- Carlo Fellini Tuscany Clutch | Feather Embellished Satin Wallet - 2010-05-31 17:17:22-04
Feathers, when not over-used, can make a beautiful decoration for a little satin purse. It is the strange pale yellow colored satin fabric that makes the little feathers work so well. That sherbet shade is the perfect counterpart to the fluffy brown, white and gray of the feathers. The soft ruffles of the bow too continue [...]
- Alexander Wang Jena Laser Cut Leather Clutch | Ultra Chic Brown Leather Envelope Clutch With Zipper Detail - 2010-05-31 18:26:26-04
Alexander Wang's accessories are instant classics. Not in a Chanel or Louis Vuitton sort of way, more in like a Blondie or Iggy Pop sort of a way. But his designs aren't all rock-n-roll with no holds barred. Instead they're a great balance of elegant and edgy. This Jena clutch is the perfect example. First of [...]
- J. Renee Fleur Clutch | Dramatic Snakeskin Flap Evening Purse - 2010-05-31 23:57:35-04
J. Renee shows us that a dramatic purse need not cost the earth with the Fleur clutch. For less than $100 you can enjoy this striking clutch. It's not surprising that this price doesn't buy genuine leather, but the manmade material makes a pretty convincing patent alternative. The glossy black body is offset by a head-turning [...]
- J. Tiras Beverly Purse | Glitzy Crystal Embellished Evening Bag - 2010-06-01 02:05:36-04
We've drooled over J. Tiras' pretty clutch purses, and now we see what the designer can do with a shoulder bag. The Beverly is a great option for girls who prefer a hands-free accessory when they're hitting the town. The simple boxy shape is jazzed up with thousands of tiny, sparkling crystals. The glittering gems complement [...]
- Lady Gaga Defaces Hermes Birkin Bag … Now With Studs! - 2010-06-01 03:05:32-04
Lady Gaga is at it again; defacing Hermes Birkin bags that is! Not two months after she was spotted carrying a white Hermes Birkin with some hand-drawn Japanese character, she was snapped carrying an edgy black studded version! No one's really sure whether Lady Gaga ordered this one or did the job herself, but I'd vote [...]
- Jack Georges Belting Collection Classic Briefbag | Traditional High Quality Leather Briefcase - 2010-06-01 04:05:54-04
Briefcases are rarely the bags to send our hearts fluttering, but for any woman climbing the corporate ladder they're a necessary evil. While a case like the Belting Briefbag might not work for after office cosmos, it's the perfect bag for the boardroom. This Jack Georges briefcase is traditionally styled, but its high quality materials help [...]
- Jalda Croc-Embossed Crescent Evening Bag | Chic Leather Hobo Purse - 2010-06-01 06:05:07-04
Jalda shows us that evening bags don't need sequins or spangles to attract attention with this croc-embossed crescent purse. It might not have the bling of so many other evening accessories, but this Jalda purse definitely doesn't miss it. The scales of the croc embossed leather are just as attractive as any beads. They bring a [...]
- RedCamper Recycles Old Travel Slides for Eco-Friendly Totes and Laptop Bags - 2010-06-01 06:05:28-04
Before the days of sharing travel photos on Facebook or over e-mail, families used to gather around for slide nights. Watching projections of still images might sound pretty primitive these days, but once upon time they were the best the way to share stories of your travels. RedCamper remembers the good old days with its collection [...]
- Envirosax Mikado Shopping Pouch | Environmentally Friendly Reusable Bags - 2010-06-01 17:52:16-04
The world is full of environmentally friendly reusable shopping bags at the moment, as an alternative to the plastic or paper bags that most of us use and then throw away. The problem with these totes has always been that you generally need more than one when you go shopping. Which, in turn, means that you [...]
- Jesselli Couture Travel Tote | Large Paisley Print Fabric Handbag - 2010-06-02 02:05:55-04
Jesselli Couture gets us ready for our summer holidays with this large travel tote. While many of the brand's totes have been structured leather creations, this fabric version is a much more casual affair. The oversized paisley print gives this traditional pattern a modern feel which works well with the tote's gently slouchy shape. The fabric has [...]
- Jeremy Scott Designs Narcissistic Limited Edition Bag for Longchamp - 2010-06-02 03:05:19-04
French leather goods label Longchamp has again teamed up with frequent collaborator Jeremy Scott for this cheeky canvas bag. The handbag is a tribute to the New York designer himself, with the body bearing badges printed with Jeremy Scott's name and likeness. It shows the sort of arrogance usually reserved for the Karl Lagerfields of the [...]
