- Marc by Marc Jacobs Embellished Dot Perfect Purse | Preppy Black Suede Bag With Gold Beading - 2010-09-27 18:48:14-04
One of my favorite things about the Marc by Marc Jacobs line is the way it moves from ultra-hip to super preppy all within the same season without sacrificing any of its signature style. That, and the prices are notoriously good for the designer market. This gorgeous Dot Perfect purse lives up to my highest [...]
- Reed Krakoff Leather Ribbon Tote | Sleek And Minimal Green Leather Carryall - 2010-09-27 23:35:35-04
Reed Krakoff's departure from Coach spawned an onslaught of speculation and excitement. Most people were sure that he was going to be able to surpass his work at Coach with his own line, and they were right. The quality of Krakoff's materials and craftsmanship isn't even in the same universe as the mall vendor. This [...]
- Nina Ricci Ondine Gator Shoulder Bag | Classic Luxury Gray Beige Alligator Purse - 2010-09-28 02:05:59-04
Nina Ricci helps you add a little luxury to your everyday with this elegant Ondine Gator shoulder bag. As you might have guessed from the name, that exotic finish comes not from an embossed leather or even the more commonly used crocodile but alligator. At first glance it can be difficult to differentiate between the two [...]
- Be & D Designer's New Bags for QVC | Affordable Roccatella Calfskin Purses - 2010-09-28 03:05:38-04
Be & D's creative director Steve Dumain is launching a brand new accessories line through home shopping network QVC. But he insists that Roccatella isn't a sister range to Be & D, but an entirely new collection. "Selling on QVC is such a nice opportunity to reach a different woman," Dumain told StyleList. "This line is [...]
- Nine West Plain Jane Satchel | Medium Practical Croc Embossed Synthetic Handbag - 2010-09-28 04:05:19-04
You probably won't expect much from a satchel playfully named the Plain Jane, but this Nine West bag is one that might surprise you. Sure it doesn't scream the loudest or have all the bells and whistles of those designer It bags, but it's a bit more exciting than its Plain Jane tag suggests. It may [...]
- Tod's Unveils Spring 2011 Handbags | Luxury 24H & Shirt Bags Amongst New Line - 2010-09-28 05:05:51-04
Fall may be setting in, but Tod's is already looking ahead to warmer weather. It recently unveiled some beautiful new bags for spring. For the second year, Tod's chief Diego Della Valle chose to show the bags in the suitably luxurious setting of Villa Necchi in Milan. These purses, designed by the brand's creative director Derek [...]
- O'Neill Apple Bomb Tote | Large Patterned Canvas Beach Bag - 2010-09-28 06:05:23-04
O'Neill goes back to its coastal roots with this Apple Bomb bag, a tote that looks perfect for the beach. This is no high end tote, but it's not made to be. The printed cotton canvas is very busy, especially with the patterned double taping shoulder straps. But we all know you can get away with [...]
- Bally Macy Leopard Print Tote | Luxury Leather Purse in Tones of Gray - 2010-09-28 08:08:51-04
Who says leopard print can't be posh? This $950 tote from Bally just goes to show that there is a way to make this raunchy animal print classy. How have they done it? By changing the traditional yet difficult to wear shades into tones of gray. In this soft yet still exotic print, the handbag becomes much [...]
- Jessica McClintock Pearlescent Purse | Plastic Rectangle Fold Over Box Clutch - 2010-09-28 08:40:15-04
I do like a good box clutch. There is something about a strong shape and unusual pattern than can make me feel more like a princess than any other bag could ever hope to. This Jessica McClintock plastic clutch is one example that manages to combine bold edgy style with a pearly dose of glamor. Were [...]
- Marc Jacobs Parachute Multipocket Bag | Ultra-Blingy Bronze Glazed Canvas Shoulder Bag - 2010-09-28 21:11:57-04
The Marc Jacobs line is one of those rare beasts that manages to appeal to both sides of the preppie/hipster divide almost equally. This Parachute bag, however, is far from preppy, is is definitely not for women with a more reserved style sensibility. Marc Jacobs calls the shiny glaze on the canvas material of the bag [...]
- Antik Batik Dream Leather Shoulder Bag | Highly Textured Olive Green Leather Bag - 2010-09-29 00:00:17-04
I am so crazy for Antik Batik's eclectic, quirky designs. The line's fanciful approach to accessories keeps me intrigued time after time. Even though the Dream isn't my favorite of the bunch, it still has a fabulous look that I really admire. The surface of the dream is composed of layered circular patches of olive green [...]
