Hi mary,

Check out the latest handbag fashion news and review at BagBunch.com:
  1. Treesje Studded Streaked Clutch | Luxury Leather Evening Purse - 2010-05-03 16:38:22-04
    Worn biker leather combines with a miniature studding on this sexy Treesje clutch. Whether creating edgy designs or closet staples, Treesje know handbags. I have always respected them on a design level - their luxury bags are beautifully shaped and wonderfully structured. With this Streaked clutch I also respect them on a handbag level. Essentially, with [...]
  2. J. Furmani Quilted Bag | Satiny Stitched Wine Colored Handbag with Pearl Handle - 2010-05-04 02:05:14-04
    All too often it seems that designers attempt to replicate the classic designs of Chanel with their quilted bags. And why not? These timeless flap purses are still as desirable today as on their initial release. The problem is that invariably the copycats fall flat. So it's refreshing to see J. Furmani try something new [...]
  3. Nilaja Designs Launches Denim Bling Collection Bags - 2010-05-04 03:05:20-04
    Greeting card brand Nilaja Designs has diversified with the launch of its first line of handbags. The Bling Collection definitely lives up to its name. An assortment of crystals, rhinestones, beads, shells, and metal accents embellish the range's organic denim purses. Remember when young girls used to make handbags from old denim jeans and glue guns [...]
  4. Serpui Marie Fernanda Tote | Summery Woven Straw Handbag with Braided Leather Handles - 2010-05-04 04:05:47-04
    You'll be beach ready with this casual Fernanda tote from Serpui Marie. This straw tote oozes coastal cool with its tightly woven body and bright glossy trim. The tropical floral lining peeks out from the top, offering an unexpected splash of color. The Fernanda's relaxed approach extends to its design. We don't need to fuss with zippers [...]
  5. Radley Uses Harris Tweed for Premium Grosvenor Handbag - 2010-05-04 05:05:20-04
    Radley has struck a deal with Carloway Mill, which will see the Harris Tweed mill producing handmade cloth for a premium version of its popular Grosvenor handbag. "We were putting together our latest themes and had a very strong inspiration from the 1920s' Bloomsbury group which is all about arts and crafts and the painting and [...]
  6. Moonsus Voguish Wallet Clutch | Embroidered Leather Zip Organizer Purse - 2010-05-04 06:05:06-04
    Part wallet and part clutch, the Voguish purse from Moonsus can happily do either job. From the outside it looks like a classic casual clutch purse. It's not as pretty as an evening purse, but the scrolling embroidery bordering the shiny metal logo plate helps to jazz up the exterior. The colors complement the Voguish's everyday [...]
  7. Fashion Tips for the KC Malhan Taos Clutch | A How To Wear Guide for this Sequin Purse - 2010-05-04 06:20:55-04
    Have you ever seen a handbag that you love, but not known how to style it? If so, then you could probably use a few styling ideas to set you off on the right foot. These 'How to Wear' posts will aim to do just that: to give you a few fashion ideas to inspire [...]
  8. Melie Bianco Loop Tote | Textured Architectural Large Handbag - 2010-05-04 08:13:49-04
    Melie Bianco are the undisputed gods of all things structural and gorgeous. Even better, they don't cost as much as you may well expect. This synthetic leather tote is a case in point. No pun intended, despite the fact that its formal design is actually quite close to a laptop case or even a briefcase. The [...]
  9. Lanvin Birthday Canvas Tote | Bright And Cheerful Limited Edition Designer Tote - 2010-05-04 15:42:18-04
    Lanvin's unique brand of French chic usually outshines the competition. Which is why when I look at this Birthday tote, I just have to wonder what's going on. Did someone spike the designer's cafe au lait with mediocrity or what? The Birthday tote looks like a Hallmark card. Not in a kitschy, self-conscious way, either. It [...]
  10. Diane von Furstenberg Beach Glazed Canvas Tote | Practical And Fun Colorful Animal Print Beach Bag - 2010-05-04 19:00:38-04
    Diane von Furstenberg recently released a line of printed beach totes that are cheerful and perfect for summer. She has always had a way with prints, and this line is no exception. I love the multicolored leopard spots on this tote. The color scheme has an almost 80's graffiti feel to it, but it doesn't look [...]
