New at BagBunch: Fred Perry Striped Bowler | Simple Red Classic Sports Bag

Hi mary,

Check out the latest handbag fashion news and review at BagBunch.com:
  1. Fred Perry Striped Bowler | Simple Red Classic Sports Bag - 2009-12-21 17:46:23-05
    Whilst there are plenty of brilliant and fashionable bowlers on the market, it seems that sometimes we forget that these bags were really designed to be functional and perfect for transporting all your sports equipment. This Fred Perry bowler goes back to basics, with a traditional pattern and notable lack of embellishments. It is also astoundingly [...]
  2. Matt & Nat Sade Japanese Paper Clutch | Contemporary All-Vegan Bag - 2009-12-21 18:46:37-05
    This is one fold-over style clutch that doesn't convert to a tote bag, but I doubt that anyone will feel they're missing out on that feature with the Matt & Nat Sade. The designer label's signature Japanese Paper material is made from all-vegan materials and gives this clutch bag a distinct contemporary style. The crinkled texture [...]
  3. Founders of Designer Label Be & D Part Ways | Be Inthavong Leaves Company - 2009-12-21 22:20:12-05
    Well, it isn't the first fashion industry break-up and surely won't be the last. Since first teaming up to start designer handbag label Be & D back in 2004, co-founders Be Inthavong and Steve Dumain have decided to go their separate ways. "It has been an incredible six years with Be & D, but Steve [D] and [...]
  4. Jessica Simpson Rumor Satchel Bag | Large Wicker Textured Synthetic Bag - 2009-12-22 01:05:42-05
    The Rumor satchel from Jessica Simpson is the ultimate illusionist. It's masquerading as a woven satchel, but it's actually just a textured synthetic. The effect is quite striking from a distance though, and perhaps just as fascinating up close when you realize how cleverly it's done! No doubt taking the cheat's way out helps the Rumor [...]
  5. Gucci Goes Tropical for Spring/Summer 2010 Advertising Campaign - 2009-12-22 02:05:43-05
    Gucci's creative director Frida Giannini has us all craving warmer weather in her latest advertising campaign. We're transported to a tropical paradise with sparkling turquoise water and bronzed hotties Ryan Kennedy and Natasha Poly. In fact, it's not too different from the poolside Cruise 2010 campaign, but the models are showing a lot more flesh! Star [...]
  6. Jil Sander Zipper Tote Bag | Dramatic Modern Brown Leather Handbag - 2009-12-22 03:05:58-05
    Jil Sander makes a real statement with this Zipper Tote. Although as with all statement pieces, what it's saying won't please everybody. The look is designed to inspire opinion. Love it or hate it, it's impossible to ignore. The tote's fans will praise its asymmetrical pockets as dramatic, daring, and modern. But it's just as easy [...]
  7. Kathy Van Zeeland One Night Stand Shopper | Medium Handbag with Bold Leopard Print - 2009-12-22 15:26:29-05
    Kathy Van Zeeland isn't exactly known for producing understated handbags with subtle details, but this One Night Stand shopper bag definitely throws out any possible misconceptions of that out of the window. There isn't one single aspect of this purse that I can classify as simple or basic. Everything about it is bold and dramatic, which is [...]
  8. Xhilaration Folded Cross Body Bag | Bright Bargain Basement Purse - 2009-12-22 16:49:34-05
    Ooh, nothing beats the feeling of finding a fabulous bargain. At just $7.48, this stunning yellow cross body is a bargain by anyone's standards! Of course, it is always a bonus if the affordable handbag actually looks any good. In the case of this Xhileration purse they have gone out of their way to produce something [...]
  9. Last Minute Holiday Shopping Ideas | Christmas Shipping Deadlines Rapidly Approach - 2009-12-22 20:12:59-05
    Even if you're a major Christmas shopping procrastinator, there's still hope to get a few of those holiday gifts under the tree or in the stocking by Friday. A few online retailers' shipping deadlines have already passed as of this afternoon, but a limited handful of others are still available. For example, Amazon.com's Christmas ordering cutoff [...]
  10. Jimmy Choo Simone Hobo Handbag | Slouchy Black Nappa Leather Purse - 2009-12-23 01:05:55-05
    Jimmy Choo's Simone might be a hobo, but it's no flower child. The Simone has all the trademarks of a traditional hobo. The totally touchable Nappa leather makes it slouch in all the right places, and the curved shape bears a passing resemblance to the familiar crescent. But a few special touches dress things up. First [...]
