New at BagBunch: Anya Hindmarch Lacing Python Shoulder Bag | Feminine And Exotic Laced Hobo

Hi mary,

Check out the latest handbag fashion news and review at BagBunch.com:
  1. Anya Hindmarch Lacing Python Shoulder Bag | Feminine And Exotic Laced Hobo - 2011-03-21 18:02:20-04
    Anya Hindmarch's aesthetic is sometimes unreliable, but often fabulous. This Lacing shoulder bag is a great example of where I hope her look is going. I know it's not really PC, but I love snake skin, python in particular. The amazing variations in color and give the material so much depth. I love the bounty of [...]
  2. Coccinelle Annie Rose Small Cross-Body | Complicated Knotted Leather Purse - 2011-03-21 18:44:36-04
    If you want a bag to look expensive, make it look complicated. I would say they have done this with style in the Annie Rose cross-body! The round shape of this Coccinelle purse could be a little ordinary, especially with the long strap. Function could easily outweigh looks, and perhaps this is why the designer have made that body quite so clever. [...]
  3. Miu Miu Small Leather Satchel | Sweet And Sophisticated Pastel Shoulder Bag - 2011-03-21 19:00:55-04
    I've gotten behind Miu Miu and then given up on them so many times in the past few seasons that I just can't keep up with it, myself. I guess I should just take each bag as it comes and stop trying to define the line as a whole. Which I guess makes this small [...]
  4. David King & Co. Doctor Satchel | Classic Tan Cowhide Leather Handbag - 2011-03-21 20:51:27-04
    David King & Co. plays it safe with this traditionally designed doctor satchel. There's nothing wrong with classic design though when it's done this well. The grained vacquetta cowhide leather is lovely, even if it's a bit boring in conservative tan and black colors. Strangely I would have preferred a more minimalist approach, as the smattering [...]
  5. Nicole Miller's New Bike Chain Handle Bags | Quirky Handbags Made from Bicycle Parts - 2011-03-21 21:47:25-04
    Nicole Miller has made her latest handbag designs a bit edgier by using bicycle chains for handles! The New York based designer was inspired to use the metal chains after watching locals in her TriBeCa neighborhood riding bikes around the city streets. She set about researching bicycle chains to ensure her unique handle idea would stack [...]
  6. Sydney Love Dogs Rock Dog Carrier | Affordable Red Puppy Print Synthetic Pet Bag - 2011-03-21 22:25:30-04
    Listen up all you aspiring Paris Hiltons and Ashley Tisdales. If you can't leave home without your puppy in tow, you'll need a cute carrier like this Dogs Rock bag from Sydney Love. OK, so Paris would probably have something much more luxe for carrying her chihuahua, but most of us won't want to spend the [...]
  7. Lake Bell Designs Botkier Bag for Oxfam | Stunning 70s Style Charity Satchel - 2011-03-21 22:52:35-04
    Actress Lake Bell has teamed up with Monika Botkier to create The Lake Satchel. 50% of the proceeds from sales of the limited edition bag will benefit Oxfam International and its efforts to end poverty around the world. The designers wanted to create a bag that was big enough to handle everything girls need, but small [...]
  8. Kensie Girl Truffle Duffle | Girly Ruffled Synthetic Handbag - 2011-03-21 23:54:40-04
    Duffle bags tend to be masculine, utilitarian creatures, more concerned with getting your stuff where you need it to be than making a style statement. So I'm thrilled to see Kensie Girl having a bit of fun with the handbag style with this Truffle Duffle. This girly bag certainly won't be everyone's cup of cappuccino, but [...]
  9. Whiting & Davis Sleek East West Shoulder Strap Clutch | Versatile Convertible Bronze Metal Mesh Purse - 2011-03-22 02:05:27-04
    The simple things in life are often the best, but sometimes they're just downright boring. The jury's still out on what camp the Sleek clutch from Whiting & Davis falls into. I admit, my first impression was to dismiss this purse as a half-hearted attempt from the metal mesh masters. The Sleek's really simple, and it [...]

