New at BagBunch: Jimmy Choo Chandra Wet-Look Suede Clutch | Hot Retro Black Suede Clutch With Braided Leather Detail

Hi mary,

Check out the latest handbag fashion news and review at BagBunch.com:
  1. Jimmy Choo Chandra Wet-Look Suede Clutch | Hot Retro Black Suede Clutch With Braided Leather Detail - 2010-05-10 20:24:11-04
    I never thought that I'd been the kind of girl who routinely gushed about Jimmy Choo, but if you've been paying attention, you'll understand how I got converted. His latest collection of handbags is so spot on and perfect, I just can't help myself. The Chandra, which means "moon" by the way, is made of that [...]
  2. Marc by Marc Jacobs Fast Bag Metallic Bowling Bag | Shiny Metallic Silver Leather Bowler With Tons Of Designer Logos - 2010-05-10 23:00:34-04
    I used to be Marc Jacobs' biggest fan, but lately I just don't get what he's up to. Everything looks cheap and gimmicky and totally not anywhere near the classic American Marc Jacobs aesthetic. The fast bag is a pretty perfect example of what I mean. First of all, how shiny is this bag? A little [...]
  3. Badgley Mischka Micol Shoulder Bag | Small Croc-Embossed Leather Purse with Feather Accents - 2010-05-11 00:45:24-04
    Badgley Mischka is typically right on trend with its modern accessories. But this time we see the brand pushing the envelope with its Micol shoulder bag. The Micol sees Badgley Mischka being unexpectedly flamboyant, pairing textures and accents for dramatic effect. The combination of buttery soft crocodile-embossed leather and fine feather fringe could be too much [...]
  4. Baggallini Little Spender Wallet | Small Black Crinkle Nylon Convertible Wristlet - 2010-05-11 02:05:02-04
    Baggallini encourages us to be frugal with its Little Spender Wallet. Baggllini bags are rarely fashion forward, and this one is no exception. It's a shrinking violet really, the kind of wallet you'd stash inside a contemporary day bag, or pair with a flamboyant outfit that needs no competition. The basic black body is made of [...]
  5. First Look at Lindsay Lohan's 6126 Handbag Collection - 2010-05-11 03:05:59-04
    Lindsay Lohan's handbags for her 6126 label won't hit stores until the holiday season, but we've got our first sneak peek. The Hollywood actress and her design partner Paz Shaked Wolf, formerly of Dolce & Gabanna, are starting small with just four styles. The centerpiece of the range is The Monroe, pictured. It's being touted as [...]
  6. Bally Mayo Hobo | Slouchy Ruched Nappa Leather Handbag - 2010-05-11 04:05:38-04
    With all the slouchy style we expect from a hobo and the sophistication Bally is famous for comes the Mayo Hobo. Nappa leather is the perfect material for striking this delicate compromise. The seemingly haphazard ruching only emphasizes the softness of this high quality skin. It slouches in all the right places, yet never appears slovenly. [...]
  7. Rachel Comey Releases Hiking Backpacks and Other Outdoors Accessories - 2010-05-11 05:05:04-04
    If you're tired of drab khaki and navy outdoor accessories, check out the spicy styles in Rachel Comey's new hiking collection. Rachel Comey has put her inimitable stamp on classic styles including the backpack, knapsack, and clutch. I can't imagine how useful a clutch would be on a hiking expedition, but it might just add a [...]
  8. Be & D Genesis Bag | Practical Black Pebble Leather Purse - 2010-05-11 06:05:33-04
    Be & D plays it safe with the Genesis bag, but that's no reason to dismiss this classic purse. This isn't what we expect from the label; there are no studs, no ruffles, and no bows. Be & D's trademark sense of whimsy seems to have been forgotten altogether. While that may disappoint the label's legions [...]
  9. Calvin Klein Liquid Leather Clutch | Woven Patent Envelope Date Bag - 2010-05-11 08:02:49-04
    This isn't the first Calvin Klein Liquid Leather purse we have seen on the market - but it is definitely the most interestingly shaped one. The traditional envelope design of this enigmatically named date bag is updated thanks to the the cut out corners of the glossy front flap. This adds a little shape to this [...]
