1. Matt & Nat Saatchi Envelope Clutch | Delicate Vegan Japanese Paper Purse - 2010-01-04 17:29:55-05
   The next handbag in Matt & Nat Saatchi's vegan range made from Japanese paper is this cute crumpled fold-over purse. Although the magenta is lovely, many people dislike having a crumpled purse. The artful creation of this particular clutch, however, gives an impression of intended wrinkles, rather than random dishevelment. In the same way, this vegan bag [...]
   
2. Kotur Adds Line of Casual Day Bags to Brand for Spring and Summer - 2010-01-05 00:01:39-05
   A typical collection of Kotur handbags includes minaudieres and evening bags in exotic prints and patterns perfect for special occasions or even red carpet events.

3. Linea Pelle Vanessa Large Hobo Handbag | Unusual Slouch Purse with Hand Lacing and Exaggerated Fringe - 2010-01-05 01:05:51-05
   I was starting to feel like designers had done just about everything they could to reinvent the hobo, but then I spotted the Vanessa. Here Linea Pelle has done the seemingly impossible, and delivered yet another variation on the boho staple. There's a hint of classic crescent in the shape, but it's a lot longer and [...]
   
4. Fun Tabitha Helping Handbag Benefits Bulgarian Orphan Charity - 2010-01-05 02:05:39-05
   Many handbag designers pay lip service to charity work, but when you read the fine print you see only a small percentage of the profits go where they're needed. Not so with this gorgeous Tabitha bag; the very first Helping Handbag! 100% of the proceeds from this purse's sales will benefit The Campaign for Bulgaria's Abandoned [...]
   
5. Liz Claiborne Montclair Work Tote | Practical Raspberry Reptile Embossed Synthetic Handbag - 2010-01-05 03:05:34-05
   Its name is a little pretentious, but there are no airs and graces about the Montclair. This Liz Claiborne purse is a no fuss accessory for girls on the go. The style is fairly traditional, with its boxy satchel shape and round curved handles. But the exotic embossed surface, rendered in playful raspberry pink, saves it [...]
   
6. Calvin Klein Embroidered Nylon Tote | Quilted Functional Handbag - 2010-01-05 08:21:24-05
   This may not be Calvin Klein's most unusual tote, but it sure is the perfect accompaniment for venturing out into the winter weather! Everyone loves leather, and it certainly is a great material for making handbags out of. When it is cold and wet and horrible outside, however, practical nylon can be a much more sensible [...]
   
7. Diesel New Generation Becky Bag | Teal Blue Nylon and Leather Tote - 2010-01-05 15:21:06-05
   Diesel's New Generation line is supposed to be slightly cutting edge and futuristic in style, but frankly I just see function and convenience when I look at the collection of nylon bags and totes. I suppose the durability of the material combined with interesting design features is the reason that the brand classifies it as new and [...]
   
8. Louis Vuitton Releases Animania Collection of Small Accessories | Includes Animal-Shaped Coin Purses and Clutch Bags - 2010-01-05 16:07:59-05
   Louis Vuitton must have a finger on the pulse of kitschy cute fashion because their new Animania collection hits right on the increasingly popular appeal of vintage-inspired, woodland creatures and various feathered friends. This new line of small accessories actually pays tribute to a selection of wooden animal-shaped toys that the Vuitton family made and that [...]
   
9. Miquelrius Agatha Ruiz de la Prada Mini Bag | Argyle Print Coin Purse - 2010-01-05 16:45:37-05
   If you want a cute and handy little coin purse, or a bag for bits and bobs, then this $10.99 wonder will do fine. Sure, it isn't made from the skin of some exotic animal, or encrusted in diamonds - but sometimes you just need something fun, silly, and functional. All it really needs to do, [...]
   
10. Lodis Pia Geovanna Tote | Casual Black Nylon Carryall Bag - 2010-01-06 01:05:04-05
    The name's a little bit fancy, but the Pia Geovanna is a down-to-earth purse with a lot of get up and go. The styling is traditional and classic. There are no bells and whistles here, with luxury leather passed over for no frills nylon and clean lines providing a timeless look. This lightweight fabric brings a [...]
    