  11. Mellow World Juliet Satchel Handbag | Pleated Faux Leather Purse with Tie Accent - 2010-05-05 02:05:35-04
    Shakespeare's favorite heroine has joined the 21st century with this modern Juliet satchel. This satchel has a style which is contemporary, yet somehow classic. The pretty angular pleats are more unexpected than vertical ruching. They draw our eye to the center of the bag and its casual tie. I imagine this as a modern alternative to [...]
  12. Shara Porter Stamps Vintage Leather Bags with Ink Illustrations - 2010-05-05 03:05:17-04
    Shara Porter puts her stamp on reclaimed leather goods with her beautiful range of purses. Ms Porter gives vintage leather bags a new lease of life by hand-stamping whimsical illustrations on their bodies. From bumblebees to baby hawks, Shara Porter's sketches are what make her handbags truly special. She says she's inspired by the thrill of the [...]
  13. Mywalit Lava Hobo Bag | Colorful Scalloped Suede Handbag - 2010-05-05 04:05:51-04
    Mywalit's always been a brand that loved color, but it might have outdone itself with this Lava hobo bag. To say this hobo is colorful is an understatement. Vibrant scalloped swatches are overlaid to create this hobo's vivid retro pattern. These bold hues are bordered by rich purple Italian leather panels. These sides help to soften [...]
  14. Twisted Twee Releases Eco-Friendly Shoppers for Manly Men - 2010-05-05 05:05:13-04
    Men are an oft-forgotten market in the world of eco-friendly shopping bags. It's almost as if designers don't imagine a man would ever venture into a supermarket. Why else would they adorn environmentally friendly totes with floral prints and girly slogans? Thankfully Twisted Twee look set to reverse the trend with its cheeky new collection of [...]
  15. Prada Releases Limited Edition Tote Bags for Shanghai World Expo - 2010-05-05 05:05:54-04
    Prada has released an oriental inspired limited edition handbag collection to celebrate the opening of Shanghai World Expo. But should Miuccia Prada have bothered? Honestly, these bags featuring the Shanghai skyline and a springtime scene seem more than a little uninspired. Apparently the designer was motivated to create a range reflecting "21st century urban life," but [...]
  16. Coccinelle Mary Grommets Hobo | Medium Mustard Leather Purse with Cute Bow - 2010-05-05 06:05:49-04
    Coccinelle marries preppy chic with edgy grommets to create this eye-catching Mary hobo bag. As with any metallic embellishment, grommets tend to make a purse look edgy and dangerous. But Coccinelle balances the look with buttery soft leather and a cutesy bow. Rather than appearing confused, as so often bags combining different accents can, Coccinelle creates [...]
  17. Hobo International Wilhelmina Satchel | Quilted and Topstitched Retro Tote - 2010-05-05 08:17:43-04
    Wow, what a bag. You certainly won't miss this one if you walk past it! Subtlety really isn't the aim of this funky Hobo International satchel. Instead, its bright color and bold retro design harp back to the brave and bold era that encompassedthe 60s and 70s. Can you see the similarities to some of the [...]
  18. Badgley Mischka Couture Nikki Clutch | Luxury Patent Leather Evening Bag - 2010-05-05 17:07:35-04
    We may be used to seeing larger bags from luxury handbag design, Badgley Mischka. However, if the Nikki clutch is anything to go by they are just as much of a force to be reckoned with in the evening bag domain. OK, so what is so impressive about this bag? The design is, after all, extraordinarily [...]
  19. Tusk Safari Duffel Bag | Classic Large Brown Japanese Leather Travel Handbag - 2010-05-06 02:05:42-04
    You might not intend to brave the wilds of Africa, but this Safari bag from Tusk can still take care of your travel needs. This is a bag that's easy to overlook; its boxy shape isn't out of the ordinary and while the pebbled leather is beautiful, the conservative choices of black and chocolate brown seem [...]
  20. Louis Vuitton Joins SOS Children's Villages for New Charity Program - 2010-05-06 03:05:26-04
    Luxury fashion house Louis Vuitton is giving back through a new partnership with SOS Children's Villages. The five-year deal will see the French label work with the charity to create a new initiative known as Partnership for Children's Future. The program will benefit children living in SOS Children's Villages, little ones who have been orphaned, abandoned, [...]