- Luba J Benicio Satchel | Practical Large Green Textured Leather Handbag - 2010-09-29 02:05:05-04
I wonder whether swarthy actor Benicio del Toro inspired Luba J to create this satchel which shares his name. It definitely reminds me of the Puerto Rican honey with its large, imposing silhouette, and dark brooding good looks. It might be a women's satchel, but there's very little that's feminine about it. Pleating down the center [...]
- Matthew Williamson & Bulgari Unveil Designer Handbag Collection | Jewel Bags Launched in Milan - 2010-09-29 03:05:57-04
Matthew Williamson gave us a sneak peek at his handbag line for Bulgari in August, and now he's unveiled it in a breath-taking launch party. The event saw a Milanese garden transformed into a colorful jungle befitting the range's brightly hued bags. "I wanted to create a particular kaleidoscope drawn from the rich Bulgari heritage in fine [...]
- Lucky Brand Drifter Cross-Body Bag | Drawstring Canvas Purse with Flower Accent - 2010-09-29 04:05:07-04
Channel your inner nomad with this Drifter cross-body bag from Lucky Brand. This is a real boho bag, with its relaxed cotton-linen body and drawstring cinching in the top. Can't you just imagine some Beatnik from San Francisco slinging this bag over his shoulder as he hitch-hiked around the country? Well, perhaps you could if it wasn't [...]
- FLUF's Eco-Friendly Lunch Sacks | Organic Cotton Food Bags - 2010-09-29 05:05:03-04
Send your children to school with the cute and eco-friendly new lunch sacks from FLUF. These cute accessories take the concept of brown bagging and make it a little more chic. The lunch sacks are made from 100% certified organic cotton and adorned with fun designs, from milkshakes and apples to robots and chirping birds. The removable [...]
- Lulu Guinness Doll Face Cross Body Bag | Cute Kitsch Head Purse - 2010-09-29 06:05:38-04
Lulu Guinness is renowned for her cute and kitschy accessories, and they don't get much cuter, or much kitschier, than this Doll Face cross body bag. Yes, there may be something slightly creepy about carrying around what looks like a severed head, but I'm sure the emo kids will love this little face with her thick [...]
- LeSportsac Vintage Loveheart Clutch | Pretty Metallic Polyester Wristlet - 2010-09-29 07:46:47-04
It is unusual to see the word "vintage" and the name LeSportsac in the same sentence. After all, LeSportsac product sporty handbags from nylon or polyester, and this isn't something that usually fits neatly in to the vintage category. So, flaws with the naming aside, what do we think of this little wristlet? Well, as a [...]
- Inge Christopher Brussels Clutch | Delicate Nude Lace Covered Purse - 2010-09-29 08:22:35-04
Some people may say that the delicate lace and gentle nude coloring is too last season. However, I maintain that the Brussels evening bag from Inge Christopher can actually work really well with this A/W's catwalk of leather and sheepskin. You see, there is nothing prettier than a delicate girlie fabric contrasted against a strong tough material. For [...]
- Mulberry Edna Mini Leather Shoulder Bag | Perfectly Chic And Petite Camel Colored Bag - 2010-09-29 21:56:40-04
Mulberry's meticulous minimalism and high quality craftsmanship have given them a reputation that rivals the finest luxury goods makers. This Edna mini shoulder bag certainly doesn't disappoint the expectations that the line has set for themselves. The camel colored leather on the Edna is smooth and finely textured. The bright glossy gold of the hardware sets [...]
- Burberry Prorsum Cadet Small Studded Leather Bag | Rock-Inspired Tan Shoulder Bag - 2010-09-30 01:00:10-04
Burberry Prorsum is traditionally one of my favorite accessory lines. Their edgy, experimental aesthetic is right up my alley. But, sometimes they go a little over the top. Although I have loved some of the other bags in the Cadet line, I'm not sure whether they've taken things too far this time or not. The tan [...]
- Lux de Ville Sugar Skulls Lucky Me Kisslock Handbag | Retro Frame Black Velvet Rose Purse - 2010-09-30 02:05:40-04
It's a little bit naughty and a little bit nice, just as all women are. Meet the Sugar Skulls Lucky Me kisslock handbag. The Lucky Me bag is one of Lux de Ville's best sellers, with is cool retro shape and girlish red rose. But the Sugar Skulls, who are far from sweet, bring a new [...]