11. Botkier and PurseBlog Collaborate on Reader Designed Handbag - 2010-01-06 02:05:27-05
    Botkier has teamed up with popular handbag website PurseBlog for a very special handbag collaboration. Rather than the "experts" telling fashion fans what they want, PurseBlog readers will decide on the design. Polls set up on the website will allow the site's fans to vote on the bag's silhouette, leathers, and hardware. The possible looks take [...]
    
12. Loop NYC Baliwood Satchel | Colorful Blue Cotton Floral Handbag - 2010-01-06 03:05:56-05
    Loop NYC abandons the cartoon characters and pop culture looks it typically favors for this fun floral satchel. From the Baliwood collection, this satchel is difficult to ignore. It's covered in cheery flowers rendered in vibrant tones like red, blue, and purple. The blooms are overlaid with even more flowers cut out from white PVC. This [...]
    
13. Sharif Flower Patchwork Hobo | Chain Detailed Uniquely Shaped Purse - 2010-01-06 08:55:42-05
    Sometimes functional hobos get to take a break from being useful and concentrate instead on being good fun. This Sharif bag may not be constructed from real leather (such a shame), but it sure as hell looks like it is. That fun nature is channelled through a patchwork pattern of suede-esque and patent panels, which work together to give [...]
    
14. Lucky Brand Road Rebel Shopper | Simple Casual Leather Handbag - 2010-01-06 16:59:32-05
    Lucky Brand has perfected that perfect cool, laid-back vibe with a hint of bohemian. The Road Rebel shopper bag exemplifies the label's blend of casual and just a bit of edge to it. As with Lucky's other designs, the Road Rebel is made from quality leather. The soft, pebbled material makes this handbag well worth its [...]
    
15. Win a Halston Foxy Envelope Clutch Bag with Hammered Gold Hardware from The Outnet - 2010-01-06 23:03:56-05
    Halston is one of those brands that you really can't go wrong with. Though the label is probably best known for long, flowy and feminine gowns, the handbags are definitely something worth talking about. For example, this Halston Foxy Clutch is everything I picture when I think of the designer: timeless yet modern but with a [...]
    
16. Lovcat Mirror Reflection Wristlet | Retro Red Patent Purse with Heart Accent - 2010-01-07 01:05:34-05
    This cute Mirror Reflection wristlet from Lovcat is the ideal way to make any outfit pop. The glossy patent leather surface gives this purse a real retro feel. The shiny finish is accented with black contrast stitching and a black heart-detailed buckle. Some girls may long for some more color choices, but I can't imagine a [...]
    
17. Luxury Handbags Still Popular in Asia, Bag Lovers in the West Shun Designer Labels - 2010-01-07 02:05:45-05
    New research has confirmed what many fashion fans have suspected: designer labels are falling out of favor in the West, but are as popular as ever in Asia. The research from Synovate shows 68% of fashion fans in Hong Kong prefer a brand name item such as Prada or Louis Vuitton. They look for prominent logos [...]
    
18. Louis Vuitton Suhali L'Ingenieux PM Bag | Plain Brown Goatskin Vintage Satchel Handbag - 2010-01-07 03:05:48-05
    As prominent logos are falling out of favor, a bag like the Louis Vuitton L'Ingenieux becomes an appealing proposition. With its plain brown surface and fairly traditional shape, this is an easy bag to pass over. In fact, no matter what its name suggests there's very little ingenuity applied here. But when so many Louis Vuitton [...]
    
19. Rioni Roushe The Flutter Bag | Delicate Snow Inspired Shoulder Bag - 2010-01-07 08:35:32-05
    With snow affecting people around the world, this delicate flutter bag seemed the very best thing to compliment it. People may well be fed up with the constant layers of thick white, but that doesn't have to extend to fashion. A thick wool coat and delicate white bag are what working winter fashion is really all [...]
    
20. B. Makowsky Atlantis Shopper | Leather Satchel with Multiple Buckles - 2010-01-07 23:34:21-05
    I almost might have guessed that this was a Treesje handbag if I hadn't seen the B. Makowsky label first. Although Treesje's style tends to be a tad edgier than B. Makowsky's, the details on this Atlantis shopper do remind me a little of the label's signature look. The main feature that gives the Atlantis a [...]
    