  21. Jesselli Couture North/South Tote Bag | Angular Pleated Nappa Leather Handbag - 2010-05-06 04:05:37-04
    Jesselli Couture takes a break from its typical patterned bags with this gorgeous pleated north/south tote. The knife pleat detail makes this fairly simple tote look very modern. These angular seams do all the talking, at least on the front. What a shame that this is yet another handbag which doesn't continue the design throughout. While [...]
  22. Chanel Launches Heritage Handbag Exhibition at New York Flagship Store - 2010-05-06 05:05:59-04
    As we were reminded by Millward Brown Optimor's study last week, nothing says luxury like heritage. Clearly Chanel has taken note, as it will launch its the Secrets of the Chanel Handbag exhibition in New York next week. The exhibit, at Chanel's East 57th Street flagship boutique, will reveal how Chanel handbags are made, and how [...]
  23. Ananas Loulou Shoulder Bag | Gray Drawstring Leather Handbag - 2010-05-06 06:05:05-04
    I always respect a brand that dares to be different. And there's nothing predictable about the Loulou shoulder bag by Ananas. While pushing the envelope always garners a degree of respect, I'm not always enthusiastic about the results of these fashion risks. The Loulou unfortunately is one of those bags that fails to get my blood [...]
  24. Pietro Alessandro Tie Dye Hobo | Exotic and Expensive Hippy Bag - 2010-05-06 08:21:49-04
    Hippy style tie-dyed bags never really go out of fashion for the summer, and this Pietro Alessandro version is just the ticket for pairing with Maxi dresses for long days spent on the beach. Whilst the cool fresh colors and delicious buttery soft leather make this a very upmarket choice for a tie-dye bag, I do wonder [...]
  25. Summer Styling for the Melie Bianco Loop Tote | Look Cool and Casual With Our Fashion Hints - 2010-05-06 09:44:43-04
    Have you ever seen a handbag that you love, but not known how to style it? If so, then you could probably use a few styling ideas to set you off on the right foot. These 'How to Wear' posts will aim to do just that: to give you a few fashion ideas to inspire [...]
  26. Jimmy Choo Tita Snakeskin Suede Fringe Bag | Gorgeous Snakeskin Shoulder Bag With Boho Fringe Detail - 2010-05-06 19:11:32-04
    Jimmy Choo's latest line of handbags might be my favorite of the season. I'm not a huge Choo fan, generally, but he's really killing it right now. The Tita shoulder bag is a perfect example. Snakeskin and suede fringe are two great tastes that taste great together. And the taupe snakeskin on this bag is particularly [...]
  27. Abas Claire Zippered Wallet | Girly Pink Croco Leather Wallet - 2010-05-07 02:05:44-04
    When I hear the name Claire, I instantly think of Molly Ringwald's pampered character from The Breakfast Club. And something tells me Ms Standish would love to carry this pretty in pink wallet to the mall! Of course, pink crocodile textured leather will never suit everyone. It's a very distinct look, meant to appeal to the [...]
  28. Hand Crafted FuchstBags are Functional, Chic, and Stylish - 2010-05-07 03:05:10-04
    Fledgling label FuchstBags is turning heads with its sophisticated range of handmade purses. The line is the work of Mandy Ng, who says the brand's name is an abbreviation of her bags' greatest attributes: functional, chic, and stylish! FuchstBags are made to suit the lifestyles of real women, from the small leather clutches to the practical [...]
  29. Aldo Lienemann Tote Bag | Inexpensive Bold Electric Blue Synthetic Carryall Handbag - 2010-05-07 04:05:03-04
    I'm always amazed by the prices Aldo charges for its bags. You can pick them up for next to nothing, yet they always look great and do the job. Of course, for just $50 we don't expect a fabric that's too flash. But the synthetic Aldo employs doesn't have that glossy look of a lesser quality [...]
  30. Affordable Products Drive Hermes Sales Increase for First Quarter - 2010-05-07 05:05:23-04
    Just as the world is wondering whether Greece's financial woes will translate into another international crash, Hermes has released some promising sales figures. The French fashion house increased its first quarter sales by 19%, which translates to a jump of around $651 million. It was even better news at Hermes' boutiques, which reported a 26% sales [...]
  31. Alexis Hudson Isis Clutch | Sophisticated Snake Embossed Leather Evening Purse - 2010-05-07 06:05:45-04
    What an exotic creature this Isis clutch is. You'd never guess it wasn't made of authentic snake! This is one for all the reptile activists out there, and the girls who prefer to count their pennies. The leather has been softly embossed with smoldering serpentine spots. It's one of the best impersonators I've seen, and honestly [...]