- Celebrities Clutch Cecelia Purses at New York Fashion Week | Stars Love Affordable Exotic Bags - 2010-09-30 03:05:51-04
At New York Fashion Week, the style we see in the crowds is often just as exciting as the looks on the runway. This year the event introduced us to Cecelia clutches, which seemed to be in the hands of every hot young celebrity. Actresses Alexis Bledel, Emmy Rossum, Rachel Bilson, and Zoe Saldana were just [...]
- Magid Small Wood Handle Bag | Affordable Minimalist Woven Pink Paper Straw Purse - 2010-09-30 04:05:20-04
The old saying that the simplest things are often the best definitely applies to this lovely little purse from Magid. It's not very luxurious, but there's something so appealing about its clean look and minimalist style. The body is made from woven paper straw. This fabric is one of Magid's favorites, and why not? It looks [...]
- Booq's New Luxury Cobra Handbags | Modern Waterproof Shoulder & Messenger Office Bags - 2010-09-30 05:05:36-04
Booq's laptop bags and backpacks can always be relied on for practicality, but their bright orange flashes and futuristic finishes aren't exactly appropriate for conservative workplaces. So I'm thrilled to see the brand offering something a little more sedate with its new Cobra collection. The Cobra bags are ever bit and durable and functional as the [...]
- Maison Martin Margiela Shearling Shoulder Bag | Large Furry Trimmed Black Handbag - 2010-09-30 06:05:45-04
As the weather cools we're all starting to rug up, and it seems so are our handbags! This Maison Martin Margiela Shearling Shoulder Bag looks like it's well and truly ready for winter! The simply designed black leather bag is given some personality with fuzzy shearling trim and handles. They're interesting accents, but I don't really [...]
- Menbur Emyn Velvet Clutch | Gorgeous Beaded Purse Perfect for Winter - 2010-09-30 08:22:22-04
Winter is here (well, almost), and with it comes the warm, heavy and gorgeous fabrics that cold mortals know and love. To accompany them, you need a gorgeous handbag, and this beautiful velvet purse form Menbur meets the bill. Despite the simple shape, this bag is thoroughly decadent. The rich plum velvet contrasts against the matt [...]
- Kate Spade Cat's Meow Clutch | Fur and Animal Print Scottie Cross-Body - 2010-09-30 08:55:06-04
Wow. This spotty furry purse isn't what I am used to seeing from the usually sophisticated Kate Spade brand! The cutely named "Cat's Meow" cross-body is the brand's nod to this season's fur obsession, and a fun one it is too. I don't hate this. This fact shocks me, as usually the moment they feel the [...]
- Alexander McQueen Knuckle Duster Lace Box Clutch | Edgy But Feminine Skull-Embellished Clutch - 2010-09-30 18:51:05-04
Alexander McQueen's series of Knuckle Duster clutches is one of my favorite in the line. These clutches are one part brass knuckles, one part elegant clutch, and all badass edgy attitude. This lace version is sugar meets spice in an explosion of rock-n-roll. There's nothing better than black lace against nude satin. On this bag, it [...]
- Antik Batik Emily Embellished Small Suede Bag | Fabulous Beaded Green Suede Boho Bag - 2010-09-30 23:00:14-04
Antik Batik's quirky bohemian design sensibility is rocking the accessories market this season. Just when you though boho chic was totally over, they've gone and done it in an ethnically-inspired, casually chic way with a subtle rock-n-roll sensibility. The rich, soft forest green makes the perfect backdrop for the bright emerald green suede front flap. The [...]
- Melie Bianco Marie Hobo | Glitzy Pewter Sequined Handbag - 2010-10-01 02:05:42-04
Sometimes you just need a bit of glitz, and when you do look to a bag like the Marie hobo from Melie Bianco . To be fair this bag delivers more than a bit of glitz, it delivers a lot. And for that reason it's not going to find a place in every girl's wardrobe. But [...]
- Lowell Makes Bra Purses | Lingerie Becomes Handbags for Breast Cancer Awareness - 2010-10-01 03:05:47-04
The folks at Lowell General Hospital in Massachusetts are raising breast cancer awareness in a creative and fashionable way with their Support The Girls program. Many women from the hospital's Breast Cancer Support Group have used bras to make cute purses. You can see these unusual handbags online at the Lowell General Hospital Gallery, or in [...]
