- Vans Hello Kitty Collage Backpack | Fun Cartoon Character Knapsack - 2012-06-25 23:00:44-04
Vans helps us get in touch with our inner children with this fun Hello Kitty Collage Backpack. Any bag featuring Sanrio's cartoon cat could easily appear a bit juvenile. But by using the outline of the character's face to create a kind of collage, Vans has cleverly made the Japanese cartoon a bit more grown up. [...]
- VBH Manila Clutch | Large Red Eel Evening Purse - 2012-06-26 19:40:18-04
VBH reminds us that the simple things in life are often the best with its Manila clutch. VBH lets the eelskin do all the talking here. The underrated exotic has a gentle luster and delicate scales which I personally feel look more refined than the more common snakeskin. That subtle finish is balanced beautifully by the [...]
- Louis Vuitton Plans Pop-Up Stores | Temporary Outlets for Infinitely Kusama Collection - 2012-06-26 20:21:50-04
Louis Vuitton is offering more ways to shop for its forthcoming Infinitely Kusama collection, a collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The fashion house will open a selection of pop-up shops in key fashion cities to complement the displays in its 463 boutiques around the globe. The maiden pop-up shop will open outside Louis Vuitton's New [...]
- Vera Bradley Laptop Portfolio | Feminine Floral Quilted Tech Bag - 2012-06-26 20:57:02-04
Vera Bradley's created a bag for gadget loving girls with its Laptop Portfolio. This tech bag is available in 14 different prints, but each one is as girly as the next. That might not impress anyone who prefers more minimalist looks, but it gives this Laptop Portfolio a point of difference. There are plenty of androgynous [...]
- Launer London's Sales Jumps | Diamond Jubilee Inspires Growth - 2012-06-26 21:29:51-04
Launer Londer sales are on the up following Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. The British monarch has been a longtime fan of the fashion label's conservative boxy handbags, and it seems the rest of the world is taking note. She's been in the public eye a lot lately, and her favorite purses never seem to [...]
- Christian Louboutin Loubiposh Spiked Wool Tartan Clutch | Nerdily Named But Ultra Cool Spikey Plaid Evening Bag - 2012-06-26 21:55:12-04
I've always liked Christian Louboutin because he sticks to what he knows: accessories. You find him getting tempted by the clothing industry. You might, however, find him getting tempted by the trends. In the case of the Loubiposh, I totally forgive him for it. It combines punk and posh in the best way I can [...]
- Versace Starfish Shoulder Bag | Small Novelty Lambskin Purse - 2012-06-26 22:06:45-04
Versace celebrates the season with this Starfish shoulder bag. This is a very different purse for Versace. I'm used to its cutting edge designs which ooze contemporary cool. This handbag shows the label's sillier side though. A large starfish dominates the purse's semi-circle shaped front, and there are many smaller images of the sea creature printed [...]
- Vieta Terra Hobo | Feminine Leatherette Lace Bow Bag - 2012-06-27 02:50:00-04
Vieta gets girly with its Terra Hobo. The label's used leatherette to create a striking lacey finish. It's such a clever way to use the material. The lace treatment makes the surface seem much richer than a regular leatherette bag. The synthetic is also much stronger than any purse crafted from real lace would be. The delicate [...]
- Olivia Wilde Designs Haiti Messenger Bag | Alternative Apparel Collaboration Raises Funds for School - 2012-06-27 03:23:42-04
Olivia Wilde reminds us that it'll take more work to rebuild Haiti with this cute messenger bag. The actress designed the casual purse in conjunction with American Apparel to help relief efforts following the Caribbean nation's 2010 earthquake. The handbag is crafted from vintage army canvas embellished with antique brass hardware. Strangely though, it's also trimmed [...]
- Vitalio Vera Danska Satchel | Affordable Teal Synthetic Carryall - 2012-06-27 04:54:49-04
Vitalio Vera serves up a fun satchel for less with the Danska. The Danska is far less flamboyant than many of Vitalio Vera's creations. Its soft elongated shape is traditional, and it's free of any real frills. I like the way the teal body contrasts with the brown handles, but there's also a black option if [...]
- Mulberry's New San Francisco Store | First British Boutique in Frisco - 2012-06-27 05:25:05-04
Mulberry's just opened the doors of its first San Francisco store. The boutique, located at 166 Grant Avenue, is a striking tri-level building which oozes nineteenth century style. The building, which spans some 3100 square feet, features retail and gallery space. Handbags, footwear, and women's apparel from Mulberry's core and seasonal lines are amongst the items [...]