  10. Bebe Frills & Thrills Satchel | Modern Feminine Ruffled Handbag - 2010-05-12 02:05:51-04
    Bebe embraces its feminine side with this bold Frills & Thrills satchel. This is definitely a bag that means what it says; this satchel has both frills and thrills in abundance. It's undeniably girly, but by using leatherette rather than a softer satin or chiffon Bebe has created a more modern look with its ruffles. This [...]
  11. Celebrities Design Coach Totes for Chinese Charity Auction - 2010-05-12 03:05:21-04
    Hollywood stars have joined Asian celebrities in designing tote bags to celebrate the opening of Coach's new Shanghai store, one of 15 new Coach boutiques in China. The one-of-a-kind bags are being auctioned to benefit the Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation, an organization which gives scholarships to young people from Hong Kong. The celebs, which included Twilight's [...]
  12. Betsey Johnson Eye Spye Medium Shopper | Marilyn Monroe Print Nylon Retro Carryall Bag - 2010-05-12 04:05:21-04
    Who says a trip to the grocery store can't be glamorous? Betsey Johnson hopes to inject some Hollywood style into your weekly supermarket run with this Eye Spye Medium Shopper. We might only see her facial features, but the cheeky image printed on this nylon shopper is unmistakably Marilyn Monroe. Her playful wink is rendered in [...]
  13. Italian Handbag Designer Giuliana Coen Camerino Dies in Venice - 2010-05-12 05:05:45-04
    Italian handbag designer Giuliana Coen Camerino has died in Venice at the age of 90. Her fashion house Roberta di Camerino was a favorite of glamorous Hollywood actresses Grace Kelly and Elizabeth Taylor. Through it Camerino is credited with making handbags fashionable. Her timeless purses typically sported brass clasps and beautiful velvet bodies. Camerino's design career began [...]
  14. Big Buddha Donna Tote | Convertible White Studded Vegan Leather Handbag - 2010-05-12 06:05:31-04
    Big Buddha brings some extra versatility to the studded trend with the Donna tote. The simple tote shape is paired with a dramatic studded body. The mix of gold and silver-toned round and pyramid studs is surprising, but I think it works well. After seeing so many bags covered in classic studs, the variety here helps [...]
  15. Bally Vevay Calfskin Leather Tote | Sophisticated and Timeless Luxury Bag - 2010-05-12 07:53:00-04
    This Bally tote is a rare bag indeed. It is one of those bags that costs more than my car did, yet which I can totally understand people buying. It is an everything bag, the one bag a woman should own, the creation that will see you from work to parties and everything in-between. Perhaps that [...]
  16. Juicy Couture Patent Leather Hobo Bag | Sleek Black Patent Hobo With Edgy Details - 2010-05-12 15:52:26-04
    I have mostly been liking Juicy Couture's bags lately. They seem to be making their accessories line a little more sophisticated and streamlined. This hobo, however, is not a particularly good example of that change. While this hobo is more elegant than many of the bags in Juicy's brightly colored, overdecorated past, it isn't exactly the [...]
  17. Balenciaga Continental Contrasting Wallet | Vintage Crafted Leather Purse - 2010-05-12 18:08:26-04
    $645 is a lot for any handbag, let alone a small designer wallet. The problem I have with purses like this is seeing past the expensive status symbol price tag, and to the design that lies beneath. If we forget the price for now, however, then this Continental is actually quite a unique and beautiful wallet. The [...]
  18. Bodhi Pebble Clutch | Unique Green Pleated Leather Purse - 2010-05-13 02:05:38-04
    We're used to seeing weird and wonderful purses from Bodhi. In comparison to most of the label's bags, this Pebble Clutch is almost tame! While that might disappoint some Bodhi fans, it should also attract some bagistas who'd previously dismissed the brand. Here Bodhi has struck the right balance between innovative style and usability. The buttery [...]