- Mellow World Lindy Hobo Handbag | Twirled Zipper Edged Flower Handbag - 2010-10-01 04:05:58-04
Mellow World hits all the trends with its Lindy hobo. While hobos are typically mellow, bohemian affairs this one has much more attitude. Pleated folds sweep up to a rosette in the top corner of the bag, an accent which would seem feminine if it wasn't trimmed with a metal zip. We've seen so many zippered [...]
- Louis Vuitton's New Playtime Bag Charms | Purse Accessories Cute or Childish? - 2010-10-01 05:05:07-04
You might not be able to afford another Louis Vuitton handbag, but you could give your old one a new lease of life with the European fashion house's new range of Playtime Bag Charms. These whimsical trinkets easily attach to the handle or zipper pull of your favorite LV purse, or perhaps another bag that you [...]
- Menbur Ingra Pel Esparraguera Clutch | Retro Pink Plastic Evening Purse - 2010-10-01 06:05:33-04
I didn't think plastic could ever be considered fantastic until I spotted the exotically named Ingra Pel Esparraguera clutch from Menbur. Plastic has always been one of those cheap and cheerful materials, but packaged up by Menbur you'd easily forget that. In fact, most people won't have any clue what this purse is made from. They'll [...]
- Michael Kors Erin Shoulder Bag | Large Pleated Leather Tote Bag - 2010-10-02 02:05:14-04
Michael Kors looks to fulfill all our everyday needs with this Erin shoulder bag. There's a lot to like about this shoulder bag. I love the purple wisteria shade, which is gentle enough to wear everyday even though it could never be classed as a neutral. I'm also a fan of the soft leather, which looks [...]
- Dutzi Design Vintage Burlap Bags | Eco-Friendly Fair Trade Purses Help Mexican Families - 2010-10-02 03:05:58-04
Dutzi Design gets back to basics with its handcrafted accessories made from vintage burlap. Designer Ariane Dutzi was once an urban high flyer working as a fashion editor for Elle, Vanity Fair, and Glamour and living a glamorous life in Paris and New York. Today she embraces a more modest existence in Yucatan, Mexico. She loves [...]
- Miquelrius Agatha Ruiz de la Prada Cross Body Bag | Small Brown Suede Stitched Hearts Purse - 2010-10-02 04:05:03-04
I've seen so many Miquelrius handbags featuring sexy cartoon girls holding martinis and shopping bags that it's refreshing to see the brand getting back to basics. This Agatha Ruiz de la Prada bag marks a real change in direction for the label, and I like it. There's nothing complicated about the design, but its simplicity is [...]
- Ashley Watson's Chic Green Handbags | Recycled Leather Purses from Canada - 2010-10-02 05:05:32-04
Eco-conscious handbag designer Ashley Watson proves that green handbags don't have to look like the rustic hippie tote you see at your local arts and crafts markets. The Vancouver based designer creates handbags that are every bit as sleek and sophisticated as their high-end design competitors thanks to her trademark use of recycled leather. Of course, [...]
- Mulberry Margaret Clutch | Plum Purple Suede Gold Crest Purse - 2010-10-03 02:05:00-04
With its plum purple color and golden crest, this Margaret purse from Mulberry appears fit for a queen! This purse looks a little stuffy from a distance, but when you get up close and personal you'll discover its cute quirks. The crest isn't authentically regal at all, although it is very British. It celebrates everything the [...]
- Jidz Releases Limited Edition Handbag Collection | Unique Purses from Nigeria - 2010-10-03 03:05:46-04
I wasn't familiar with Nigerian handbag brand Jidz before, but its Limited Edition collection has forced me to sit up and take notice. The beautiful bags in the range are unique without being too outlandish or succumbing to trends. That should give these purses the wow factor for much longer, or encourage other designers around the [...]
- Mywalit Flag Coin Purse | Small Patriotic Leather Country Wallet - 2010-10-03 04:05:20-04
You can show your true colors carrying one of these cute flag purses from Mywalit. With 36 different designs, many nations of the world are represented here. Of course some fashion fans may be disappointed that their country misses out, but with locations like Australia, Egypt, and Jamaica all featured alongside big guns like Great Britain, [...]
- Antler's New Duolite Travel Bags | Tough Featherlight Hybrid Suitcases - 2010-10-03 05:05:25-04
Antler's latest luggage collection is called Duolite, a hybrid range which combines the best of both worlds. The travel bag brand has combined the perks of soft and hard luggage to create cases that are feather-light but tough as nails. Calling these suitcases feather-light may seem like a big of media spin, but with the 22-inch carry-on [...]