- Whiting & Davis Pop Tassels Cross-Body Bag | Orange Metal Mesh Purse - 2012-06-27 06:14:42-04
Whiting & Davis put an exotic spin on its iconic metal mesh with this Pop Tassels Cross-Body Bag. The purse's metal mesh body is classic and simple, although there's nothing classic about that orange color. Personally I feel a bag that plays with tradition as the Pop Tassels does deserves a bit of spice, but it's [...]
- XOXO Radiance Tote | Fun Straw Butterfly Bag - 2012-06-28 02:54:42-04
XOXO keeps it simple with this Radiance Tote. XOXO's usually got such a problem with overembellishment, so I'm thrilled to see it opting for a more minimalist design. Its lines are clean and its shape tried and true. The bold butterfly image is the only real decoration, and XOXO allows it to take center stage. It [...]
- The Row Makes Pricey Patchwork Fur Purse | Luxury Love or Overpriced Monstrosity? - 2012-06-28 03:54:09-04
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen love creating high priced items for their The Row label. Following on from the jaw-dropping $39, 000 alligator backpack they released last year, the sisters have created a bold patchwork fur bag. This statement piece from The Row's pre-fall collection is much cheaper than that much-talked about backpack, but at $17, [...]
- Yak Pak Carrie Tote | Green Skull Fabric Handbag - 2012-06-28 04:33:19-04
Yak Pak never overcomplicates its bags, but it may have created one of its simplest in the Carrie tote. This is a real back to basics bag, with a traditional shape and no fuss. Yak Pak's playful skull print brings a little personality, but you could never call it a head turner. Its sturdy black straps [...]
- Historic Handbag Found | Ancient Dog Teeth Decorated Purse Discovery - 2012-06-28 05:51:01-04
Archaeologists in Germany believe they may have uncovered the world's oldest handbag. They found the prized purse, which is believed to date between 2, 500 and 2, 200 BC, at an excavation site near Leipzig. As you might imagine the fabric has eroded over the years, but what remains is more than a hundred dog teeth [...]
- Yves Saint Laurent Dandy Shoulder Bag | Poppy Red Leather Purse - 2012-06-28 06:36:08-04
There might be changes ahead at Yves Saint Laurent, but we hope the label never loses its knack for creating effortlessly sophisticated accessories. The Dandy shoulder bag is another great example of timeless design. The Dandy is such an elegant number, with a classic flap-over design and lush grained leather. Gentle pleating near the base emphasizes [...]
- Z Spoke Zac Posen Audrey Satchel | Accordion Style Colorblocked Purse - 2012-06-29 02:46:23-04
I was beginning to tire of colorblocked purses, but Zac Posen has reignited my interest with this Audrey satchel from his Z Spoke line. I appreciate that Zac Posen hasn't whacked us over the head with the colorblocking. This is a very restrained example of the style, with a pop of rusty red around the handles. [...]
- PETA Savages Olsen Twins | Animal Rights Group Mad Over The Row's Fur Bag - 2012-06-29 03:03:33-04
Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's overpriced patchwork fur bag might have impressed Rachel Zoe, but we couldn't see what all the fuss was about. We rejected the bag on an aesthetic level, but PETA have slammed the twins' latest exorbitant creation on ethical grounds. PETA never supports the use of fur for fashion, but I can't recall [...]
- Zara Terez Sunset Park Satchel | Classic Practical Black Handbag - 2012-06-29 04:49:06-04
We've seen Zara Terez creating whimsical purses covered with bows and suede mesh in the past, but it takes a more traditional approach to design with the Sunset Park satchel. I must admit, I was initially disappointed by this purse. It's missing that flair that attracted me to the label. It doesn't make a strong style [...]
- Jennifer Hudson Designs QVC Collection | Clutches & Apparel for Curvy Girls - 2012-06-29 05:41:54-04
When Jennifer Hudson announced she was designing a fashion line for QVC celebrating women and their curves, we assumed it'd be all about apparel. However it seems the Oscar winning actress and acclaimed singer has also tried her hand at accessories. This snakeskin printed clutch is a bold complement to the line's sheath dresses, tailored coats, [...]
- See by Chloe Bluma Cross-Body Bag | Pretty Small Apricot Leather Purse - 2012-06-29 06:32:29-04
Embrace your feminine side with this pretty Bluma purse from Chloe's affordable See by Chloe label. I must admit, my head was turned by that delicate apricot color. It's unashamedly feminine, but not as obvious as pink or pastel purple. It's also not very far away from the nudes that are so on trend, so this [...]