21. Anya Hindmarch to Design for Legendary British Brand Barbour - 2010-01-08 00:57:30-05
    She's got quite a following for her deliciously luxurious handbags and unique style sensibility, but Anya Hindmarch is branching out a bit and trying her hand at something a little different these days. We've just found out that the designer, who has done everything from collaborating with Target for a diffusion line and creating that oh-so-recognizable [...]
    
22. Luba J Chloe Tote Bag | Modern Black Leather Studded Handbag - 2010-01-08 01:05:54-05
    Luba J brings a little modern edge to the traditional quilted tote with the Chloe. When so many designers opt for a classic diamond quilting, Luba J does the unexpected and gives us stitched boxes. It's more edgy than elegant, especially with round and riveted square stud accents in the mix. It's not as outrageous as [...]
    
23. Prada Gives New Face Rasa Zukauskaite Spring 2010 Advertising Campaign - 2010-01-08 02:05:13-05
    While many designer labels clamor for the talent of supermodels Kate Moss and Claudia Schiffer, and even pop stars like Lily Allen and Madonna, Prada prefers to cast fresh faces in its advertising. The brand's spring 2010 campaign is no exception, with Lithuanian beauty Rasa Zukauskaite taking center stage. Or at least, she would have the [...]
    
24. Lucky Brand Batik Windmill Runway Bucket Bag | Colorful Canvas Printed Purse - 2010-01-08 03:05:21-05
    We've drooled over Lucky Brand's lovely neutral purses, including the musically influenced Abbey Road and Rockin' Ruffles. But now the brand shows us its brighter side with the Batik Windmill Runway Bag. The natural canvas body is jazzed up with a colorful, almost psychedelic windmill print. Purples, yellows, greens, and blues are mottled together to create [...]

Kitsch is always great fun, and little touches like this can fulfill the [...]
    
26. Bodhi Tubular Lined Clutch | Surreal Quilted Neon Purse - 2010-01-08 18:08:38-05
    Some bags are great fun whilst at the same time wonderfully odd. This peculiar clutch from Bodhi is just that! Of course, strange high fashion like the quilted lines of this purse doesn't come cheap.That particular example comes in at $598, which is a lot for any bag at all! The tubes are of course classy [...]
    
27. Rampage Jenny Flap Shoulder Bag | Synthetic Handbag with Chain and Ruffle Detail - 2010-01-08 21:39:44-05
    This Rampage Jenny handbag seems to be suffering from a little bit of an identity crisis with a couple of different styles going on at the same time. However, the combination of looks is cute and chic. The top half of the front of the Jenny shoulder bag is somewhat simple and slightly contemporary with just a [...]
    
28. Karlie Kloss Channels Lauren Bacall's Style for Dior Spring/Summer 2010 Campaign - 2010-01-08 23:19:22-05
    Little Karlie Kloss looks way beyond her seventeen years in this latest advertising campaign released by Christian Dior. Whether someone from the designer label looked at this up-and-coming model and saw a resemblance between her and Lauren Bacall or simply had that inspiration in mind for the photo shoot, Karlie is definitely channeling the silver [...]
    
29. Lulu Guinness Kiss Purse | Large Playful Lips Zip Clutch - 2010-01-09 01:05:15-05

31. Gustto Frenza Shoulder Bag | Rich Slouchy Patent Tote - 2010-01-09 13:35:40-05
    Gustto go all luxurious with their rich Burgundy Frenza bag. The shape of this huge and spacious tote is quite unique. Sure, the basic tote design is there, but in combination with a small central handle and stylised fold over closure. The looks combine fashion with function, and I think the balance is made brilliantly. The handle [...]
    
32. Giuseppe Zanotti Printed Graphic Clutch | Metallic Diamante Typographic Purse - 2010-01-09 18:11:24-05
    This surreal and hugely expensive purse is just the most recent in a long lines of fashion-friendly and creative Giuseppe Zanotti bags. The diamante on this graphic clutch may be a little too much for many people, especially in combination with the bling gold interior. However, the little crystals do serve to have a great and [...]
    
33. Roxy Ruffled Up Shoulder Bag | Casual Synthetic Handbag with Layered Ruffles - 2010-01-09 21:51:26-05
    Ruffles, ruffles, and more ruffles seem to be taking the handbag world by storm right now. It seems like every time I turn around there's another style featuring this increasingly ubiquitous feature. If your pocketbook can't handle the designer versions like the Moschino Cheap and Chic Ruffled Bag, however, there are plenty of other fish in the [...]
    