- Versace Ring-Detailed Leather Shoulder Bag | Rockstar Fabulous Purple Bag With Chain Strap - 2010-10-03 18:36:12-04
Versace is not always one of my favorite lines. I really admire their dedication to flashy design, but it's not really my thing. Every now and then, though, they make something wonderfully gaudy that I can't help loving in spite of myself. This purple ring-detailed bag is one of those items. First of all, this color [...]
- Bottega Veneta Structured Patchwork Python Clutch | Gorgeously Multicolored Snakeskin Evening Bag - 2010-10-03 22:00:07-04
I have a confession to make. I hate patchwork. Okay, I don't always hate it, but as a rule, I don't think that an artsy-craftsy approach to design usually makes for sophisticated accessories. Bottega Veneta is here to prove me dramatically, irrevocably, wrong. This patchwork clutch is the very definition of elegance. The multiple colors, [...]
- Nahui Ollin Moonlite Clutch | Long Woven Candy Wrapper Eco-Friendly Wristlet - 2010-10-04 02:05:46-04
Nahui Ollin gives us more of the designs she's known for best with this Moonlite clutch. The Moonlite is the longest of Nahui Ollin's clutch purses. I think its shape is more elegant than the stubbier purses, although something made from woven candy wrappers could never really be called sophisticated. It's more of a conversation piece, [...]
- Lisa Lam's Bag Making Bible | New Handbag Design Craft Book - 2010-10-04 03:05:09-04
If the handbags in the stores aren't revving you, or if you're on a budget, why not make your own? It sounds complicated, but Lisa Lam looks to unleash our inner artisan with her new book The Bag Making Bible. Lam clearly knows her stuff. You may know her as the owner of U-Handbag, an online [...]
- Nancy Gonzalez Woven Crocodile Tote | Luxury Red Retro Designer Handbag - 2010-10-04 04:05:21-04
Woven surfaces and exotic crocodile skins scream luxury, so Nancy Gonzalez desired to pair both elements in the ultimate plush accessory. Sadly though I think the idea behind this one is better than the result. The open weave just doesn't have the same appeal as the tight woven finish we see in bags from Bottega Veneta. [...]
- Limited Edition Crystalyn Kae Eco-Friendly Handbags | Stylish Reclaimed Leather & Vegan Bags - 2010-10-04 05:05:26-04
Crystalyn Kae knows there's nothing worse than carrying the same purse as everybody else, so she only creates a small run of each of her eco-friendly handbags. Of course, everyone has a different definition of what eco-friendly actually means so Crystalyn Kae looks to appease all green fashionistas. Many bags are crafted using new leather which [...]
- Nicole Miller Charla Clutch | Contemporary Blue Leather Purse - 2010-10-04 06:05:21-04
With its geometric body and faceted clasp, this Charla clutch from Nicole Miller appears like a very special jewel. Of course, it doesn't have the glitz of a gemstone, but I prefer the more mellow charms of this hand-stained blue leather. It's a versatile material, which would lend itself to pairing with a favorite little black [...]
- Fall 2010 Handbag Highlights | Top Designer Bags for Autumn - 2010-10-04 06:59:29-04
The change in temperature can only mean one thing; it's time to talk about fall fashion! Cozy knits and knee high boots make their way on to the streets but for us at BagBunch, it's all about finding the perfect handbag for the season. With handbags this fall it's [...]
- Coach Julia Minimalist Tote | Pebble Leather Perry Shoulder Bag - 2010-10-04 09:40:19-04
Coach have produced a sophisticated and stylish bag with the release of the Julia shoulder bag. Rather than decorate this handbag in their typical mish mash of colors, Coach have in this instance decided to keep it far more subtle. Consequently this handbag focuses more on a mix of soft textured and patterns. We have the [...]
- Mary Frances Accessories Crystal Palace Clutch | Decorative Sparkling Evening Bag - 2010-10-04 10:09:42-04
No prizes for guessing why this Mary Frances clutch is called the "Crystal Palace"! This little evening purse is lavishly encrusted with all manner of crystals and gems, making it quite the eye catcher! OK, so Mary Frances is never, ever, subtle. She is all about the bling and the jewels, about covering her soft slouchy [...]