  11. Mary Frances Call Me Shoulder Bag | Cute Black Telephone Shaped Evening Purse - 2011-03-22 04:05:06-04
    Mary Frances creates another cute and kitsch little number with this Call Me shoulder bag. I'm used to novelty bags from Mary Frances, but this one is a bit more obvious than most. Dark beads and jewels create a retro style telephone, complete with a numbered dial. It's as adorable as it is silly, which is [...]
  12. Carla Mancini Grace Tote | Woven and Crocodile Textured Luxury Bag - 2011-03-22 08:58:15-04
    Intricate leather work and some exotic textures make this Carla Mancini tote a truly luxurious option. Carla Mancini rarely does things by halves. Woven leather work is always gorgeous, but it as if she has stood back from her creation, as asked what else it could have to make it look really posh? The answer? Well a crocodile [...]
  13. Anya Hindmarch Boat Bag Large Canvas Tote | Trite But Cute Cotton Carryall - 2011-03-22 13:58:46-04
    his bag, unfortunately, combines two things that I am really tired of: canvas totes and graphic prints. Since when does slapping a kitschy silk screen down on a plain cotton bag count as "designing"? Ugh. Personal grievances aside, the Boat bag is pretty cute, even if I feel like I've already seen it a million [...]
  14. Menbur Glittery Box Clutch | Satin and Diamante Evening Bag - 2011-03-22 17:20:45-04
    Box clutches have become something of a speciality for Menbur, and so it isn't a surprise to see them produce yet another solid little evening bag. Whilst many of the Menbur box clutches are remarkable looking, the  design of this particular clutch is a lot more traditional. In fact, it is kind of disappointing to see the [...]
  15. Maison Martin Margiela Large Leather Bag | Pared Down And Practical Taupe Tote - 2011-03-22 18:35:53-04
    Maison Martin Margiela knows how to take simple designs and make them extraordinary and iconic. It's for this reason that he's been able to develop a spotless reputation in the fashion world in a relatively short period of time. This large leather bag is a great example of his minimal aesthetic. The taupe leather on this [...]
  16. Hayden-Harnett's New Pirates of the Caribbean Bags | Walt Disney Handbags, Cuffs, & Scarves - 2011-03-22 22:14:16-04
    Hayden-Harnett has teamed up with Walt Disney Signature to create a Pirates of the Caribbean inspired accessories collection. The limited edition goodies will be released in May, the same month as Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth film from the Pirates franchise, hits theaters around the world. The pirate inspired range features leather [...]
  17. Big Buddha Alvin Cross-Body Bag | Brown Faux Fur & Synthetic Purse - 2011-03-22 23:01:57-04
    Its name is meek and mild, but the combination of synthetic and faux fur makes this Alvin bag from Big Buddha totally fierce. Fashion snobs may wish for genuine leather and fur, but the use of high quality manmade materials here actually looks quite stylish. It's also much more animal friendly, and more affordable! Big Buddha [...]
  18. Amy Butler Harmony Laptop Tote | Colorful Printed Organic Cotton Handbag - 2011-03-23 02:05:30-04
    Amy Butler offers a feminine alternative to those boring black tech bags with this pretty Harmony laptop tote. Pretty patterns really are the Harmony's greatest selling point, so I'm glad to see Amy Butler offer a range of different prints. This navy one is called the Fuschia Tree, but there are five different patterns and colors [...]
  19. Customized Laptop Bags from Caseable | Personalized iPad Cases & Computer Sleeves - 2011-03-23 03:05:01-04

  20. Harajuku Lovers Hot Stuff Messenger Bag | 60s Girls Printed Polyester Purse - 2011-03-23 04:05:47-04
    Harajuku Lovers puts its style stamp on this Hot Stuff messenger bag. Honestly, even if it wasn't emblazoned with the Harajuku Lovers logo, I'd have known exactly who was behind it. It's got those cutesy little Harajuku girl graphics and that vibrant pop of teal after all. And then there's the use of polyester over more [...]
