The name comes from the shiny engraved whistle which hangs from the bag. Unlike so many gimmicks, this small whistle is endearing rather than obnoxious. It makes me think [...]
- Louis Vuitton Donates Online Sales to American Red Cross Charity - 2009-11-14 02:05:25-05
The upcoming celebrity designer auction is just the start of Louis Vuitton's fundraising commitment to the American Red Cross. The luxury design house will donate 10% of this month's online sales of selected bags to the charity. The fundraising drive commemorates the 150th anniversary of Louis Vuitton's Asnieres workshop. This location was the label's only production [...]
- Steve Madden Cookie Wristlet | Long Studded Turquoise Clutch - 2009-11-14 12:31:15-05
Steve Madden goes more than a little bit disco with this brilliantly bright and studded wristlet. It is nice to see a wristlet that is a decent size. They tend to be tiny, and sometimes it is good to have one that can fit more than a little cash and a tiny phone. Even better, this studded [...]
- Charles David Zelda Clutch | Haircalf and Leather Handbag with Lizard Print - 2009-11-14 21:28:34-05
Charles David has an impressive selection of stylish shoes, but the brand's handbags make an equally dramatic statement and are worth considering if you're looking for shopping for quality in a mid-price range. The label is no stranger to animal print material, so this Zelda handbag with a leopard-printed haircalf inset doesn't surprise me one bit. [...]
- Bally Keli Hobo | Black Pleated Nappa Leather Handbag - 2009-11-15 01:05:01-05
Bally ups the sophistication factor of the traditional hobo with the Keli. The crescent shape and relaxed form are pure vintage hobo, but there's a certain chicness here missing from those classic purses. This one's much more uptown girl than flower child, making it a more versatile choice for most fashionistas. The nappa leather and pleats [...]
- Neiman Marcus Creates Ultimate Birthday Cake for Handbag Lovers - 2009-11-15 02:05:07-05
American up-market retail giant Neiman Marcus has created the ultimate birthday cake for any bag lover. This sinful bag-shaped cake is every bit as delicious as your favorite designer label purse, with its caramel toffee buttercream finish and chocolate buttercream zebra stripes and handles. Inside this yummy purse is pure chocolate. Yum! This cake is such a [...]
- Spiegel Decorative Handbag Pin | Sparkling Tweed Rosette Accessory - 2009-11-15 16:23:11-05
Speigal add to their comprehensive set of handbag designs with this cute and versatile tweed rosette. This little decorative pin is the perfect accessory for dressing up a simple handbag. Those old black bags that are stuffed in the back of the cupboard can be given a new lease of life with the simple pin addition [...]
- Coach Patent Glam Tote | Shiny Magenta Pink Handbag from Poppy Collection - 2009-11-15 21:16:53-05
Coach's Poppy Collection is all glitz, glam, and youthful designs. Although this patent leather Glam Tote isn't quite as bodacious as some of the sequined designs from the popular line, the shiny look fits right in with Poppy's signature style. The simple square-shaped silhouette of the Glam Tote is nothing extraordinary, to be sure. It's really [...]
- New Miu Miu Stage Bags for Resort 2010 Collection Includes Jewels and Quilting - 2009-11-15 22:04:25-05
Soft and squishy Nappa leather and unique patterns are nothing new to luxury label Miu Miu, but I'm not used to seeing much shine on their handbag designs. That, however, is not the case for the brand's recently unveiled Resort 2010 collection of purses. Forget patchwork and matelasse elements. This time it's about quilting and shiny jewels. The [...]
- Be & D Garbo Clutch | Studded Gray Leather Purse - 2009-11-16 01:05:43-05
Just in time to capitalize on the current taste for studs comes Be & D's reinvented 5th Anniversary Garbo collection. While the line features satchels and duffels, I think it works best on a smaller scale. This little clutch almost overdoses on studs, with small nailhead studs and larger spiked ones working together to create an [...]
- Prada Releases Retrospective Book Commemorating Three Decades of Fashion and Innovation - 2009-11-16 02:05:47-05
It's done fashion, architecture, art, and cinema. Now European design giant Prada will turn its hand to the printed page. The stylish handbag brand is set to release retrospective coffee table book looking back at its 30 years of design innovation. Simply titled Prada (what else?), this is no light read at a monster 706 pages. [...]
- 50 Unusually Bold and Bizarre Bags - 2009-11-16 03:00:53-05
To me, there's just something special about a high quality leather purse or bag. They are traditional, durable and never go out of style. However, not everyone is satisfied with commonplace purses and some like to carry standout handbags that are far from ordinary. Here's a look at 50 bags that stray off the beaten [...]
- 50 Unusually Bold and Bizarre Bags 11-20 - 2009-11-16 03:01:37-05
Ecofriendly Purse [Image Source] Some people rinse and recycle plastic bottles, but an Austrian Industrial Design had another idea. Miulein cut the bottoms off of two bottles, connected them with a zipper and made this sweet little green change purse. It's cute and you do your part to save the planet! When I think of this purse [...]
- 50 Unusually Bold and Bizarre Bags 21-30 - 2009-11-16 03:02:54-05
The $52k Bag [Image Source] This Louis Vuitton Tribute bag is made in France and is a patchwork mess of 14 Louis Vuitton bags. Louis Vuitton has definitely made a mark on the fashion industry, and many LV bags remain classics to this day. Somehow I don't imagine it to be the case with this one, despite [...]
- 50 Unusually Bold and Bizarre Bags 31-40 - 2009-11-16 03:04:15-05
Rubik's Cube Handbag [Image Source] The popularity of the Rubik's Cube has endured for decades. Many variations and sizes of the puzzle have been produced over the years and now you can show your love for the boxy classic with this purse. The colors are young and fun if you're looking for something spunky to spice up [...]
- 50 Unusually Bold and Bizarre Bags 41-50 - 2009-11-16 03:05:49-05
Candy Wrapper Bag [Image Source] This bag was made from candy wrappers that would have ended up in the landfill, which makes it not only super cute, but eco-friendly as well. It reminds us of the Capri Sun bag, but in a cute, pocket-sized coin purse version. It looks like there are many kinds of candy wrappers [...]
- Betsey Johnson Bowdacious Satchel | Feminine Suede North/South Carryall - 2009-11-16 03:05:58-05
With her signature feminine charm, Betsey Johnson transforms this fairly plain satchel bag into a deliciously girly accessory. It's that combination of basic design and just a little feminine flair which ensures that, unlike some other Betsey Johnson creations, this one doesn't go too far. A handful of dark hematite studs, softly twisted shoulder straps, and [...]
- Hype Jackie Weekend Bag | Spacious Top-Zip Formal Satchel - 2009-11-16 08:18:26-05
If you are heading away for the weekend, it is all too often the case that your clothes and belongings get relegated to that old carry-all that you used to use for sports when you were about 12. When space is necessary, however, there are plenty of options for keeping your fashion sense happy. This Hype Jackie [...]
