- Ashley M Coca-Cola Tote Bag | Red Soft Drink Logo Recycled Fabric Purse - 2011-11-29 01:21:53-05
Few designers name check as many big brand companies as Ashley M. While we've seen some more sedate designers from the label of late, this Coca-Cola bag sees it back to its usual tricks. You'd probably have to be a real fan of the soft drink to indulge in this logo emblazoned handbag. There's nothing subtle [...]
- Ralph Lauren's New Ricky Bag | Limited Edition Crocodile Purse for United Arab Emirates - 2011-11-29 02:08:33-05
Ralph Lauren is the latest designer to show his love for the United Arab Emirates. The release of this limited edition Ricky bag comes hot on the heels of the launch of Gucci's exclusive Marrakech purse. The new Ricky bag is crafted from lavender purple crocodile skin and embellished with rose gold hardware. As the Ricky [...]
- B. Makowsky Billie Cross-Body Bag | Sophisticated Military Style Leather Purse - 2011-11-29 03:45:41-05
B. Makowsky delivers a cross-body bag with a military twist with this Billie purse. I like the way that B. Makowsky keeps its accents subtle. The studs that dot its flap and the gentle contrast stitching are clearly military inspired, but they're not obviously trend conscious. That ensures the Billie will look fresh season after season. B. [...]
- Dolce & Gabbana Tax Evasion Case Reopened | Designers to Stand Trial After Appeal - 2011-11-29 04:46:58-05
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana are again being investigated for tax evasion after the decision to drop the case was overturned. You might remember that the designing duo was accused of failing to declare more than $1.1 billion in sales. In April the charges were dropped due to lack of evidence, but recently that decision was [...]
- Badgley Mischka Jill Tote | Woven Leather Accented Handbag - 2011-11-29 05:26:53-05
Elegant woven accents help to separate this Jill Tote from Badgley Mischka from the rest of the pack. We've seen so many bags like this before, with their gleaming turn-lock closures and ladylike structured silhouettes. I like them all, but they tend to get a bit samey. The woven vertical stripes are just what I've been [...]
- Baggallini Monaco Clutch | Simple Graphite Gray Purse - 2011-11-30 01:29:26-05
Baggallini's created a clutch to take us from a coffee catch-up with the girls to a dinner date with the Monaco. Like the rest of the label's range, the Monaco is free from frills or frippery. But there's something refreshing about its minimalist design. Its styling is clean and contemporary, with a brushed silver turn-lock holding [...]
- Miranda Kerr Stars in Bally Advertisement | Models & Mountain Goats for Spring - 2011-11-30 02:31:20-05
Bally's spring 2011 campaign sees the label celebrating its Swiss heritage. Australian beauty Miranda Kerr stars alongside Julia Stegner, Cedric Bihr, Robert Konjic, and a few mountain goats. Norman Jean Roy shot the dynamic advertisements against a backdrop of snow capped mountains. These alpine peaks make the ad feel a little more winter than spring, but [...]
- Baggu Leather Tote | Basic Apricot Colored Carry-All Handbag - 2011-11-30 03:05:57-05
Baggu takes an uncharacteristically upmarket approach to design with this leather tote. The label is most famous for its ripstop nylon shoppers. Those totes aren't very luxurious, but they're incredibly handy for the grocery runs or a spot of errands. So I must admit, I was surprised to see the label dabbling in leather. Perhaps it [...]
- Marc Jacobs Declined Dior | Speculation on Galliano's Replacement Continues - 2011-11-30 04:51:21-05
We were all sweating on it, but it seems Marc Jacobs is definitely not heading to Dior. A source close to Jacobs has told Fashionista that while LVMH approached him in July about the position, he declined it sometime in mid-November. The source said that negations between LVMH's CEO Bernard Arnault, Dior's president Sidney Toledano, and [...]
