- Chipotle Makes Eco-Friendly Lunch Bags | Free Meal with Every Billboard Tote - 2012-03-26 17:09:32-04
Chipotle Mexican Grill is celebrating Earth Day on April 22 with the release of a new Chipotle branded repurposed billboard lunch bag. The bags are designed by eco brand Loomstate and created locally by Denver's Billboard Ecology Partners. Each lunch bag is carefully crafted from old Chipotle billboards, a material which is as durable as it [...]
- B-Low The Belt Twiggy Handbag | Quirky Orange Fringed Shoulder Bag - 2012-03-27 01:10:19-04
B-Low The Belt has overdosed on the fringe with this Twiggy handbag. Honestly I've never seen a handbag with this much fringe. In fact, I can't see the handbag at all, because there's so much fringing in the way! There really could be anything under that mass of orange leather, couldn't there? The fringe gives the Twiggy [...]
- Kavu Swoopdee Sling Bag | Patchwork Style Cotton Handbag - 2012-03-27 02:23:11-04
Kavu takes care of our daily needs with this casual Swoopdee Sling Bag. I'd be overstating the point if I said the Swoopdee did its job in style, but there's a real homespun charm about its finish. The hexagonal patch print reminds me of a handstitched old quilt. Perhaps that's not quite the look we want [...]
- Valextra's New Ko So Young Handbag | Limited Edition Purse Inspired by Korean Actress - 2012-03-27 03:32:19-04
Italian fashion house Valextra has teamed up with South Korean actress Ko So Young for a limited edition purse. The Valextra for So Young handbag is a reworking of Valextra's iconic S Series design, with an injection of Asian flair. This isn't the first time Valextra has joined forces with a prominent actress. You might remember [...]
- Adidas by Stella McCartney Big Bag | Large Black Nylon Gym Duffel - 2012-03-27 04:05:48-04
Adidas and Stella McCartney have put their heads together to create a gym bag that makes good on its promise. By name and by nature, this is a Big Bag! A bag so large is really made for serious gym junkies rather than casual athletes. It'll hold a mat for yoga class, a towel and swimwear [...]
- Proenza Schouler's New York Boutique | Label Revamps Website & Adds Jeans to Collection - 2012-03-27 05:42:10-04
Proenza Schouler looks to conquer the Big Apple with the opening of its new New York City boutique. The involvement of new investors, led by Theory chief executive officer Andrew Rosen, has helped the American company grow. That means expanding its cache of retail stores and its product line. The forthcoming boutique on New York's swanky [...]
- Balenciaga Floral Papier Leather Tote | Rose Printed Calfskin Handbag - 2012-03-27 06:13:17-04
Balenciaga embraces its feminine side with this Floral Papier Leather Tote. It's very unusual to see Balenciaga releasing a bag so girly. Ordinarily the label celebrates biker chic with dark leathers and chunky hardware. Its favorite leather is still there, but with all those pink roses covering it's barely recognizable! There's a little hardware too, but [...]
- Longchamp Le Pliage Expandable Travel Tote | Large Khaki Nylon Carryall - 2012-03-28 02:02:08-04
Longchamp tweaks its famous Le Pliage tote for jetsetters with this expandable model. This tote has the distinctive looks of the Le Pliage with some handy features. Most expandable bags simply get bigger by releasing a few zips. They remain essentially the same bags, just a bit bigger. However the central portion of this Le Pliage [...]
- Vale Dorina Della Valle | Tod's Owner Dead at 87 - 2012-03-28 03:21:27-04
Tod's owner Dorina Della Valle passed away yesterday at the age of 87. Della Valle was the grandson of Tod's founder Filippo Della Valle. When his grandfather passed away he gave Della Valle and his brother Andrea the accessories giant and its other notable interests including Hogan, Fay, Roger Vivier, the RCS Media Group, and ACF [...]
- Alexander Wang Speaks Against Lawsuit | Designer Defends Production Facilities - 2012-03-28 03:32:20-04
Alexander Wang has spoken out against allegations of sweatshop-like conditions in his New York City production house. The court case, spearheaded by former employee Wenyu Lu, claims workers toiled for long hours in subpar conditions. It also alleges employment was terminated when workers requested compensation. However Wang says the claims are "completely untrue." "In reality, this case [...]
- Hobo International Paulette Hobo | Vintage Italian Leather Handbag - 2012-03-28 04:54:10-04
Soft glazed leather helps this Paulette handbag from Hobo International turn heads. I've seen the Paulette in various skins, including glossy patents and exotic impersonators, but this buttery leather is the pick of them. We've seen it in Hobo International's other Vintage purses, but it's used to great effect here. The softness of the material makes [...]
- See by Chloe Bryoni Wallet | Cute Watermelon Leather Long Zipper Purse - 2012-03-28 06:05:10-04
See by Chloe's created one of the cutest wallets I've seen in some time with its Bryoni. The gorgeous watermelon colored leather is just darling. It's reminiscent of the coral we all loved last year, but just a bit sweeter for this spring. The hue is the perfect foil for the flowery leather accents which surround [...]