  11. Hermes To Launch Exclusive Shang Xia Fashion Brand in China - 2009-12-23 02:05:51-05
    The financial downturn doesn't seem to be slowing Hermes down. This spring the luxury label plans to launch a new brand, called Shang Xia, in the lucrative Chinese market. It's an interesting move from Hermes, who generally tends to buy all or part of existing brands. This is the first time the fashion label will get [...]
  12. JJ Winters Suede Shoulder Bag | Slouchy Soft Black with Metal Studs - 2009-12-23 03:05:58-05
    Icy weather looks like it's well and truly set in throughout America and Europe. Rather than envying the folks in summery Australia, why not embrace the season with a plush purse like this one from JJ Winters? The jet black suede is ideal for cooler weather. It's got the same touchable appeal that wool does, but [...]
  13. Jack Georges Croco Collection Briefcase | Sophisticated Crocodile Embossed Luggage - 2009-12-23 08:11:54-05
    This incredibly sophisticated croc-embossed briefcase from Jack Georges may well be the perfect present for any workaholics in your family. Of course, such a good-looking briefcase never ever comes cheap, especially when it is constructed out of real quality Italian leather. As such, the traditional looks of this case will cost you a snapping $785 to [...]
  14. Maxx New York Garbo Tote | Large Faux Patent Leather Handbag - 2009-12-23 15:40:25-05
    There's the Ava and the Hepburn, and now another of Maxx New York's other designs seemingly named after stylish silver screen stars of the past: the Garbo. Like the other sophisticated handbags, the Garbo tote is a pretty blend of classic chic and contemporary. The inverted shape and sophisticated touches such as rolled handles and gold-toned [...]
  15. The "got G.A.M.E.? Collection" Teams up with ABA to Supply Lifestyle Bags for Players - 2009-12-23 16:35:04-05
    The got G.A.M.E.? Collection is an affordable youth athletic apparel and accessories line that also works to encourage today's youth. One only has to hear what their acronym stands for to realize that. With a name that spells out "Goals, Achievements, Motivation and Excellence," it's not hard to imagine why this brand is excited about teaming up with [...]
  16. Pink Studio Shiala Clutch | Crafty Raffia Button Purse - 2009-12-23 18:19:22-05
    What with make-do-and-mend fashion on the rise, and craft being the name of the day, this Pink Studio clutch is perfectly on trend. The actual body of this little Shiala purse is incredibly simple - purely raffia in a minimalist neutral tone. That leaves the cute button and thread detailing to do the talking, and what [...]
  17. Joe's Jeans Donna Four-Poster Tote | Relaxed Saddle Brown Leather Bag - 2009-12-24 01:05:28-05
    This Donna Four-Poster Tote from Joe's Jeans is effortlessly cool. It doesn't follow trends, preferring instead to be classic rock and roll. The luxury leather needs little to dress it up. Complementary stitching adds subtle structure, while a smattering of studs and angular pockets bring the edge we spoke about. But it's not the sort of [...]
  18. Louis Vuitton Reveals 2010 Man Bag Collection - 2009-12-24 02:05:08-05
    Many fashion brands focus on the ladies, but one designer who never forgets men is Louis Vuitton. The iconic luxury label has just revealed its mens' accessory line for fall/winter 2010. It's a decidedly low-key affair, with traditional shapes and a reinterpretation of the time-honored Louis Vuitton monogram. Studio director Paul Helbers claims his collection was [...]
  19. Judith Leiber Cupcake Clutch | Sweet "Sex and the City" Styled Crystal Cake Minaudiere - 2009-12-24 03:05:10-05
    There were so many bags to lust after in the original Sex and the City movie, but the one that really caught my eye was the Judith Leiber clutch carried by Charlotte's daughter. Lily's little strawberry cupcake purse may have sold out quickly, but the designer's now released another one which is so similar you [...]
  20. Armani Exchange Oversized Clutch | Classic Faux Leather Purse - 2009-12-24 14:23:17-05
    Giorgio Armani produce a basic but classic clutch with their Armani Exchange label. Of course, when a clutch is large and over-sized it is generally better to keep the number of embellishments down to a minimum, so as not to let the bag overpower your outfit. In simple black faux leather this big clutch lets its [...]