- Jessica Jensen Thruway Tote | Traditional Light Brown Woven Leather Handbag - 2010-06-02 04:05:08-04
Jessica Jensen takes her typical tote shape and gives it a lush woven texture with this Thruway bag. It might have a classic style, but this tote bucks the trends by opting for a large up and down weave rather than a more tightly knit diagonal one. I love this point of difference, which allows us [...]
- Selfridges Releases Limited Edition Eco-Friendly Bottletop Bags for Charity - 2010-06-02 05:05:25-04
British retail giant Selfridges has teamed up with UK charity Bottletop to offer eco-friendly handbags that give back. As their name suggests, Bottletop bags are crafted from recycled bottle-tops rescued from waste and crocheted together by communities in need. The brand's creator Cameron Saul should know a thing or two about handbags, as his father Roger Saul [...]
- Jessica McClintock Flap Clutch | Frame Purse with Stone Snap and Rhinestones - 2010-06-02 06:05:40-04
Jessica McClintock offers restrained elegance, and just a hint of bling, with this gorgeous flap clutch. This purse is a curious mix, and one that I think really works. Most clutches so simply designed do away with frills and frippery altogether, but that's not the case here. It's feminine, but subtly so with the satiny body [...]
- Rafe Maryanne Dramatic Minaudiere | Stunning Panelled Evening Bag - 2010-06-02 08:23:56-04
There are handbags that are functional, and then there are handbags that are art. This Rafe clutch definitely falls in the category of art and sculpture! I hate to say it, but you can see why this purse costs a mighty $495. OK, so that is a lot of money, but this is truly unique. I [...]
- Jessica Simpson Escape Hobo | Classic Slouchy Style Synthetic Handbag - 2010-06-03 02:05:46-04
If you're planning a great escape this summer, you'll need a great handbag by your side. Jessica Simpson delivers one with this Escape hobo. At first glance this appears like so many other hobos. It has all the trademarks of this classic boho bag: the eye-catching crescent shape, and the gentle slouch. But the high quality [...]
- Joy Fabiano Releases Eco-Friendly Summer Bags Made from Kimono Silk - 2010-06-03 03:05:23-04
Eco-friendly designer Rachel Sanches has been inspired by the Far East for her latest Joy Fabiano handbag collection. The Asian-infused summer line features vintage Japanese kimono silks paired with soft repurposed leather and organic fabrics. The combination sees Joy Fabiano move in a new, more sophisticated direction which, says Ms Sanches, better encompasses the brand's flirty, [...]
- JJ Winters Rhino Clutch | Silver Three Zipper Purse - 2010-06-03 04:05:19-04
JJ Winters delivers a clutch with edge in this Rhino bag. While many designers are adding attitude through studs and grommets, JJ Winters prefers zips. That's nothing new; we saw the designer play with the hardware on the suede multi-zip bag. But while the zips appeared awkward there, here it all comes together. That makes the [...]
- Anya Hindmarch Launches Personalized Bridal Bags at London Boutique - 2010-06-03 05:05:00-04
British designer Anya Hindmarch has launched a new range of personalized bridal bags to coincide with the start of wedding season. Each satin purse is embroidered with the bride's initials and the date of her special day, so they make wonderful keepsakes. For an additional cost, a handwritten note can also be sewn into the purse's [...]
- Joe's Jeans Jude Mini Crossbody Bag | Casual Lambskin Everyday Handbag - 2010-06-03 06:05:52-04
Joe's Jeans delivers casual style for girls on the go with this Jude cross-body bag. The Jude has the kind of cool, relaxed style that Joe's Jeans is famous for. The label knows its fans, and this military style purse that shuns feminine features for everyday style is just what they love. But the color palette [...]
- Studded Slouchy Santi Clutch | Decorative Luxury Evening Bag - 2010-06-03 08:29:16-04
Santi don't half make good slouchy pouch bags. They seem to get the balance of flowing fabric and shape perfectly weighted. This delicately studded bag is no exception to the rule. It is just so... pretty. Whilst many studded purses tend to be edgy and rocky, this one uses tiny lentil sized studs that look more like sequins. [...]
- Marc Jacobs 2010 Rockstar Clutch | Sleek Black Leather And Gold Houndstooth Trophy Bag - 2010-06-03 18:29:35-04
I probably don't need to reiterate how much I love Marc Jacobs. His version of American fashion is iconic. But this season's accessories have been a little so-so as far as I'm concerned. The 2010 Rockstar clutch is a pretty good example of how the line is frustrating me. First off, naming the bag Rockstar creates [...]
