- Cappelli Ring Bead Handle Tote | Bright and Pretty Summer Bag - 2010-06-07 17:52:01-04
Nothing says summer quite like straw. Oh, apart from beading! This Cappelli tote has both, and that is enough to make me wish I was heading to the beach! There isn't much that is quiet and demure about this purse. The color jumps out at you right away, in a vivacious shade of hot pink that just [...]
- Lambertson Truex Erin Handbag | Leopard Print Pony Hair Shoulder Bag - 2010-06-08 02:05:50-04
Lambertson Truex delivers luxury handbags with luxury price tags attached. But are they really worth the big bucks? In the case of the Erin, I'm not so sure. There's no doubting the quality of this Erin bag. It's been carefully crafted from pony hair, or hair calf as it's often known, a soft downy fabric complemented [...]

The former president of Valentino USA, Bruce Hoeksema has just been named as the new creative director for British luxury label Asprey. Bruce Hoeksema built a relationship with Asprey over the past few years through his consultancy work with the firm, and he designed the label's iconic 1781 and Darcy bags. The latter has an eight-month [...]
- Latico Parquet Bowler Bag | Black Leather Seam Accented East/West Handbag - 2010-06-08 04:05:24-04
The Latico Parquet bag is the kind of bowler that seems far too good for carrying heavy balls and stinky shoes! The domed shape is classic bowler, but the parquet-like seams are far from traditional. The effect is something I rarely see on modern bags, but I always admire a brand which refuses to follow the [...]
- Norton MacCullough & Locke Make Customized Luxury Travel Bags for Wealthy Jetsetters - 2010-06-08 05:05:13-04
The luxury suitcases from new London-based label Norton MacCullough & Locke hearken back to the classic days of travel. They evoke a time when jetsetting was for the elite who carried their cargo in elegant suitcases. Each travel bag from the British brand is a true original, hand-crafted in the label's English workshops using traditional leatherworking [...]
- Laura Matthews Designs 3-Ring Resin Clutch | Black Ruched Leather Purse with Synthetic Accent - 2010-06-08 06:05:48-04
Laura Matthews takes the clutch purse out of the ballroom and into the clubs with this modern 3-Ring Resin Purse. The name comes from the neat three-ring resin accent which sits against the purse's slick patent leather body. I would have preferred to see the rings in a shade with greater contrast, but I suppose the [...]
- Prezzo Square Diamante Box Clutch | Unusual Black-Tie Purse - 2010-06-08 07:39:19-04
Prezzo pull off their old trick of making an unusual bag that costs less than you would imagine with this simple box clutch. Overdecorated box clutches almost always look somewhat ridiculous, so it is good that Prezzo have decided to stick with simple designs for this little creation. The black body, in fact, doesn't have any [...]
- Valentino Crinkled Nuage Bow Bag | Sexy and On Trend Luxury Hobo - 2010-06-08 08:33:10-04
Ooh, I am so glad that Valentino have decided to release this sultry and on-trend version of their beautiful Nuage bag. It is just, for lack of any better words, beautiful! I prefer this new soft crinkled leather to the previous shiny version of this bag. It works perfectly with all the coral and peach shades [...]
- Lauren Merkin Diana Clutch | Black Lambskin Studded Flap Clutch - 2010-06-09 02:05:42-04
Lauren Merkin clutches are always modern, but I don't think I've ever seen one with such edge! This Diana purse is dotted with tiny round and pyramid studs, which are paradoxically both on trend and a little bit dangerous. Yet the purse doesn't lose its femininity thanks to its baby soft lambskin body. This totally touchable [...]
- Italian Actress Isabella Rossellini Designs Signature Handbag for Bulgari - 2010-06-09 03:05:01-04
Revered Italian actress Isabella Rossellini is working with the Bulgari design team on a handbag bearing her name. "My connection with Bulgari dates back to when I was a child and I'd accompany my mother [the legendary Ingrid Bergman] to the historic shop in Via Condotti in Rome," Rossellini explained. "She loved Bulgari jewels." Her Rossellini handbag [...]
- LeSportsac Page Cosmetic Bag | Large Organizer Make-up Travel Train Case - 2010-06-09 04:05:17-04
If those tiny cosmetics pouches barely hold your evening make-up regime, consider upsizing to this functional Page purse from LeSportsac. LeSportsac accessories are all about practicality rather than prettiness, although that's not to say their whimsical designs are without charm. The brand offers ten fun patterns, including diamond printed Bling and psychedelic inspired Big Love. If [...]
- Delsey To Release Karat and CrossTrip Travel Bags - 2010-06-09 05:05:43-04
French luggage label Delsey will release two new collections in September, just in time for end-of-year vacations. As its posh name suggests, the Karat is a line for the discerning traveler. Its modern styling is as original as the jetsetters who are likely to carry it. There's definitely a diamond-like feel to the faceted bodies of [...]
- Linea Pelle Angie Clutch | Simple Chic Brown Lambskin Leather Purse - 2010-06-09 06:05:42-04
Linea Pelle reminds us that the most effective clutch purses aren't always the ones that scream the loudest with the Angie. Just like Miss Jolie, the Angie is a bag which relies on its natural beauty to impress. Two large antique brass buttons are the only accents needed here. The washed lambskin has an intriguing texture, [...]
- Liz Claiborne Electric Slide Tote | Reptile Print Blue Synthetic Handbag - 2010-06-10 02:05:34-04
The ordinarily staid Liz Claiborne walks on the wild side with this Electric Slide tote. While it may have little to do with disco dance moves, there's something electrifying about this tote. Perhaps I'm just impressed because it is so different to Liz Claiborne's usual fare, but I love this sexy scaled print. Liz Claiborne calls [...]
- Fall 2010's Big Bag Trends | Forecasters Predict What We'll Wear Next Season - 2010-06-10 03:05:28-04
While summer weather has well and truly set in, trend forecasters are already casting their gazes to fall. If you want to stay ahead of the game, here's what you should look for in your next season accessory. The runways are full of exotic skins, so if you have several thousand to drop on a bag [...]
- Lodis Grateful Glam Wristlet | Tie Dyed Leather Hippie Purse - 2010-06-10 04:05:34-04
Lodis channels the era of peace and love with this Grateful Glam wristlet. Looking as if it's just stepped out of the swinging sixties, this pouch makes a bold statement with its hippie inspired tie dye print. It looks authentically vintage, but I don't think the flower power children were dying genuine leather back in the [...]
- Gucci Introduces Green Packaging and Practices in Boutiques Worldwide - 2010-06-10 05:05:04-04
Gucci is making good on its pledge to reduce paper use with the introduction of all new eco-friendly packaging and practices.