  21. Big Buddha Maya Hobo | Unique Woven Pale Gray Synthetic Handbag - 2011-03-23 06:05:20-04
    Big Buddha reminds us that fashion-forward accessories don't need to cost the earth with this Maya hobo handbag The woven finish of this bag is really striking. Big Buddha hasn't tried to replicate the looks of weave masters like Bottega Veneta. Instead it's gone out on its own, weaving cord through the synthetic to create a [...]
  22. Mar Y Sol Gigi Raffia Clutch | Colorful Star Covered Summer Purse - 2011-03-23 12:43:54-04
    Get kitted up for summer with this fun and lighthearted raffia clutch. What makes this summery? Firstly the raffia, that lightweight fabric, which is the epitome of all things sunny and sandy. It looks like the sort of bag you would wear in a hot country. Then there are the cute stitched details - there is [...]
  23. Jimmy Choo Rosabel Leopard Print Pony Hair Tote | Dramatic Animal Print Bag - 2011-03-23 16:15:27-04
    Jimmy Choo does animal prints in a very sophisticated way. Think Dynasty as opposed to Married With Children. This Rosabel tote is a striking accessory for a woman who's not afraid to make a statement. There's nothing better to me than the combination of animal print and pony hair. In fact, it's the only way I [...]
  24. Marc By Marc Jacobs Yo Yo Dot PVC Tote And Umbrella | Cartoon Cute Red Polka Dot Carryall - 2011-03-23 19:00:39-04
    Marc by Marc Jacobs is the only line I can think of that can really pull off kitschy cute designer digs. I was a little irked by this Yo Yo bag when I first saw it, but it's got a quirkiness that I just can't resist. The bright red polka dotted PVC material on the Yo [...]
  25. Magaschoni Announces Handbag Launch | Apparel Brand's First Accessories Line - 2011-03-23 22:52:58-04
    American clothing label Magaschoni is adding handbags to its fashion range after 22 years in the business. The company is best known for its sportswear and knitwear apparel lines. The company's first handbag collection is set to feature 18 opulent styles made from luxury materials including python, crocodile, hair calf, pebbled leather, and microfiber. Expect to [...]
  26. Inge Christopher Elsa Minaudiere | Affordable Royal Blue Metallic Stripe Box Clutch - 2011-03-24 02:05:11-04
    Inge Christopher abandons its usual classic aesthetic for something more edgy with this Elsa minaudiere. We're used to seeing minaudieres packed with Swarovski crystals on the high end and rhinestones on the low. Either way those faceted stones make them glimmer and gleam when they catch the light. This one does too, but rather than stones [...]
  27. Kate Spade Designs Japan Tote Bag | Limited Edition Handbag for Japanese Red Cross - 2011-03-24 03:05:55-04
    Kate Spade is doing her bit for the Japanese earthquake and tsunami relief efforts with the upcoming release of this limited edition Japan Tote Bag. The simply styled tote features Kate Spade's signature black spade graphic alongside a pink love heart and Japan's iconic red rising sun. The message is unmistakable; just like the rest of [...]
  28. Coach Mia Mini Maggie Purse | Small Raspberry Patent Leather Handbag - 2011-03-24 04:05:08-04
    Coach does away with its famous signature prints for this sleek Mia Mini Maggie Purse. Personally, I think it's a better bag for it. Some Coach fans may like to carry around those telltale C covered handbags, but fashion is moving towards a more minimalist, less showy aesthetic. This pretty purse fits in with that perfectly. Without [...]
  29. Vera Bradley Jazzy Clutch | Fun Practical Patchwork Purple Purse - 2011-03-24 06:05:26-04
    Vera Bradley looks to bring a bit of color to your everyday with this fun Jazzy clutch from her Patchwork collection. Vera Bradley has fun with patchwork here, using curved swatches of her signature fabrics to create a finish which is quite stylish and modern. What it lacks in luxury it certainly makes up for in [...]
