Hi mary,

Check out the latest handbag fashion news and review at BagBunch.com:
  1. Roxy Carolina Hobo | Animal Print Accented Cotton Casual Bag - 2010-06-21 06:05:28-04
    If you're not brave enough to carry a handbag completed covered in leopard print, this more subtle Carolina hobo from Roxy may be right up your alley. Rather than being the main attraction, Roxy has used the spotted synthetic to trim the external zippered pockets. It's an embellishment which adds strength and style, a doubly appealing [...]
  2. Miu Miu Slouchy Leather Bowling Bag | Refined Chocolate Brown Pebbled Leather Shoulder Bag - 2010-06-21 14:57:33-04
    Miu Miu's usually edgy aesthetic has seemed a lot more pared down to me, lately. They seem to be attempting to grab a larger demographic. This bowling bag has some of Miu Miu's usual charm, but in it's attempt at refinement, some of the quirky appeal has been lost. The rich chocolatey brown leather has a [...]
  3. Fossil Ari Patchwork Hobo | Bright Tribal Patterned Tote - 2010-06-21 16:42:09-04
    Be warned - don't look directly at this hobo as you may well go blind! OK, OK, so maybe I am being a little unfair. After all, I have certainly seen brighter colored bags, and ones with bigger, badder and generally worse combinations of prints. However, it is pretty much undeniable that this is one bright and [...]
  4. Marni Studded Suede Cross-Body Bag | Boho Chic Black Suede Back With Stud Detail - 2010-06-21 21:55:33-04
    Boho chic just doesn't seem to want to disappear. It has evolved a lot since it's inception several years ago, and bags like this keep it going strong. This suede cross-body bag by Marni isn't the overdone, over-embellished boho of season's past. It has a sleeker, more polished, more wearable look for everyday. The black suede [...]

    Tory Burch's latest line of accessories has been remarkably street savvy for the usually upper crust designer. She has brought her signature minimal elegance to a host of bohemian and rocker designs, and the effect is fabulous. Point in case is this Sawla fringed messenger bag. The luxe purple leather is bright enough to become a [...]
  6. Salvatore Ferragamo Revival Briefcase | Brown Italian Leather Double-Gusset Office Bag - 2010-06-22 02:05:26-04
    If you're after a classic briefcase with a side order of luxury, this Revival bag from Salvatore Ferragamo should fit the bill. To the uninitiated this looks like so many other office bags. But to the discerning eye, the Revival is a thing of real beauty. Its body is made from classic pebbled leather in timeless [...]

It's made from denier twill polyamide, a fabric which isn't as [...]

  10. Santi Rebecca Clutch | Colorful Retro Patchwork Synthetic Purse - 2010-06-22 06:05:51-04
    In a sea of delicate evening purses, a daring clutch like the Rebecca really stands out from the pack. There's no missing this style statement with its vivid rainbow colored swatches. These textured asymmetrical pieces bring a bold sense of retro fun. The hot pink gemstone clasp even reminds me of a disco ball. It's a [...]
  11. Harold Feinstein Large Shopper | Affordable Daisy Tote Bag - 2010-06-22 08:32:40-04
    Finding cute but affordable totes can be quite a challenge, but they do exist! The evidence comes in the form of this simple large black shopper.

  12. Marni Studded Leather Bag | Chic Taupe Handbag With Edgy Grommet Details - 2010-06-22 11:30:49-04
    Marni's take on traditional design is both irreverent and also super feminine. They really have a way with bringing of-the-moment trends to the classics while maintaining their own signature aesthetic. This studded leather bag drives the point home with its cutting edge elegance. The smooth taupe leather is great for summer ensembles, but its neutral versatility [...]
  13. Serpui Marie Cher Tote | Classic Summery Woven Straw Handbag with Leather Handles - 2010-06-23 02:05:13-04
    With a name like the Cher I expected this Serpui Marie tote to be larger than life, just like the show business diva. What a shame it doesn't even come close. There's nothing wrong with a classic bag of course, but this woven straw bag has little to inspire me. Its natural toned fiber and tight [...]

    Hackett has teamed up with travel bag specialists Globe-Trotter to create a luggage range influenced by the best of British style.

    Sondra Roberts gives an elegant twist to the classic satin clutch purse with the Versailles. The traditional soft pouch body is given a little extra something with elegant pleats which create a rich, diamond finish. These aren't perfect diamonds, but softer versions merely suggesting the geometrical shapes. They're subtle, and elegantly eye-catching because of that. Large faceted [...]
  18. Tory Burch Louisa Leather Messenger Bag | Sophisticated And Unusual Tan Leather Messenger With Tassels - 2010-06-23 12:00:17-04
    Tory Burch has been all about the messenger bag this season. It's a side step away from her usually very conservative aesthetic, but she's bring a bit of that Upper East Side look to all of these departures from the status quo. The Louisa is definitely the most posh messenger bag I have ever seen. The [...]
  19. Diane Von Furstenberg Philomena Studded Clutch | Edgy Black on Black Leather Studded Evening Bag - 2010-06-24 00:31:44-04
    Diane Von Furstenberg's classy version of bohemian is pure American chic. Okay, so she's actually German, but she's been here so long that most people consider her to be an American designer. Street smart, but still sophisticated, styles like this Philomena clutch could only come from a European tinged American imagination. The surface of this bag [...]
  20. Jimmy Choo Nica Medium Shoulder Bag | Cool Black Nappa Carryall With Edgy Chain Straps - 2010-06-24 01:59:22-04
    Jimmy Choo has really been surprising me, lately. His latest accessories line has a very downtown feel that I don't ordinarily associate with him. Whether he's following the whims of fashion or forging his own path really isn't important, because the effect has been stunning. This Nica carryall is everything a girl could ask for [...]
  21. Spiegel Bow-Tie Clutch | Adorable Affordable Pink Synthetic Purse - 2010-06-24 02:05:00-04