  21. Alexis Hudson Glam Cross-Body | Mini Convertible Clutch with Studs and Gems - 2009-12-24 14:57:48-05
    Many of the evening bag designs from Alexis Hudson are fairly glamorous, in my opinion, but this Glam Cross-Body definitely lives up to its name with sparkles galore. The handbag is technically just a simple mini zippered pouch that can be carried as a clutch or as a cross-body bag when you attach the long chain [...]
  22. More Designer Handbag Spottings in Newly Released "Sex and the City 2″ Trailer - 2009-12-24 21:56:32-05
    It certainly won't be a shocker to anyone that the upcoming Sex and the City 2 movie is going to be full of all kinds of designer fashion eye-candy for the average woman to covet. We caught a glimpse of that in some of the filming images released earlier this fall, but now the first [...]
  23. Juicy Couture Make Every Day Happy Tote | Bold Retro 80s Denim Handbag - 2009-12-25 01:05:28-05
    If you needed further proof that the 80s are back, just take one look at this retro tote from Juicy Couture. Dark denim is the perfect backdrop for Juicy Couture's optimistic neon text. The slogan "Make Every Day Happy" grabs the spotlight, surprisingly upstaging Juicy Couture's familiar logo. The look takes me back to my childhood, [...]
  24. Fendi Bags Part of Kate Moss' Daughter's Handbag Collection - 2009-12-25 02:05:35-05
    As if having a stylish model mom wasn't enough reason to envy Lila Moss, it seems the seven-year-old daughter of Kate Moss also has a killer handbag collection. The supermodel says her only daughter is already showing an instinct for fashion. "She's already got a great handbag collection! She's got a mirrored Fendi bag and she'll say [...]
  25. Kathrine Baumann Santa Claus Minaudiere | Festive Crystal Encrusted Evening Purse - 2009-12-25 03:05:29-05
    You can't celebrate Christmas without Santa Claus, so feast your eyes on Kathrine Baumann's own version of Old Saint Nick! This lovable Christmas clutch is covered from head to toe in tiny Swarovski crystals. The gems are brightly colored, recreating Santa's famous red suit, snowy white beard, and jolly smile. The golden jewels which form Santa's [...]
  26. Abas Maggie Oversized Purse | Elegant Foldover Envelope Clutch - 2009-12-25 14:44:00-05
    Simple and elegant is the key to really managing to look great over the party season. In fact, having an elegant bag means that you can use it for elegant occasions the year around, should you be more popular than me and actually have anywhere to go with them! Abas have responded to this need with [...]
  27. Hobo International Cassandra Holiday Clutch | Pleated Snake Print Leather Bag - 2009-12-25 15:14:24-05
    How appropriate it seems to feature a bag from Hobo International's Holiday 2009 collection on this Christmas day. The Cassandra might not be the most festive holiday bag available right now, but it's definitely a step outside the expected for this typically understated brand. The slightly oversized Cassandra clutch is a great accessory for semi-casual to [...]
  28. Winners of 2009 Handbago Awards Named | Rebecca Minkoff Studded Devote Wins Top Honor - 2009-12-25 15:47:43-05
    Recently established website Handbago has deliberated and reached their final decisions for the site's first ever Handbag Awards, and the winners are bound to sound familiar. The top honor of "Best Handbag" has been bestowed upon Rebecca Minkoff's trendy Studded Devote Tote from the designer's spring/summer 2009 collection that was full of similarly detailed bags. The following explanation perfectly sums up the choice: "Rebecca Minkoff [...]
  29. Kate Spade Wilton Kerry Lynn Hobo | Sophisticated Carmine Red Suede Handbag - 2009-12-26 01:05:03-05
    Inject a little preppy chic into your wardrobe with this Kerry Lynn hobo from Kate Spade's Wilton collection. Hobos tend to be slouchy, casual accessories, but not this one. The suede body is surprisingly structured, which gives the Kerry Lynn a day-to-night versatility. It's not glitzy enough to be red carpet worthy, but it'd definitely suit [...]
  30. Shopper's Guilt Experienced By Luxury Lovers in the UK, United States - 2009-12-26 01:05:19-05
    As the dust settles on Christmas, chances are that you're feeling a spot of shopper's remorse. And if you don't now, just wait until you receive your next credit card statement. Research from Synovate confirms that many shoppers get an attack of the guilts when spending money on luxuries like designer handbags and fashion items. The [...]
  31. Harveys Lola Tote | Pink Ruffled Seatbelt Bag with Braided Strap - 2009-12-26 15:37:07-05
    If I didn't know that this Lola tote happens to be a Harveys bag, I'd never guess that it's made from the label's signature seatbelt material. Featuring what might be the most atypical Harveys design I've seen yet, the Lola fits right in with the recent ruffled handbag trend that seems to be popping up a [...]