  30. Zara Terez Birds Convertible Clutch | Luxury Suede and Feather Purse - 2011-03-24 17:40:16-04
    Feathers can have a tendency to lean towards the drag queen end of the fashion spectrum, but if used wisely they can actually be a very glamorous and stylish decoration. Thankfully this is exactly the case in this Zara Terez clutch. You see, the feathers don't dominate the body of this purse, but are instead used [...]
  31. Joy Gryson Announces Luxurious Capsule Collection | New Opulent Exotic & Fur Clutches for Fall - 2011-03-24 21:46:06-04
    In 2006 Joy Gryson gave us her signature line, Gryson. In 2008 she served up more affordable, youthful accessories with Olivia Harris, a collection named for her daughter. And now, as we're emerging from the global financial crisis, Joy Gryson is offering opulence with her 2011 collection, Capsule by Joy Gryson. These purses are seriously luxurious, [...]
  32. Felix Rey I Heart You Pochette | Metal Mesh Large Heart Purse - 2011-03-25 02:05:41-04
    Felix Rey lays its heart on its purse with this romantic I Heart You Pochette. The designer often crosses the line between whimsical and novelty, and I think he may have done it again here. The concept is sound, but the execution is just a bit obvious. I love the kookiness of the spotted brass metal [...]
  33. Man Bags Become Popular | Leading Handbag Designer's Launch Men's Collections - 2011-03-25 03:05:09-04
    For centuries handbags were strictly a female domain, but it seems the tide is turning. Rebecca Minkoff has launched her man bag collection, Ben Minkoff, and it'll soon by joined by similar lines from Coach, Jimmy Choo, and Swarovski, to name a few. Fashion bible Women's Wear Daily says that the trend towards masculine accessories is [...]
  34. Melie Bianco Dakota Cross-Body Saddle Bag | Turquoise Blue Synthetic Purse - 2011-03-25 04:05:09-04
    With its sexy curves and stitching, there are certainly shades of Chloe's Marcie bag in this affordable Dakota purse from Melie Bianco. If you can afford the original, I can't imagine the Dakota would tempt you. But as a designer substitute, this one does a pretty good job. What I like most about it though is [...]
  35. Britney Spears' Online Shopping Addiction | Pop Star Talks of Handbag & Jacket Love - 2011-03-25 05:05:06-04
    Britney Spears has revealed she's an online shopping addict who often succumbs to the charms of designer handbags and jackets. The pop princess, who's about to release her brand new studio album Femme Fatale, says that she loves to shop in online boutiques rather than heading to the mall. Considering the army of paparazzi that follows [...]
  36. Big Buddha Jackie Satchel | Vibrant Blue Perforated Synthetic Handbag - 2011-03-25 06:05:32-04
    With a pop of color and some fashion forward details, Big Buddha has created a stylish casual satchel with this Jackie bag. This is one of those handbags that manages to incorporate modern details well into a time honored design. The Jackie's shape is just as we'd expect, but the scalloped perforated trim helps to make [...]
  37. B. Makowsky Dakota East-West Shopper | Boho Mustard Leather Drawstring Handbag - 2011-03-26 02:05:59-04
    Forget hobos. B. Makowsky shows us that shoppers can be just as boho chic with this Dakota handbag. This purse is relaxed and carefree, with its slouchy profile and long tassels. The high quality leather slouches in all the right places, working with the drawstring to create the kind of bag Sienna Miller would adore. I love [...]
  38. Nelson De La Nuez Signs Fashion Deal | Pop Artist Readies Handbag & Footwear Collection - 2011-03-26 03:05:52-04

  39. Kate Spade Gold Coast Evangeline Shoulder Bag | Metallic Quilted Flap Purse - 2011-03-26 18:54:57-04
    Kate Spade reinvents the classic quilted flap bag for the space age with her Gold Coast Evangeline shoulder bag. This purse takes its cues from the classic designs of Chanel, with its turn-lock clasp, front flap, quilting and chain handle. But Kate Spade has tweaked a few of these elements to give her purse individuality and [...]