    Lindsay Lohan has dismissed rumors that she'll bare all to advertise her 6126 handbag collection. The idea did seem a little far fetched considering that Lindsay must wear a SCRAM ankle bracelet to monitor her alcohol consumption at all times. However quotes from insiders stating they were hopeful the device could be removed with police supervision [...]

    Steve Madden pushes the fashion envelope with this surprising Charm School envelope. But is it really as charming as its name suggests? The style is definitely eye-catching, with its pouch shape and gathered body providing a unique alternative to the traditional slouchy crescent. It reminds me of the sort of bag I imagine a goblin or [...]
  26. National Geographic Practical Rucksack | Walkabout Medium Back Pack - 2010-06-24 16:10:25-04
    Handbags aren't all about style. Sometimes they are all about being functional. If you are the sort of person who lives life on the run, then practicality is bound to be near the top of your list of requirements. If you are outdoorsy too then this is the case even more, and that is where the [...]

    Minaudiere style clutches have recently come back into vogue. Lines like Celestina and Judith Leiber offer their own quirky and exotic takes on the small, hard-bodied bags, often at a very dear price. This Diane Von Furstenberg Lytton minaudiere brings the style to a wider audience at a more reasonable price point, but without sacrificing [...]
  29. Marni Tweed Large Tote | Eye-Catching Hot Pink Tweed Carryall With Leather Straps - 2010-06-24 22:00:23-04
    I have to admit from the get-go that I'm not a huge fan of tweed. In wintertime I find it frumpy and in summer I find it incongruous. Now that my bias is out of the way, let's talk about this tote. The hot pink tweed fabric on this bag is meant to be trendy and [...]

There are some great fashion forward looks here, including the on-trend studded black flap bag and cute floral skirt and matching corset top.

  36. See by Chloe Rodas Leather Clutch | Feminine And Chic Black Leather Clutch With Patent Bow Detail - 2010-06-25 18:45:33-04
    Remember all the giant bows of the 80's? It seemed like they were everywhere; in hair, on bags, on belts. Well, I have been beginning to see a lot of them again lately, and I hugely prefer Chloe's sleek version on the Rodas to the variety found in mall kiosks. The smooth matte leather that makes [...]
  37. Diane Von Furstenberg Stephanie Medium Woven Shoulder Bag | Modern Classic Shimmery Metallic Woven Hobo - 2010-06-25 22:00:24-04
    The Diane Von Furstenberg Stephanie hobo is a modern classic. This new version features a few changes including a sleeker strap, larger size, and more subdued color palette than previous versions.

    Los Angeles based handbag designer Elizabeth Carey has been forced to give up the name of her small but successful accessories line Bird, after Juicy Couture swooped in and created its own label under the same name.

  42. Rebecca Minkoff Rocker Cross Body | Dramatic Clutch with Oversized Studs - 2010-06-27 17:56:14-04
    Studs, some people say, have been over-done. They are too much of an ironic statement nowadays to still be truly fashionable. However, I think that as long as you find something new to do with them they can still be pretty cool. This Rebecca Minkoff clutch manages just that - to do something different. That difference [...]
  43. Marni Leather And Quilted Nylon Tote | Unusual Brown And Khaki Tote With Stud Details - 2010-06-27 19:09:12-04
    I should admit from the get-go that I have mixed feelings about this bag. Marni has traditionally been one of my favorite accessories lines, but lately I've been feeling a little bit wishy-washy about them. Perhaps because bags like this leather and quilted nylon tote are a little wishy-washy in and of themselves. This bag just [...]

    There's something classic about a balloon bag that is irresistible. Because it's not classic in a brown leather, old lady handbag sort of a way, it's just a sleek style that has managed to keep returning decade after decade. This waxed leather version by Miu Miu is a great example of what a balloon bag [...]
  45. Tano Tribal Master Messenger Bag | Chic Onyx Black Leather Handbag - 2010-06-27 23:23:28-04
    With a name like the Tribal Master, you might expect this Tano messenger bag to be a mix of ethnic prints and vivid colors. However, in actuality nothing could be further from the truth. Instead this messenger is a picture of restraint, with glazed onyx black leather and just a smattering of hardware. It's a different [...]

Here we've got a surprising geometric quilted body, which makes a lovely [...]

    Tignanello injects some glamour into the traditional boho hobo with its appropriately named Glam bag. But is it really as stylish as it sounds?