- Brynn Capella Cher Wristlet | Small Black Fabric & Leather Patterned Purse - 2012-03-29 02:36:06-04
Brynn Capella takes inspiration from an unlikely source with her Cher wristlet. The wristlet was named after the designer's cat because just like her precious feline it's cute, small, and always a faithful companion. Some girls will want their go-to bag to be larger, but the Cher punches well above its weight. I love the Cher's soft [...]
- Marion Cotillard Stars in New Lady Dior Commercial | French Actress Models in Handbag Advertisements - 2012-03-29 03:45:12-04
Mila Kunis might have fronted Christian Dior's last advertising campaign, but that doesn't mean the fashion house has forgotten all about its long serving Lady Dior, Marion Cotillard. The French actress is back as the face of Lady Dior handbags in Christian Dior's latest commercials. Peter Lindbergh captured Cotillard at the Communist Party headquarters in her [...]
- Olivia Harris by Joy Gryson Columbier Hobo | Bohemian Woven Straw & Leather Handbag - 2012-03-29 04:49:19-04
Joy Gryson takes bohemian style a step too far with this Columbier bag from her Olivia Harris line. Hobos generally have a relaxed hippie charm about them, but most manage to pull off the look with more style than this. The earthiness of the woven panel sounded good in theory, but the straw doesn't gel with [...]
- Kenneth Cole's New High End Collection | Luxurious Fashion Line with Ponyhair Bags & Wool Coats - 2012-03-29 05:11:07-04
Kenneth Cole is adding a high-end line to his fashion empire. The luxurious but not so originally titled Kenneth Cole Collection is designed with modern cosmopolitan women in mind. "In theory, it's more urban, the woman is on-trend, but is not trendy," explained Cole of his target market. "She's very confident in who she is. She's [...]
- House of Harlow 1960 Riley Clutch | Oversized Geometric Leather Purse - 2012-03-29 06:08:24-04
Add some retro style to your everyday wardrobe with this large Riley clutch from Nicole Ritchie's House of Harlow 1960 line. Nicole Richie's purses generally have a timeless look, but this one seems to have stepped out of the same decade referenced in her fashion label's name. The Riley's poppy geometric design channels the mod fashions [...]
- Vans Beach Bird Purse | Colorful Woven Straw Bag - 2012-03-30 02:52:40-04
Vans helps us get ready for summer with this Beach Bird purse. Its name is a bit misleading, because I can't imagine toting the Beach Bird to my nearest break. While it looks the part, it's too small and too flimsy to serve as a beach bag. Its main compartment should hold everyday items, but it [...]
- Dolce & Gabbana Sues … And Banana | South African Jewelry Store Under Fire - 2012-03-30 03:05:05-04
A light hearted pun is no laughing matter for Dolce & Gabbana. The fashion house is taking a small South African jewelry boutique called Dolce and Banana to task over its parody moniker. To be fair this case hasn't come out of the blue. Dolce & Gabbana apparently contacted Dolce and Banana's owner Mijou Beller six [...]
- Jason Wu Constance Clutch | Rays of Sun Plaque Leather Purse - 2012-03-30 04:36:49-04
An elegant gold plaque makes this Constance Clutch from Jason Wu literally a ray of sunshine. If it weren't for that Louis XIV inspired rays of sun plaque at the corner, this black clutch would surely have blended into the background. However this accent makes the Constance interesting without undermining the eternal elegance of basic black. [...]
- Oscar and Anna's New Has Been Purse | Leather Cross-Body Joins Take Me Out Line - 2012-03-30 05:16:48-04
Oscar and Anna has released the Has Been, the latest addition to its Take Me Out line. While the purse has a sweet retro charm, it seems a little demeaning for a company to suggest it's past its prime! However at least Oscar and Anna's cheeky name won't be forgotten! Names aside, the Has Been has what [...]
- Nixon Boardwalk Hobo | Casual Weathered Leatherette Purse - 2012-03-30 06:44:13-04
Its name conjures up images of eating ice-cream by the Jersey Shore, but Nixon's Boardwalk is really a bag for all seasons. It takes its cues from traditional hobos, but it downplays the style's typical boho leanings. There are no tassels or beads to tizzy up the design. That makes its lines much cleaner, and its [...]
- 7 Chi Grace Mini Bag | Slouchy Studded Black Leather Purse - 2012-03-31 02:21:17-04
7 Chi's lifted its standards to create this Grace mini bag. While the label typically uses real leather, the skin is rarely as plush and buttery soft as it is here. Perhaps by scaling down the purse, the label's been allowed to splash out. Or perhaps it just knew that alluring voluminous shape wouldn't have quite [...]