- London Fog Wembley Satchel | 16″ Olive Plaid Classic Handbag - 2010-06-10 06:05:14-04
With a name like the Wembley, it's no surprise that this plaid satchel is a thoroughly proper British lass. This isn't a satchel that takes a lot of risks, but that makes it an elegant choice for those who prefer a more classic fashion look. There's a definite British air about its olive colored plaid body, [...]
- Lug Life Round-trip Skipper Bag | Functional Travel Shoulder Pouch - 2010-06-10 07:55:46-04
Some bags have to be all about the function. When you go on holiday you need to have a bag that allows you to carry all of your most important belongings - your passport, your cash - around with you. You need them to be close to your body, so that you are less likely [...]
- Tiffany Butterfly Tote Bag | Beautiful and Affordable Art Nouveau Purse - 2010-06-10 17:41:45-04
I do love a good bit of pretty! I love it even more when it costs just $24.99! Don't we all love something beautiful and Art Nouveau? Yup, I thought so. There is just something about the beautiful watercolor shades and the strong black stained glass lines that makes it utterly attractive to look at. Plus, [...]
- Loop NYC Dazed and Confused Hobo | Raspberry Pink Patterned Fabric Slouchy Handbag - 2010-06-11 02:05:44-04
Loop NYC definitely channels the trippy hippie vibe of the 60s with its Dazed and Confused hobo. There's a real hallucinogenic quality about the vibrant pink and white body of this slouchy purse. The giddy mottled finish is accented by whimsical blood red butterfly and circular designs. The combination results in a purse that's undeniably girly, [...]
- Mulberry Announces Affordable Handbag Collection for Target - 2010-06-11 03:05:51-04
British fashion house Mulberry is the latest high-end designer to announce a diffusion handbag line for Target. Details are scant at this point, although with Emma Hill, the designer behind the brand's popular Alexa bag, involved in the project our hopes are high. "At this stage we aren't able to offer more details on the collection although [...]
- Luba J Vivienne Shoulder Bag | Aged Gray Leather Handbag - 2010-06-11 04:05:44-04
The old world meets the new with this stylish Luba J Vivienne handbag. The tumbled leather has a beautifully aged appearance which contradicts its years. While the bag itself looks modern, the washed gray leather appears as if it knows a few secrets. It's an interesting counterpoint to the Vivienne's contemporary flared shape and the edgy [...]
- Mielie Reclaimed Cotton Bags Give Hope to South Africa - 2010-06-11 05:05:06-04
We've all fallen in love with South Africa as we've watched the country celebrate their World Cup hosting duties. Mielie gives us a chance to support the nation's poorest communities, and enjoy a cute and colorful handbag at the same time. Mielie is the African word for corn, a fitting moniker on several levels. Not only [...]
- Lucky Brand Hightime Tote | Embroidered Floral Canvas Handbag - 2010-06-11 06:05:46-04
Lucky Brand shows its sensitive side with the Hightime Tote. While the label's handbags ordinarily suit women who steer clear of girly embellishments, the Hightime is one which embraces its femininity. The embroidered floral design has a gorgeous vintage appeal. It's disappointing then that Lucky Brand has kept the back perfectly plain. I'd love to see [...]
- Lucky Brand Embroidered Shopper | Old-Fashioned Canvas Tapestry Bag - 2010-06-11 09:19:21-04
A tapestry bag is one style that will never fully go out of fashion - and with the selection of gorgeous denim and grungy looks on the high-street at the moment it will be even cooler than normal. This Lucky Brand shopper is one such example of a traditional tapestry bag that manages to work well [...]
- Bourne Glitzy Tatiana Clutch | Jewelled and Diamante Evening Bag - 2010-06-11 18:22:40-04
Bourne has gone totally over the top with this jewelled Tatiana clutch. OK, so this particular glitzy evening bag isn't quite to my personal tastes. The jewels look randomly stuck on, and I would prefer them if they were more symmetrical. Add to that a bright lime satin fabric and a thick encrusting of diamante around [...]
- Lulu Guinness Snakeskin Clutch | Bold Affordable Synthetic Purse - 2010-06-12 02:05:24-04
Lulu Guinness does cheap and cheerful with style with this faux snakeskin clutch. With its outlandish colors, this purse doesn't try to convince us it's made of real snakeskin. But its vibrant shades are a great complement to the black mottled python-like print. They create a look that seems ready for a party, although probably one [...]