  19. Lulu Guinness Launches American Website with Limited Edition Flag Lips Clutch - 2010-05-13 03:05:16-04
    Quirky British designer Lulu Guinness is offering her handbags to fans across the pond with the launch of her new American website. To celebrate this week's launch, Lulu Guinness has released a limited edition Stars and Stripes Lips clutch. The snakeskin purse, featuring Lulu's favorite lips motif, is an online exclusive for to be sold during [...]
  20. Botkier Brooklyn Hobo | Modern Tasseled Boho Leather Handbag - 2010-05-13 04:05:55-04
    Botkier brings an uptown vibe to the classic bohemian hobo with the Brooklyn bag. This is a purse which stays true to its roots, effortlessly blending New York attitude and boho style. The lush leather works with grommeted details to give the Brooklyn its contemporary edge, while the long tassels which drape from the base bring [...]
  21. Bottega Veneta Brings Handbag Customization Service to American Boutiques - 2010-05-13 05:05:43-04
    Bottega Veneta bags are set to become even more exclusive this season as the Italian label offers customizable handbags to its loyal American customers. These luxury purses promise to be true originals, with fans able to choose their favorite colors and the materials used. The finishing touch is monogrammed initials, which brand the bag as yours [...]
  22. Bulga Blesk Tote | Contemporary Studded Gray Leather Handbag - 2010-05-13 06:05:04-04
    Studded bags might still be in vogue, but they're starting to feel a bit passé to me. So I love seeing a brand like Bulga delivering an even more modern take on the popular trend. Rather than cover the Blesk in regular pinhead studs, Bulga has opted to scatter a few large pyramid studs in just [...]
  23. J.Renee Delora Satin Clutch | Rhinestone Flower Evening Bag - 2010-05-13 07:31:54-04
    With the wedding season approaching, this J. Renee Delora clutch may be just the thing to go with that pretty floral dress you are planning on wearing. In fact, this satin purse couldn't get more wedding appropriate if it tried. The dusky pink shade means you won't be giving the bride a run for her money, [...]
  24. London Fog Camden Clutch | Plaid Patterned Envelope Purse - 2010-05-13 16:59:46-04
    If you fancy coordinating with your picnic blanket this summer then this plaid clutch is the perfect choice! Actually, sarcasm aside, I really like this pattern. The light summery beige works brilliantly with the blue stripes, and I am glad they kept the rest of it minimal. I can't imagine something better suited to summer days, [...]
  25. Burberry Haymarket Ellie Wallet | Classic Plaid and Brown Leather Purse - 2010-05-14 02:05:57-04
    Burberry fans will swoon over the classic preppy style of this Haymarket Ellie Wallet. For the rest of us though, I think this purse is just a little too safe. Burberry knows its market though, and they will be perfectly satisfied with the combination of classic tartan checks and chocolate brown leather. But I'm just a [...]
  26. Artist Pierre Le-Tan Illustrates Beach Totes for Coach Beach Collection - 2010-05-14 03:05:02-04
    Coach has teamed up with French artist Pierre Le-Tan for a fun range of beach bags. The three totes in the Coach Beach Collection feature Le-Tan's whimsical illustrations in warm, summery colors. We can choose from a friendly seahorse, a beachside cabana, or a sun-sensible umbrella. Shiny gold-toned hardware and leather accents complete the upmarket coastal [...]
  27. Calvin Klein Rain Hobo | Textured Patent Synthetic Persimmon Purse - 2010-05-14 04:05:51-04
    Calvin Klein reinvigorates the hobo bag with this glossy patent Rain. While most hobos have a relaxed bohemian style, this one begs for attention with its vivid colors and rich, glossy texture. This is a fabric that looks good, so good that you'd swear it was leather. At $148 it probably should be genuine patent, but [...]