  32. Fossil Candy Applique Wristlet | Cute and Tiny Owl Purse - 2010-05-07 08:11:14-04
    We have already seen the flower version of this Fossil wristlet, but I just had to share this adorable owl version with y'all. Applique is always fun, if not particularly formal. It can make any handbag or coin purse into something cute and fun, although even the addition of diamante couldn't manage to make it evening appropriate. [...]
  33. American West Rock Star Zip Top Tote | Edgy Black Hand-Tooled Leather Handbag - 2010-05-08 02:05:01-04
    American West attempts to get in touch with its inner musician with this Rock Star tote. All the right elements are there; edgy black leather, gleaming silver studs, and bold buckles. But somewhere American West's vision goes awry. At the heart of it, we see that American West is more Willie Nelson than Mick Jagger. You [...]
  34. Vanessa Paradis Models for Chanel Cocoon Handbags Advertisement - 2010-05-08 03:05:14-04
    When I heard Vanessa Paradis would replace Brit pop brat Lily Allen as the face of the Chanel Cocoon collection, I had no doubt that Johnny Depp's main squeeze would be a perfect fit. She's a Chanel regular after all, and she's been spending time in front of the camera since she was a teen. But [...]
  35. Ananas Olivia Shoulder Bag | Bone Colored Structured Hobo with Wooden Accent - 2010-05-08 04:05:50-04
    I'm always hesitant to spend money on a pale pastel handbag. I love the way these pristine purses look, but I'm convinced I'll only be disappointed later. I tend to put my handbags through their paces, so I'm sure their luxury leathers will look grubby before too long. Yet the Olivia by Ananas has caught [...]
  36. Mee a Bee Makes Cute Eco-Friendly Messenger Bags for Boys and Girls - 2010-05-08 05:05:49-04
    We all know messenger bags are a cute and casual way to carry about your everyday essentials, but why should us adults have all the fun? Eco-friendly brand Mee a Bee creates adorable messenger bags for kids. Their colorfully printed bodies, featuring fun designs with trains, ballerinas, and ladybugs, are sure to impress little ones. Meanwhile [...]
  37. Timmy Woods Tissie Tote | Floral Beaded Novelty Bag - 2010-05-08 12:45:29-04
    We are used to seeing exceptionally unusual novelty bags from designer Timmy Woods. Comparatively, this beaded tote is quite normal, quite subtle. However, when you get up close to this purse, you realise that what looks from a distance like some form of embroidered patchwork is actually a huge amount of beading. Each flower is a [...]
  38. J. Furmani Satin Evening Bag | Affordable Art Deco Clutch - 2010-05-09 13:48:15-04
    Pretty evening bags that cost less than $40 don't come along very often - making this J. Furmani purse quite a rare species! Art Deco design seems to be creeping back up in the popularity stakes this year, rebelling against the flowers and patterns that have been so on-trend of late. For me this is a [...]
  39. Joe's Jeans Amber Bowler | Crinkled Leather Tote Bag - 2010-05-09 17:19:16-04
    Celebrate utility chic with this functional Joe's Jeans bowling bag. Whilst often bowlers are dramatically over decorated, the Amber is the very opposite. Interest is added by the contrasting textures of the leather, but other than that it is left to speak for itself. It is, consequently, quite an industrial design, and one that will pair [...]
  40. Lanvin Cuir Tente Sac Pochette Bag | Elegant Black Leather Shoulder Bag With Ribbon Threaded Chain Strap - 2010-05-09 19:58:29-04
    Lanvin makes elegant, sophisticated pieces that somehow also work with cutting edge styles. They strike a perfect balance between making the trends and honoring tradition. This Cuir Tente Sac Pochette is the perfect example. The Cuir Tente has a modern classic look with a lot of well-thought out bells and whistles. The shape is sleek and [...]
  41. Juicy Couture Satchel Style Leather Hobo | Hip And Practical Orange Distressed Leather Hobo - 2010-05-09 22:00:01-04
    Juicy Couture makes affordable, fashion-forward accessories for young, urban women. I am not always a fan of their often blinged out, ostentatious style, but when they take things down a notch, the results can be amazing. This satchel style hobo is a great example of Juicy at their finest. The distressed orange leather is eye-catching, but [...]