  40. Target Copies PS1 Bag | Proenza Schouler Designers Talk Mossimo Messenger - 2011-03-26 19:45:26-04
    Target has angered Proenza Schouler designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez by selling a bag virtually identical to their iconic PS1 purse. While the original Proenza Schouler accessory costs a few thousand dollars, you can own a similarly styled Mossimo messenger for just $34.95. McCollough and Hernandez became aware of the Mossimo messenger's resemblance to the [...]
  41. Roxy Lightning Sling Bag | Practical Weathered Olive Green Synthetic Purse - 2011-03-27 02:05:54-04
    Roxy delivers another solid, and surprisingly stylish, everyday bag with this Lightning purse. Perhaps it's time that we were no longer surprised by Roxy's accessory efforts. In recent years the brand has convincingly made the leap from surf label to fashion force, so it's time we silenced those internal critics once and for all. It's still [...]
  42. Puma Kick Grip Gym Bag | Retro Perforated Formstripe Synthetic Sports Handbag - 2011-03-27 04:05:05-04
    Puma celebrates its heritage with this retro styled Kick Grip gym bag. It's new season stock, but this Kick Grip could have easily stepped out of the 1970s. That brown leatherette body is very retro cool, and the popping white formstripe is another throwback to the past. Look closer and you'll see this Puma signature is [...]
  43. New Book Profiles Famous It Handbags | Fifty Bags That Changed The World - 2011-03-27 23:03:22-04
    Every season the fashion industry seems to create handbags that make bagistas like us drool. Now Design Museum looks bag at these key purses with its new book, Fifty Bags That Changed the World. Narrowing the bags down to just 50 must have been a daunting task, although there were certainly some no brainers. The stories [...]
  44. Handbag & Shoe eBay Sale | Fashion Vault Accessories Clearance - 2011-03-27 23:54:30-04
    eBay is giving fashion fans another opportunity to spruce up their spring wardrobe when it opens the doors of its Fashion Vault tomorrow.

  45. Juicy Couture Gen Y Sugar Kiss Tote | Cotton Canvas Sequined Lips Carryall Bag - 2011-03-28 02:05:15-04
    Juicy Couture is appealing to a whole new generation with this Gen Y Sugar Kiss tote. Its silvery sequined lips are the star attraction here, and they really are striking. The shiny kiss is set against a baby pink cotton background, which has all of the femininity we expect from a Juicy Couture design. Happily, the Gen [...]
  46. Ellington Amelia Travel Clutch | Practical Pink Nylon Purse - 2011-03-28 04:05:09-04
    I've always thought of clutch purses as stylish but fairly impractical accessories for nights on the town. But Ellington has made me change my point of view with this surprising Amelia travel clutch. The Amelia shuns glitter and glitz for old fashion functionality. While its bright pink nylon finish pops, that's not really the point of [...]
  47. Nine West Maraka Tote | Tan Vintage America Zip Pocket Convertible Handbag - 2011-03-28 06:05:23-04
    Do you want zippered pockets? You've got them with this Maraka Tote from Nine West. Those zip pockets are the centerpiece of this bag, which is a really good thing. I love it when an element makes a bag aesthetically pleasing and practical, and these pockets do both things well. The brassy hardware works with the [...]
  48. Lauren Merkin Diana Ariel Clutch | Washed Lambskin Purse with Grommets - 2011-03-28 08:56:07-04
    What is the opposite of a purse with studs? Why, one with holes, of course! Whilst we have seen the Diana clutch before, the Ariel edition takes it into new and unfamiliar territory. Those popular pointy studs that made the first version such a success have been removed, and the opposite (grommets) have been added in their place. [...]