- Juicy Couture Velour French Wallet | Lagoon Blue Croc Embossed Purse - 2010-06-04 02:05:28-04
I haven't always been the biggest fan of Juicy Couture's accessories, but the brand's Velour French Wallet has a certain something. This purse strikes the balance between Juicy Couture's trademark style and something a bit more fashion forward. I'm shocked that the brand's classic velour actually works in this croc embossed texture. It could so easily [...]
- Katharine Hamnett Designs Save the Sea Summer Collection for Yooxygen - 2010-06-04 03:05:50-04
London-based designer Katharine Hamnett is behind a politically-charged new summer collection for eco-friendly retailer Yooxygen. Considering the current BP oil spill clean-up, the "Save the Sea" collection is a timely reminder of the importance of this precious natural resource. "The sea that we all love is dying due to the impact of human activities such as [...]
- Kate Spade Brooklyn Heights Lori Hobo | Chic Modern Pebbled Leather Handbag - 2010-06-04 04:05:10-04
Kate Spade brings a little New York style to the humble hobo bag with the Brooklyn Heights Lori. She's a modern city gal, a bag who bears all of the trademarks of a hobo, just with a bit more polish. That's helped along by the rich pebbled leather body, a fabric which gives the bag much [...]
- Pierre Hardy Releases Superman Tote for DC Comics 75th Anniversary - 2010-06-04 05:05:24-04
Pierre Hardy is celebrating the 75th anniversary of DC Comics with this limited edition Superman bag. The tote featured Pierre Hardy's favorite new print, an optical illusion with stacked cubes. While that might not inspire comic book geeks, the Superman logo and a racing stripe in the same blue as his suit definitely will. It's an [...]
- Kathy Van Zeeland All Star Shopper | Black Synthetic Silver Studded Handbag - 2010-06-04 06:05:36-04
Kathy Van Zeeland serves up studs, studs, and more studs with this All Star Shopper. Clearly the kind of star Kathy Van Zeeland is channeling is the edgy, rocker type. The combination of shiny black synthetic and gleaming silver hardware oozes all the attitude of a music icon like Mick Jagger or Jim Morrison. But unlike [...]
- freeBird by The Sak Cross-Body | Intermixed Woven Affordable Bag - 2010-06-04 07:06:05-04
I like the freeBird by The SAK bags, they have a certain rustic and boho vibe, whilst at the same time being quite affordable. At just $59 this bag is no exception. The shape of this purse suggests that it is all about function. Square shapes may not be all that innovative, but they do make [...]
- Melie Bianco Pleated Clutch | Summery Yellow Ruched Purse - 2010-06-04 08:25:47-04
Yellow! Light summery daffodil yellow! The wearableness (if it isn't a word, it darn well should be) of this pale yellow shade is what sets this Melie Bianco clutch apart from the crowd. Most yellow bags tend to be a bit bold. A bit too bright. They stand out from every color around them with a "Oy! [...]
- Kavu Seattle Sling Shoulder Bag | Practical Striped Canvas Purse - 2010-06-05 02:05:54-04
Kavu delivers functionality without the flash in this Seattle Sling Bag. The outdoorsy brand rarely turns my head, but I love the fun striped canvases Kavu has used here. Traditionalists will be happy to see plain black and khaki in the range, but these stripy prints are much more interesting. They help to jazz up the [...]
- Prada Goes Green with Reusable Shopping B.Y.O. Bags - 2010-06-05 03:05:22-04
It seems more and more people are going green these days, shunning plastic grocery bags for reusable totes. Now one of our favorite luxury labels, Prada, is getting in on the act. The Prada B.Y.O bags are generously sized and lightweight at just five ounces each. However as is the case with all the best reusable [...]
- KC Malhan 74 Max Clutch | Colorful Beaded Tribal Purse - 2010-06-05 04:05:04-04
I hear that tribal patterns are set to become the next big thing in fashion. If that's true, this bold Max clutch from KC Malhan is well placed to become a style trendsetter. The first thing I thought when I spotted this brightly colored purse is that it could be some kind of primitive game of [...]
- Vegan Brand Bourgeois Boheme Adds Handbag to Accessories Line - 2010-06-05 05:05:23-04
Vegan footwear brand Bourgeois Boheme has expanded its line to include some gorgeous ethical handbags. These bags prove that you don't need to harm animals to create stylish accessories. The vegan skin is a convincing leather mimic, with its soft supple texture and classic look. The Bourgeois Boheme line is right on trend too, with accents [...]
- Latico P.S. Envelope Clutch | Burnt Orange Patent Purse - 2010-06-05 13:31:56-04
We don't get many clutches in this particular shade of burnt orange, but I think we should have more! The Latico P.S. clutch is a fiery beauty, perfect for wearing on romantic summer evenings, or even in cold snowy weather. The color is emphasised by the simple envelope clutch shape and the gentle but classy patent [...]