  28. Balenciaga Sells Limited Edition Anniversary Motorcycle Bags at Neiman Marcus - 2010-05-14 05:05:17-04
    Balenciaga has teamed up with Neiman Marcus to release a limited edition handbag collection to celebrate the French brand's 10th anniversary. Neiman Marcus will sell six exclusive versions of the iconic motorcycle bag: three Firsts and three Cities. Each bag is available in three colored cracquele-finish calfskins; choose from classic noir black, bronze, and a pastel [...]
  29. Carlo Fellini Casablanca Bag | Embroidered Bridal Frame Clutch Purse - 2010-05-14 06:05:53-04
    With all the old world charm of vintage Hollywood comes this Carlo Fellini Casablanca Bag. This beautiful purse is made from the softest of satins, and subtly embroidered with beautiful blooms. This classic floral print is further embellished with tiny glass beads running along the silvery frame. The Casablanca looks like so many frame purses from a [...]
  30. Fendi Peekaboo Embroidered Tote | Sweet Black Vintage Look Emroidered Tote - 2010-05-14 15:55:26-04
    Fendi has really been surprising me lately. The line seems to be stepping away from their usually ostentatious, in-your-face aesthetic and moving towards something a little softer. This new look combined with the chic Italian touches that made Fendi famous makes for an amazing handbag. The Peekaboo reminds me of a Mary Poppin's magic bag, only [...]
  31. Stuart Weitzman Myclutch Purse | Black Patent Fold-Over Clutch - 2010-05-14 17:07:08-04
    Beautiful gloss patent leather is shiny enough to see your reflection in in this Stuart Weitzman clutch. A simple black bag is a necessity in any girls wardrobe. It will go with anything, any outfit at all, and it will work equally for day or night. Much like that dress that you always fall back on [...]
  32. CC Skye Taylor Satchel | Modern Minimalist Structured Leather Handbag - 2010-05-15 02:05:54-04
    Just like people, some handbags are cool simply because they don't try to be. The Taylor from CC Skye is one of those rare breeds. There's not a hint of on-trend hardware, no seasonal colors; instead it keeps things simple and is better for it. The leather body is lovely in rich chocolate brown or taupe. [...]
  33. Christian Dior Launches Exclusive Blue Collection for Shanghai Store - 2010-05-15 03:05:37-04
    Christian Dior is celebrating the reopening of its Shanghai store this month with an exclusive Blue collection. There are 12 goodies in total, including Lady Dior evening and classic bags in deep blue calfskin. This classic bag, with its military style messenger strap, would be ideal for daytime wear. Then I'd switch to the sequined evening [...]
  34. Charles David Normandie Tote | East-West Style Pleated Leather Handbag - 2010-05-15 04:05:40-04
    For a tote with uptown style, consider the slouchy yet structured look of the Normandie Tote. The leather body is lovely, but what really makes this east-west bag is its rows of gathered pleats. These puckered accents see the leather slouching softly, creating a look which is feminine but modern all at the same time. The [...]
  35. Bugaboo Releases Limited Edition RED Diaper Bag for AIDS Charity - 2010-05-15 05:05:44-04
    Popular baby brand Bugaboo is doing its bit for charity with the launch of its Bugaboo RED diaper bag. Bugaboo will donate 1% of its revenue raised from the bag and other Bugaboo products to The Global Fund's efforts to eradicate AIDS in Africa. The limited edition baby bag is made of white leather offset with [...]
  36. Diesel The Bright Side Tote | Colorful Glimpse Shoulder Bag - 2010-05-15 17:30:07-04
    Diesel have been bringing more and more fashion to their sporty handbags over the past few months, and this clever tote is their latest addition. The shape of the bag itself isn't actually all that stylish. However, the flexible size and multiple pockets are functional, and that makes up for the certain lack of sleek silhouette. The [...]
  37. Embroidered Handmade Laga Handbags Helps Tsunami Survivors Rebuild Lives - 2010-05-16 03:05:03-04
    Laga Handbags has been changing the lives of impoverished Indonesian women since 2004, but it wasn't until the brand was featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show recently that the world really began to take notice. Laga Handbags employs women from villages in the Aceh province affected by the 2004 tsunami. They are trained to use sewing [...]