34. Win a Lauren Merkin Clutch by Submitting Your Holiday Outfit to Designer's Facebook Page - 2010-01-09 22:56:23-05
    If you weren't able to find that perfect clutch bag to accessorize your holiday party, you just might be in luck for next year's events not to mention any other dressy events that come up during the rest of the year. The designer that I like to refer to as the Queen of Clutches is [...]
    
35. Mad by Design Trapezoid Bag | Chic Black and White Horn and Shell Purse - 2010-01-10 01:05:04-05
    With its eye-catching combination of black horn and white shell, this Trapezoid Bag from Mad by Design makes a real statement. The smooth surfaces are hand-sewn together to create a contemporary starburst style design. The angular pattern is the perfect fit for the purse's distinctive trapezoid shape. I love the look, but I'm not sure how practical [...]
    
36. Emma Watson Brings Brother to New Burberry Advertisement - 2010-01-10 02:05:25-05
    Burberry brought us a new grown-up Hermoine Granger in last year's fall/winter campaign. Now in 2010, the British brand is giving us a Watson double act! Harry Potter star Emma Watson stars in the label's latest advertising campaign with her little brother Alex. Nepotism may have won him the modeling gig, but Alex definitely holds his [...]
    
37. Goldenbleu Rachelle Hobo | Striped Metallic Patchwork Tote - 2010-01-10 12:39:04-05
    Goldenbleu aren't known for creating bags that break from the norm - and this stripey Rachelle hobo is a new design of their old favorite. The shape of this bag makes the most of the smooth and sleek patent panels. Rather than going over the top, the emphasis instead is on a simple basic shape that [...]
    
38. Frye Heidi Minimalist Clutch | Simple White Purse with Contrasting Features - 2010-01-10 15:37:20-05
    Frye head for minimalist class with this pure white Heidi clutch. White and brown isn't a very common combination, and judging by the looks of this clutch that is a shame! The bright white background works brilliantly with the cute little brown features. Perhaps the combo works so well because of the background shape of the [...]
    
39. Carlos Falchi Matte Anaconda Doctor Bag | Large Snakeskin Leather Satchel - 2010-01-10 15:49:18-05
    This Carlos Falchi Doctor Bag doesn't have nearly the same structured silhouette thatI'm used to seeing from other bags in the same style category. However, this large version of Falchi's signature doctor bag design is luxury at its best. Although it has a nearly identical shape to the patent leather version of the designer's doctor bag style, the [...]
    
40. Gucci Favorite Natasha Poly Renews Modeling Contract with Label for Next Season - 2010-01-10 23:53:28-05
    I'm so used to hearing about major labels switching to the next big thing, the hyped-up newcomer, or the legendary icon when it comes to to model selection that it sometimes throws me off a bit to see one face repeatedly popping up in the ad campaigns of certain brands. I know there are plenty of labels that stick to one gal or [...]
    
41. Mad Imports Lug Tote | Simple Eco-Friendly Woven Raffia Carryall Bag - 2010-01-11 01:05:45-05
    It may not have the most elegant name around, but the Lug tote from Mad Imports is surprisingly stylish. The look is simple yet chic. Woven raffia usually has a beachside appeal, but the tight weave, jute trim, coordinating leather, and contrasting two-tone look make the Lug perfect for taking away from the sea shore. It'll [...]

43. Maddalena Marconi Kiss Lock Clutch | Jeweled Oval Gold Purse with Chain Strap - 2010-01-11 03:05:49-05
    Forget Juicy Couture and Kathy Van Zeeland. If you want real bling, look no further than this Maddalena Marconi purse. This luxury purse is definitely over the top, and that's just what its fans will love about it. Tiny Swarovski crystals are sewn over the golden netting and satin body. Larger gemstones fan out in a [...]
    
44. Lauren Merkin Louise Glitter Clutch | Hinged Lizard Print Purse - 2010-01-11 07:58:18-05
    Lauren Merkin use exotic lizard-print leather to its best advantage in their glittery Louise clutch. I am of the opinion that handbags using animal prints or exotic leathers tread a very thin line between fashionable, and just plain horrible. Thankfully for Lauren Merkin this clutch definitely slots neatly into the fashionable side of the scale. The [...]