- Kate Spade London Quinn Tote | Traditional and Simple Leather Hold-all - 2010-06-05 14:18:25-04
Nothing beats a really good quality black leather bag for versatility and effortless timeless style. However, would you willing to pay $375 for one as simple as this Kate Spade version? Don't get me wrong. The Quinn tote is undoubtedly a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. The leather is thick and sturdy, with just the right amount [...]
- Kenneth Cole Reaction Wash N Fold Hobo | Black Crinkle Leatherette Handbag - 2010-06-06 21:43:07-04
Kenneth Cole gives the hobo a little rock and roll flair with this Wash N Fold bag. Rather than covering the hobo in studs or spikes, Kenneth Cole's rock and roll vibe is much more subtle. It comes from the casual crinkled leatherette (in black, naturally), which slouches with a devil-may-care attitude. That relaxed crinkled fabric [...]
- Joy Bryant Designs Botkier Charity Satchel for Oxfam America - 2010-06-06 23:23:11-04
American actress and Oxfam America's Sisters on the Planet ambassador Joy Bryant has teamed up with Monica Botkier to create a charity bag bearing their names. Half of the proceeds from sales of the Botkier Joy satchel will benefit Oxfam America and its initiatives, including Joy's beloved Sisters on the Planet program. "It's an initiative engaging [...]
- Kenneth Jay Lane Fraise de Bois Handbag | Black Haircalf Evening Bag with Strawberry Charm - 2010-06-06 23:35:46-04
At first glance this Kenneth Jay Lane handbag looks like any mild-mannered black evening purse. But there's more to the Fraise de Bois than meets the eye. I've never really warmed to haircalf bags, until now. Rather than appearing tacky, the fur in basic black is sumptuous and alluring, like a thick, plush velvet. It just [...]
- Tourist Fined For Buying Counterfeit Louis Vuitton Bag in Italy - 2010-06-07 00:36:42-04
If you always thought purchasing a counterfeit designer bag was simply an affordable way to enjoy luxury looks, this story may make you think twice. A 65-year-old Austrian woman has been fined €1000 after purchasing an imitation Louis Vuitton purse in Italy. The woman acquired the faux LV for just €7 from a Senegalese hawker. According [...]
- Kooba Drew Tote | Modern Flap Accented Italian Leather Handbag - 2010-06-07 02:05:18-04
Kooba sets a new trend with the Drew Tote. While most often leather flaps are functional features, helping to protect a purse's main compartment from prying eyes and sticky fingers, here they're used as decorative accents. These quirky details remind me a little of the sides of a jacket collar; it's not something I thought I'd [...]
- L.A.M.B. Worthington Satchel | Fluorescent Colored Lamb Print Purse - 2010-06-07 04:05:48-04
With its vivid colors and graphic print, this Worthington satchel could only have come from the house of L.A.M.B. While the style is typical of Gwen Stefani's label, it does seem to take its cues from Europe. The Y-shaped zipper appears to imitate the look of so many Yves Saint Laurent handbags, although here the feature [...]
- Walmart Refuses to Settle in Lead Handbag Court Case - 2010-06-07 05:10:00-04
A year after the Center for Environmental Health filed a lawsuit against many major retailers for selling lead-tainted handbags and wallets, almost half have settled with the Californian watchdog. Major retailers like Target, Kmart, Macy's, and Sears are all prepared to comply with new restrictions which will limit the use of lead in accessories. But Walmart [...]
- La Regale Mesh Mini Hobo Bag | Affordable Glitzy Evening Purse - 2010-06-07 06:05:38-04
La Regale has taken the humble hobo bag, shrunken it down, and added a dash of glitz to create this evening ready mini hobo bag. The secret is the body, which in silvery mesh shimmers and sparkles as it catches the moonlight. The metal plates don't slouch in the way a soft fabric or leather might, [...]
- Kwytza Kraft Turns Used Chopsticks Into Cute Handbags - 2010-06-07 07:30:15-04
It seems these days handbags are made from just about any material imaginable in efforts to reduce landfill and save the planet. Now we can add used chopsticks to the mix. Kwytza means chopsticks in Chinese, so it's no surprise that Kwytza Kraft turns these Asian eating implements into eco-friendly purses. If the idea of carrying [...]
- J.Renee Gretel Polka Dot Clutch | Cute Patterned Evening Bag - 2010-06-07 08:13:01-04
Polka dots, or donuts? When you see a cute dotty purse with holes in the middle of the dots, these are the sorts of questions that you have to ask. The Gretel clutch is very cute, and a little twee. What with Glee being quite so popular at the moment, I am willing to bet that [...]