  38. Aldo Wish Box Clutch | Affordable Silver Evening Bag - 2010-05-16 16:34:28-04
    Whilst some handbag designers can expect you to pay hundreds for a pretty metallic box. Thankfully, Aldo only charge you a grand total of $11.98! OK, so you don't get the exquisite materials that you get in the designer version. Gone is the beautiful silver leather, and in its place Aldo have used a snakeskin print [...]
  39. Coach Poppy Canvas Butterfly Tote | Colorful Patchwork Applique Handbag - 2010-05-17 00:28:29-04
    Once upon a time, patchwork purses were Coach staples. But then the stitched fabric swatches fell out of favor, and Coach abandoned them for sleeker, leather alternatives. And so this Poppy Canvas Butterfly Tote feels like a return to form for the American brand, a reinvention of the popular art of patchwork. The concept is simple, [...]
  40. Chinese Laundry Dolly Hobo | Croc Print Synthetic Drawstring Slouch Handbag - 2010-05-17 01:27:55-04
    Chinese Laundry adds some modern style to the traditional hobo bag with the Dolly. It looks luxurious from a distance, but it's actually made from a high-quality synthetic. While fashion snobs may prefer real leather, I'm just happy this manmade material slouches in all the right ways. The subtle crocodile embossing adds to the illusion of [...]
  41. Yves Saint Laurent Relaunches Website With Online Exclusive Store - 2010-05-17 01:49:27-04
    Yves Saint Laurent has relaunched its official website with a collection of luxe products available exclusively through the fashion house's online store. Fans of the brand's lauded embossed sueded crocodile will be thrilled to see the skin adorning the iconic Large Muse Bag. This luscious exotic inspired fabric brings a new dimension to this famous It [...]
  42. Coccinelle Cindy Satchel | Contemporary Dual Zip Carryall Handbag - 2010-05-17 02:05:31-04
    Coccinelle has struck the ideal balance between contemporary good looks and versatility with the Cindy Satchel. This bag pushes the envelope just far enough, with its distinctive curved zipper and gently pleated body. The buttery leather body gives the Cindy its softness, a delicious counterpoint to the shiny hardware. That zip, with its long pull tags, [...]
  43. Louis Vuitton Launches Young Arts Project in London - 2010-05-17 03:05:58-04
    Louis Vuitton has teamed up with five UK galleries to launch the Young Arts Project. The initiative will help young London-based artists get involved in art and see their work publicly displayed. Louis Vuitton will work with the Hayward Gallery, Royal Academy of Arts, South London Gallery, Tate Britain, and Whitechapel Gallery to realize the initiative. The [...]
  44. Cole Haan Britney Zip Hobo | Soft Studded Tumbled Leather Blue Purse - 2010-05-17 04:05:43-04
    Cole Haan gives a new spin on the modern taste for studs with this Britney zip hobo. The key here is restraint. Rather than cover this tumbled leather purse in metal, Cole Haan has opted instead for rows of tiny nailhead studs dotting the diagonal stitched accents. The shiny pale silver spots add just a hint [...]
  45. Re-Collect Recycles Tires and Bike Treads for Eco-Friendly Urban Handbags - 2010-05-17 05:05:22-04
    British brand Re-Collect is proud of its commitment to recycling; so proud that its edgy eco-friendly handbags proudly sport the markings that point to their original materials. It's easy to spot that these funky urban accessories are made from inner tires, bike treads, seatbelts, and other unwanted auto and bicycle parts. Tell-tale marques and markings point [...]
  46. Rebecca Minkoff Studded Tote | Linear Leather Nikki Hobo - 2010-05-17 08:20:22-04
    Do you remember the Rebecca Minkoff Nikki hobo? Well, now the designer has produced a studded version for our delectation, the Linear. The shape, you may realise, is pretty much identical to the slouchy leather of the first version of this Nikki tote. Because I loved the quality and feel first time round, I have to [...]