  42. New Shopping Website Got Briefcases Sells Business Bags - 2010-05-09 23:53:03-04
    Businessmen and women looking to update their office look need search no further than new shopping website Got Briefcases. The site features a collection of business-like bags, travel cases, laptop handbags, and of course, briefcases. It's ideal for those who love brand names, with labels like Samsonite, Moonsus, McKlein USA, and many more all represented. Some find [...]
  43. Judith Leiber Wildcat Crystal-Embellished Clutch | Fabulous Sprakling Crystal Jaguar Evening Bag - 2010-05-10 01:00:57-04
    I hereby want to rescind everything I've ever said about Judith Leiber's crystal clutches being tacky or over-the-top. This jaguar is fierce and amazing and obviously a work of art. I've not always been a fan of Leiber's designs, but I am really warming up to them. I guess I'm starting to realize how tongue-in-cheek and [...]
  44. Anne Klein Lasso Hobo | Medium Sized Sophisticated Structured Pebble Leather Handbag - 2010-05-10 01:06:32-04
    Its name may remind us of rodeos and the dust of the Wild West, but this Lasso hobo from Anne Klein looks like a city girl at heart. There's a gentle slouch to its pebble leather body, but this isn't the boho bag most hobos are. It's an elegant creature, whose high quality skin works with [...]
  45. Go Gaga for Fair Trade Eco-Friendly Gondala Diaper Bags - 2010-05-10 01:21:31-04
    Go Gaga The Gondola Bag from GoGo Baby Gear is a great diaper bag option for eco-friendly moms and dads. The baby bags are made from almost 75% post-consumer recycled fabric by a fair-trade certified manufacturer in Vietnam. That should satisfy green parents, but it's the features that will impress in the long term. The sling-like [...]
  46. Anuschka Nirvana Hobo Handbag | Medium Handpainted Art Leather Purse - 2010-05-10 01:55:09-04
    With art bags enjoying a recent revival, it's worth revisiting the handpainted charms of Anuschka. One of the brand's most recent designs is called the Nirvana. While it's available on a range of purses, I think my favorite is this medium-sized hobo. The key to this purse is its simplicity. On a blank canvas of high [...]
  47. Ashley M Cindy Ruffle Satchel | Bold Blue Rosette Bag - 2010-05-10 02:48:56-04
    What a fabulously fun and frothy bag Ashley M has created in the Cindy Ruffle Satchel. There's certainly no guessing where it got its name from; the Cindy is literally covered in large ruffled rosettes. As if these didn't make the satchel girly enough, Ashley M has dotted the center of each bloom with tiny twisted [...]
  48. Reusable Tote Handbags Replace Plastic Bags for Modern Shoppers - 2010-05-10 03:05:52-04
    The plastic shopping bag may go the way of the dinosaur, as the popularity of reusable tote bags rises. And it seems retailers are embracing the shift. "Retailers are getting ahead of this curve," said Dan Sabbah of Global Way, a company which makes tote bags from recycled water bottles. His organization shipped hundreds of thousands [...]
  49. B. Makowsky Lites Olympia Cross-Body Bag | Studded Leather Raspberry Pink Purse - 2010-05-10 04:05:19-04
    B. Makowsky reinterprets the current studded trend in a fun feminine way to create the Olympia Cross-Body bag. Rather than using the studs to add edge, B. Makowsky uses a much lighter touch. By smattering small, shiny studs around the external zips, B. Makowsky makes these practical pockets seem much more appealing. Suddenly they're a design [...]
  50. Summer Handbag Trends Predicted | Cross-Body Bags, Hobos, and Totes Big Next Season - 2010-05-10 05:05:25-04
    A new season means a new opportunity to spruce up our wardrobe. As spring weather warms, trend forecasters have released their predictions for the hottest handbag styles this summer. Just as the temperatures soar, so will the popularity of the cross-body purse. Compact cross-body bags are prized for their organizational features, while larger styles work well [...]
  51. Rampage Glazed Leather Oversized Clutch | Huge Decorative Handbag - 2010-05-10 08:04:18-04
    Over-sized clutches can be a bit of a problem child for handbag designers. You need them to look great and have lots of space, but at the same time you need them to be easy to carry. I think  Rampage have done quite well in meeting both of these requirements with this glazed leather purse. Looks-wise, [...]