  32. Party Bag Ideas for New Year's Eve Celebrations | Festive Evening Bags in Every Price Range - 2009-12-26 17:15:38-05
    Christmas might have past now, but that certainly doesn't signal an end to parties and other festivities. With New Year's Eve just around the corner, evening bags and sparkly purses are still a major priority when it comes to accessorizing for celebrations. Although New Year's Eve is less than a week away, there's still time to [...]
  33. Kara Ross Alta Handbag | Luxury Camel Leather Purse with Python Trim - 2009-12-27 01:05:49-05
    We haven't seen much of Kara Ross' day bags, which is a real shame. While her exotic clutches are red carpet regulars, larger purses like the Alta deserve just as much acclaim. This is a handbag that oozes luxury. The combination of camel Royce leather and python trim is utterly elegant. Python can often look a [...]
  34. Laura Matthews Designs Colorblock Clutch | Smart Sixties Style Bright Purse - 2009-12-27 04:46:25-05
    Laura Matthews decides that  bright colors are the very best thing to fight off the winter dullness. Perfect for wearing through the dark of winter and in the sunshine of summer, this is a versatile, cross-seasonal clutch. The Colorblock clutch is, perhaps, a trend of last year. Nowadays block colors have been replaced with blacks and [...]
  35. Weird Woolly Mammoth Plant Handbag | Woolly Pocket Takes Green Fashion to the Extreme - 2009-12-27 08:05:44-05
    We've seen plenty of eco-friendly purses released of late, but few brands are as committed to green fashion as Woolly Pocket. The newly released Woolly Vagabond comes with its very own plant! The living, breathing handbag is a real head-turner on the street, a conversation starter at any party, and an excellent centerpiece when you're dining [...]
  36. Botkier Margot Tote | Spacious Hobo Made Out Of Luxury Leather - 2009-12-27 16:07:26-05
    Botkier bags offer some real handbag luxury in every incarnation. Their bags may not be obvious or dramatic, but instead they focus on the things that really matter for a purse that you intend to use every day. This sexy yet suitable everyday hobo gives you attractive looks combined with luxury - Italian cowhide and lambskin. Of [...]
  37. Big Buddha Taylor Shoulder Bag | Leather-Like Satchel with Woven Detail - 2009-12-27 16:46:09-05
    Big Buddha takes a cue from Cole Haan and Bottega Veneta's signature woven looks, though on a more affordable scale, with this Taylor shoulder bag. The Taylor might include that classic style, but there's a slightly different twist to this satchel. Instead covering the bag with the feature, Big Buddha limited it to the front, which is likely [...]
  38. Bagnesia Helps Shoppers Go Green | Keep New Year Resolution with Reusable Bag Reminder Kits - 2009-12-28 00:20:49-05
    If you're like me, you have big intentions of pitching in to help the environment by eliminating the need for those icky, wasteful plastic supermarket bags but are constantly forgetting to grab your reusable shopping bags or to stash them in your car nearly every time you head out to pick up some groceries. Well, one [...]
  39. Kathy Van Zeeland Connect Four Belt Shopper | Modern Studded Pepper Red Synthetic Handbag - 2009-12-28 01:05:38-05
    If you're planning to hit the post-Christmas sales, you'll need a shopper that's up to the challenge. This Kathy Van Zeeland may not be large enough for serious mall addicts, but it manages to pack plenty inside. Kathy Van Zeeland's bags are often a little too trend-conscious for my tastes, but the designer reins herself in [...]
  40. Keep Handbags Clutter Free in 2010 | A New Year's Resolution We Can Stick To - 2009-12-28 02:05:03-05
    The dust is beginning to settle on Christmas 2009, leaving piles of leftover turkey, wrapping paper, and decoration in its wake. But chances are your living room isn't the only site of chaos. Have you taken a look inside your handbag lately? If it's anything like mine your purse is probably carrying the receipts of every [...]
  41. Kenneth Cole Reaction Hide N Peek Tote Bag | Glossy Black Coated Canvas Handbag - 2009-12-28 03:05:21-05
    This Hide N Peek Tote from Kenneth Cole's Reaction line has all the shine of patent leather, without the price. At a little over $50, this is a cheap and cheerful number that looks anything but. I was surprised to find that the glossy finish comes not from genuine patent, or even a cheap synthetic, but [...]