- Gucci's Rainforest Accessories for Brazil | Limited Edition Pantanal Bags & Scarves in Sao Paulo - 2012-03-31 03:28:07-04
The lush tropical wetlands of western Brazil have inspired Gucci's latest limited edition collection. The accessories from the line, available exclusively in its new Brazilian flagship store, are decorated with the brightly colored foliage and macaws found in the country's Pantanal rainforest. The saturated hues are perfect for spring, but also a bit gaudy to please [...]
- Accessorize Emb Hardcase Heart | Affordable Sequin & Bead Clutch Purse - 2012-03-31 04:37:13-04
Accessorize serves up an affordable alternative to those red carpet minaudieres with this Emb Hardcase Heart. No one will ever mistake this clutch for a Judith Leiber original, but it certainly takes its cues from her glitzy creations. However Accessorize has made some clever design decisions which see this Hardcase Heart costing a lot less. Rather [...]
- Biaggi Readies Folding Luggage | New Collapsible Travel Bags - 2012-03-31 05:13:36-04
New accessories brand Biaggi hopes to make a splash on the travel market with its new lightweight, foldable luggage and carry-on case line. All styles in the collection feature four wheels that rotate a full 360 degrees for easy motion. They also have innovative hinge-lock technology which allows them to fold flat for storage, and signature [...]
- Adidas by Stella McCartney Pack Away Tote | Aqua Recycled Polyester Carryall - 2012-04-01 22:18:17-04
Stella McCartney chooses simplicity over flash with this Pack Away tote from her line for Adidas. Stella McCartney's Adidas products are rarely head-turners, but few are as unassuming as this tote. Its shape is tried and true, and its aqua body free of frills. However it's got a few hidden perks which make it worth a [...]
- Clare Vivier & Melissa Coker Design Reversible Tote | Wren Designer & Clutch Queen Create Star Bag - 2012-04-01 23:33:40-04
Clutch queen Clare Vivier has teamed up with Wren head Melissa Coker to create a striking reversible tote bag. Clare Vivier and Melissa Coker have created several capsule collections and limited edition items together over the past few years, and its seems their enthusiasm for collaborating hasn't wavered. "It was fun to work together again. Melissa's celestial [...]
- Alaia Laser-Cut Leather Clutch | White Calfskin & Patent Purse - 2012-04-02 00:31:45-04
A laser-cut finish makes this envelope clutch from Alaia a real head-turner. Alaia's iconic arabesque pattern is cut cleanly into the white calfskin, allowing the glossy black patent underneath to peek through. Black and white is a classic combination which makes this striking purse more versatile than its contemporary finish might suggest. While it'd look perfect [...]
- Gucci & Guess in Court | Longstanding Copyright Dispute on Trial - 2012-04-02 01:35:43-04
Guess and Gucci have ramped up their ongoing dispute over their signature looks. The fashion houses are facing off in court after Gucci suggested Guess created, in the words of Gucci lawyer Louis Ederer, a "massive, complicated scheme to knock off Gucci's best-known and iconic designs." Gucci particularly has issue with four key design elements. The [...]
- Aldo Swapp Shopper | Bright Colorblocked Mod Leather Purse - 2012-04-02 02:39:35-04
Aldo celebrates mod style with this playful Swapp Shopper. Its rainbow tiles take colorblocking back to its sixties roots. With the bold black lines between each square, the Swapp appears like a Mondrian artwork rather than a mere carry bag. All those colors probably won't be easy to incorporate into a busy wardrobe, but if you [...]
- Shoedazzle Scraps Subscriptions | Kim Kardashian's Website Announces New Business Model - 2012-04-02 03:23:41-04
Kim Kardashian's accessories website ShoeDazzle is changing the way it does business. The company cofounded by the reality starlet is canning its subscription model with the hopes more customers will buy rather than hire. The site's 10 million members previously paid $39.95 each month to rent luxury handbags, footwear, and jewelry. Customers could opt out if [...]
- Alexander McQueen Padlock Bucket Bag | Contemporary Coral Tumbled Calfskin Purse - 2012-04-02 04:15:36-04
Alexander McQueen gives the classic bucket style some modern flair with its Padlock Bucket Bag. The basic bucket shape is there, but its been given a contemporary makeover with oversized zipper pulls, a pretty coral pink color, and a signature golden skull charm. Its gentle slouch comes from the buttery calf leather, which has been tumbled [...]
- Eco Art Bags on EcoPlum | Sustainable Shopping Site Sells Artistic Organic Purses - 2012-04-02 05:45:30-04

The comprehensive Eco Art Bags line features everyday cross-body bags and totes alongside convenient cosmetics travel cases and clutch purses. Each one is crafted from organic cotton emblazoned with an original art work from an American artist, along with [...]
- Alexander Wang Dumbo Clutch | Basic Black Leather Purse - 2012-04-02 06:25:55-04
Alexander Wang seems to be taking pot shots at his own product with this Dumbo clutch. With its versatile design and selection from pockets, it's not lacking in intelligence. And while the leather has a distinctive deep grain, it's actually not made from elephants! I have no clue where Alexander Wang plucked its name from, but [...]