- Michael Kors Layton Shoulder Bag | Casual Black Leather Carry-All - 2012-06-30 19:26:57-04
Michael Kors has created an everyday bag for all seasons in the Layton. The Layton's a great all-rounder. It's a good looker that doesn't follow trends. Its black leather will never fall out of favor, and its quality is excellent for the money. I love the way the golden hardware pops against the dark skin. Its [...]
- Princess Vera Wang for Kohl's | Famed Designer Readies Youth Line - 2012-06-30 20:06:37-04
Vera Wang's youth line, Princess Vera Wang, will be available exclusively through Kohl's stores next month. The youth sizing probably excludes all but the most petite adults from indulging in the Princess Vera Wang apparel items, but the young at heart can always enjoy the line's accessories. These include a pink quilted clutch purse and other [...]
- Cleobella Sirena Tote | Large Summery Raffia Bag with Leather Trim - 2012-06-30 20:38:09-04
Celebrate what's left of the season with Cleobella's playful Sirena tote. Woven raffia bags are a dime a dozen, but the Sirena's textured finish is better than most. I love the way Cleobella's used a different stitch around the top and base to create some gentle interest. The naturally toned color is a bit pedestrian but [...]
- Neiman Marcus' Personalized Travel Collection | Customized Vacation Accessories - 2012-06-30 21:16:12-04
Neiman Marcus recently released a personalized travel accessories collection to make your summer vacation run more smoothly. The comprehensive collection features most small items you'll need on your getaway, including a passport cover, luggage tag, flat case, and travel wallet. Each one is crafted from high quality leather in the United States. The pieces are then personalized [...]
- Liebeskind Berlin Lina Hobo | Aqua Buffalo Leather Carryall Bag - 2012-07-01 02:18:21-04
Leibeskind Berlin lets its materials shine with the Lina. The Lina's lush buffalo leather really turned my head. This leather isn't used often in fashion, which is a real shame. However, perhaps if it were more common bags like the Lina wouldn't look as fresh! Buffalo is just as strong as cowhide, and as easy to [...]
- Ashley Greene Stars in New DKNY Campaign | Twilight Actress Models for Fall 2012 - 2012-07-01 19:16:04-04
Ashley Greene has reprised her role as the face of DKNY for the fashion house's fall 2012 campaign. The Twilight actress looks very chic in the advertisement, which sees her wearing an on-trend flared dress and carrying a large top handled satchel. It's not just the Manhattan location that sees this commercial channeling Mad Men. The New [...]
- Jessica Simpson Unforgettable Satchel | Leopard Print Accented Beige Handbag - 2012-07-01 20:22:01-04
It seems Jessica Simpson is seeing the world through rose-colored glasses since giving birth to baby Maxwell. That's the only explanation for her naming this fairly ordinary satchel Unforgettable. Don't get me wrong; this isn't a bad satchel. It just struggles to live up to expectations. I quite like the leopard printed panels near the straps, [...]
- Tamara Ecclestone's Birthday Birkin | Stockbroker Boyfriend's Generous Hermes Handbag Gift - 2012-07-01 21:03:41-04
Cashed up heiress Tamara Ecclestone can own anything her heart desires, which must make her a headache to buy presents for. But her stockbroker boyfriend Omar Khyami refused to be phased. He presented Tamara with a metallic exotic Hermes Birkin bag, worth an estimated £80k, to mark her 28th birthday. A girl can never have too [...]
- Alexander Wang Jane Shoulder Bag | Urban Black Lambskin Handbag - 2012-07-02 02:06:53-04
Alexander Wang does what he does best with the Jane Shoulder Bag. Critics might accuse this bag of simply being more of the same, but I appreciate the way it fits with Wang's creative vision. The New York designer does his best work when he's celebrating the casual coolness of his urban backyard. We've seen him [...]
- Envoyage's Practical Taschen Weekender Purse | Innovative New Swiss Design - 2012-07-02 03:23:03-04
Men have the Swiss Army knife to get through their day, and now women have a Swiss handbag with its own functional features. Otherwise known as the Taschen Weekender, the practical purse from Swiss label Envoyage offers traditional chic styling with a host of hidden extras. Envoyage's chief designer, Claudia Eicke, designed the Taschen to meet [...]