- Balenciaga Edition Ottoman Dupionne Tote | Two-Toned Minimalist Red Leather Handbag - 2011-11-30 17:55:30-05
Balenciaga's ditched its signature hardware for a much sleeker, chicer look with this Edition Ottoman Dupionne tote. Its name is a bit of a mouthful, but its design is much less complicated. Its curved body and round cut-out handles give it a fun, retro feel. The warm glossy red leather is gently contrasted with a much [...]
- Bally Mylla Wallet | Studded Brown Calfskin Coin Purse - 2011-12-01 01:48:34-05
I must admit, it's been a while since a studded accessory turned my head. But Bally's managed to do it in style with this Mylla wallet. The golden studs help make this simple wallet something special. Its shape is quite ordinary, and while the calfskin leather is lush in brown it's also a bit pedestrian. Or [...]
- Gucci Opens Sydney Store | Australian Flag Bags for Westfield Boutique - 2011-12-01 02:19:11-05
Today Gucci will open the doors of its latest store, located in the Westfield shopping mall in the heart of Sydney, Australia. The flagship store is an expansive space taking up two storeys and 7500 square feet. Its décor is just as luxurious as the stylish items it sells, with plenty of marble and rich rosewood. [...]
- Balmain Abroad Chain Shoulder Bag | Versatile Black Leather Purse - 2011-12-01 03:43:16-05
Balmain abandons its typical taste for the avant garde for styling that's actually easy to wear with this Abroad Chain Shoulder Bag. It seems like Balmain has taken its foot off the pedal a bit here. This clutch is much more relaxed than the haute couture accessories the label usually creates. Personally I appreciate its subtlety [...]
- Marni Designs for H&M | Affordable Retailer Announces Next Limited Edition Line - 2011-12-01 04:24:40-05
Feeling glum after the news that Versace's next H&M line won't be available in the United States? Perhaps it's a good thing. It means you'll have more to spend on the retailer's forthcoming collaboration with Marni! The line features suits, dresses, footwear, and statement accessories, many of which can be seen in the video above. The [...]
- BCBGeneration Kaira Satchel | Chain Decorated Synthetic Black Purse - 2011-12-01 05:08:29-05
Only a few hours ago I fell hard for Balmain's Abroad shoulder bag. Just like that lovely purse, the Kaira has silver chains decorating its dark leathery skin. However while they're similar on paper, this satchel sadly comes off looking like the poor cousin. Perhaps that's inevitable at this price point. While the Abroad is $865, [...]
- Be & D Nixie Tote | Canvas & Lambskin Yellow Carry-All Bag - 2011-12-02 01:32:40-05
Be & D dresses up the classic canvas tote with this Nixie bag. The glazed lizard finish makes the tote's yellow canvas body feel a little more luxurious. I've never seen canvas treated this way, but it's incredibly well done. I don't think it'll fool anyone, but it does make the tote seem more exotic. The [...]
- Louis Vuitton Opens Sydney Maison Store | Billie Achilleos Designs Australian Animal Bag Sculptures for Opening - 2011-12-02 02:33:52-05
British artist Billie Achilleos has turned Louis Vuitton handbags into iconic Australian animals to celebrate today's opening of a new Louis Vuitton store in George Street, Sydney. You might remember that Achilleos created similar sculptures for Louis Vuitton's press events in June. As an Aussie I may be a bit biased, but I think this trio [...]
- Bebe Liza Tote | Modern Red Leatherette Drawstring Handbag - 2011-12-02 03:06:51-05
This bold red Liza Tote from Bebe can provide the perfect pop of color to combat gray wintery days. I must admit, the Liza's red color really turned my head. The glossy leatherette isn't the best quality synthetic I've seen, but that scarlet shade makes up for its shortcomings. I love way the polished finish is [...]
- Prada Increases Sales | Leather Handbags Help Miu Miu Boost Profits - 2011-12-02 04:26:01-05
The continued popularity of the Prada and Miu Miu labels has helped Prada Spa enjoy a 75% increase in sales for the year's third quarter. The company posted a net profit of €93.6 million, or roughly $125 million US, which is significantly more than the €89.9 million forecasted. Much of this success has to do with [...]