As the globe is gripped by football fever, I think I may have found the perfect handbag for your World Cup parties. This cute soccer ball bag is actually made from a reclaimed ball. While many eco activists shun the use of leather in fashion items, in this case I think we should all make an [...]
- Hobo International Foster Tote | Large Double Handle Cross Body - 2010-06-12 11:32:21-04
It is nice to see a refreshing twist on an old favourite with this simple black tote that Hobo International have updated with a new shape. There is no unnecessary embellishment with the Foster tote. Instead, the soft and pliable leather is left to speak for itself. however, that aforementioned shape keeps it fresh and new. [...]

- Savanna Y & S Woven Box Clutch | Dramatic Metallic Evening Bag - 2010-06-13 13:07:19-04
I have to admit that I haven't ever heard of the Savanna brand before. However, if everything they produce is like the affordable little Y & S box clutch then I shall have to pay a little more attention in future. This purse, you see, costs only $30. This does suggest that the quality isn't the [...]
- Mad Imports May Y Sol Jujube Tote | Quirky Crocheted Handbag with Rosettes - 2010-06-13 22:04:24-04
Mad Imports delivers a tote befitting its name with the Jujube. It's more than a little mad, but summer is the season for getting crazy! If you love to stand out from the pack, carrying the Jujube tote is an easy way to do it. The crocheted raffia body is a traditional idea, but its diamond [...]
- Magid Milan Straw Shoulder Bag | Fuchsia Flap Purse with Chain Strap - 2010-06-14 00:27:52-04
Few fabrics say summer like straw. It might not last longer than a season or two, but bags made from this affordable woven fiber are perfect for stepping out in the sun. While many labels dabble with the material, Magid is a straw specialist. Here it's taken the traditional flap purse made famous by designers like [...]

The Italian label name translates to Hill Road, a reference to the brand's eco-friendly ethos and its designer Hillary Taymour. The Los Angeles native uses a combination of 100% organic leather, and what she calls [...]
- Marc Jacobs Casey Tote | Blue Quilted Jersey Handbag with Belt Accent - 2010-06-14 02:05:25-04
Lately we've spoken about our dying love affair with Marc Jacobs, the once exciting handbag designer who lately has failed to really impress us. The Casey is another one of his recent creations which simply misses the mark. Quilting ordinarily adds luxury to a fabric, but when you're starting with jersey material it's hard to muster [...]
- South African Handbag and Accessory Brand Missibaba Empowers Local Women - 2010-06-14 03:12:06-04
Don't let the men in your life try to kid you; the World Cup is about more than football. The event has done wonders in boosting the profile of South Africa and its people, including its handbag designers. The latest label to catch my eye is Missibaba, a Cape Town based company developed by London College [...]

Mary Frances is a designer that never does things by halves. As its name suggests, her Indigo Indulgence purse celebrates that kind of excess.

- Matt & Nat Tundra Satchel | Zipper Accented Chevron Seam Vegan Handbag - 2010-06-14 06:05:15-04
Matt & Nat shows us that zips can do more than keep your cargo safe and sound with the Tundra Satchel. There's the obligatory zipper running along the top, but most of the hardware has a less practical, yet no less pleasing, purpose. The metal brings edge to the chevron shape seams, creating a look which [...]
- Latico Vyntage Finger Hole Clutch | Interesting Leather Purse with Cutout Design - 2010-06-14 07:41:48-04
How to jazz up a simple black bag? Add finger holes rather than a handle, of course! This Latico clutch does get boosted from boring to "edgy" thanks to that little cutout design feature. I do wonder if the holes may be cut a little too small for most fingers - but I suspect that really [...]
- Marc by Marc Jacobs Catherine Leather Tote | Chic Understated Black Leather Handbag - 2010-06-14 10:12:37-04
The Marc by Marc Jacobs line is replete with hip, trend-setting designs.

The Catherine tote is a really every woman sort of a bag. It has an augmented [...]