- Beirn Grace Snake-Embossed Tote | Purple Exotic Handbag with Wristlet - 2011-12-02 23:58:03-05
Beirn offers two bags for the price of one with this stylish Grace tote. This handbag is so striking, with its regal purple hue and mottled stripes. In fact, I was surprised to read it's made not from the snakeskin that Beirn typically uses, but an embossed leather. Fashion snobs may see this as a step [...]
- Betsey Johnson Betseyville Be Mine Again Satchel | Heart Quilted Black Patent Purse - 2011-12-03 01:03:52-05
Betsey Johnson hopes to win our hearts with this playful Be Mine Again satchel. I don't expect she'll impress anyone who isn't already a fan though, as this bag doesn't stray too far from her traditional loud and proud approach. The bag's black body is far from basic with its glossy patent sheen and heart-shaped quilting. [...]
- Designers Decorate Totes for Fashion Targets Tornadoes | Diane von Furstenberg & Carlos Falchi Make Bags for Alabama Storms - 2011-12-03 02:21:36-05
Diane von Furstenberg, Carlos Falchi, Nanette Lepore, and a host of other American fashion designers have decorated canvas totes to help survivors of April's Alabama storms. The Fashion Targets Tornadoes campaign will see the handbags auctioned off via eBay. Bidding commenced this week and will end on December 8. At that time 80% of the proceeds [...]
- Big Buddha Chloe Satchel | Affordable Woven Zigzag Pattern Carry-All Handbag - 2011-12-03 03:39:55-05
Big Buddha's created a stylish handbag for the season with this Chloe satchel. This is one of those special bags that appears much richer than it really is. The luxurious look comes from the zigzag weave, which elegantly dresses up the purse's synthetic body. The stitches cleverly hide the cheap material underneath. From a distance they [...]
- Elizabeth Taylor Handbags Auctioned | Own Actress' Designer Purses - 2011-12-03 04:13:44-05
A collection of designer handbags owned by the late Elizabeth Taylor will be auctioned through Christie's from December 13 to 16. Purses from Hermes, Balenciaga, Chanel, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, and Christian Dior are amongst the accessories on offer. A different group of luxury purses will go under the hammer at Rockefeller Center each day during the [...]
- Bisadora Runway Baby Belle Handbag | Structured Black Synthetic Shoulder Bag - 2011-12-04 21:13:44-05
Bisadora promises us a design that's more fashion forward with this Runway Baby Belle. Sadly though, this feels like more of the same from Bisadora. It's not exactly a bad bag, but its name promised so much more flair. Instead the design relies on a pop of red synthetic extending from the handles to the base. [...]
- Michael Kors Plans Stock Market Trade | Label Readies New York Listing - 2011-12-04 22:05:40-05
Michael Kors is cementing its reputation as a fashion house to be reckoned with through its latest plan to trade on the American stock market. Fashion bible Women's Wear Daily claims the company is plotting an IPO which will see it trading under the name of KORS on the New York Stock Exchange. The modern fashion [...]
- Bodhi Avenue B Cross-Body Bag | Chain Decorated Black Leather Handbag - 2011-12-04 23:56:50-05
Bodhi takes its cues from New York's East Village with this Avenue B cross-body bag. Just like the Alphabet City street that shares its name, this cross-body bag oozes modern attitude. It almost looks like someone's taken a switchblade to the flap, an edgy detail which is complemented beautifully by the punk rock chains draped casually [...]
- Traditional Woven JADEtribe Handbags | American Designer Collaborates with International Artisans - 2011-12-05 00:40:54-05
Kimberly Hartman brings the craftsmanship of Asian artisans to the western world with her accessories label JADEtribe. The Texan born designer developed the label in 2009, after she spent time traveling the globe. Inspired by the creative pieces she saw on her journey, she began to collaborate with craftspeople in India and Southeast Asia. JADEtribe showcases [...]
