Jimmy Choo Alex Suede Shoulder Bag 2007-10-27 14:45:00 It's the first week of Summer but stores are starting to feel like Fall. I am always perplexed by this strange retail phenomenon of selling Summer clothes when it's snowing outside and hawking Furs in the dead heat of August. I understand they are trying to maximize sales by putting it on the floor early but wouldn't it make more sense to sell bikinis and hot pants in June instead of Feb? Maybe then they wouldn't be forced to mark it down to 75% off. Not that I am complaining, I grabbed the most amazing Summer stuff at Barneys and Neiman Marcus this month, just in time for the warm weather! But let's get back to the real reason I am writing you, the arrival of Fall bags at Net-a-Porter. I haven't seen any worthy to mention until this Jimmy Choo Alex suede bag caught my eye (cuz I am a sucker for chocolate suede and overdose in it each Fall). This lush suede hobo looks very comfy and soft, and I love that it is secured by a strap above the opening, good for people in big cities wh Read more:Shoulder
Jimmy Choo Mave Clutch 2007-10-27 14:38:00 Jimmy Choo's electric blue Mave foldover clutch caught my eye this weekend while browsing the web for Memorial weekend sales, I just love a jolt of brightness with my summer whites! I have the oversized Marin clutch in white and think it's a more functional size but the Mave is super adorable and either size will work for luncheons or evenings out.I love the wristlet strap on the clutch, you can hang the clutch from your bag hook or on the back of your chair, it's always awkward trying to figure out where to put your clutch when sitting at a table, leave it in your lap and risk food dropping on it? Or put it on the floor to get dirty or stepped on? It also leaves my hands free at cocktail parties, it's comical to watch women balancing their clutches in one hand, champagne in the other while trying to shove hors d'oeuvre in their mouths! Fold over clutches are the hot look this season and this is one of my favorites, I love the suede and leather contrast with buckle and stripe on b Read more:Clutch
Jimmy Choo Anaconda Mahdi Handbag 2007-10-27 14:32:00 I love lunching with my girlfriends, not only are they the sweetest and funniest group of women on earth, they always carry the best bags ! Especially my friend Kim, she's the only person in the world who induces bag envy in me so you can only imagine how delicious her bag collection is.Kim and I joined our crew at Neiman Marcus downtown for juicy brisket and lobster salad the other day and one of the girls had a bag that I could not take my eyes off. It was a luscious cream colored Anaconda
bag trimmed in buttery soft cream suede. Do you want to melt now or should I continue? I kept asking to see it and really just wanted to steal it from her but she had about 10 pounds of "stuff" in it so it would have been hard to discreetly stick it in my Valextra Boston bag and run off with it. So what was this bag that captured my attention through lunch you ask? It was the Mahdi
from Jimmy Choo, are you surprised? I'd never seen the Anaconda version of the Mahdi before and it looked completely Read more:Handbag
Dior Ethnic Zip Shoulder Bag with a hanging heart tag is chic 2007-10-26 09:59:00 Dior is the name that’s synonymous with elegance and sophistication.

Mulberry Litchfield Leather Messenger Handbag 2007-10-23 02:33:00 When it comes to fashionable messenger bags, there is certain criteria one must meet in order to become a favorite of mine. On one hand, I like it to be rich and stylish but on the other it has to be functional enough to make it a smarter choice than just carrying a large tote or satchel.Having said that, I think Mulberry
hit the nail on the head with their Litchfield LeatherMessenger
Bag. With a gorgeous khaki darwin leather exterior and brass buckles this little guy has no problem with the style aspect for sure. Two nifty pouch pockets on the front are sure to hold all your nifty little objects, while the large 15 x 10 x 3 inch inside compartment should be plenty big enough for your laptop or books.

Cameron Diaz: THE SUMMER MARNI BALLOON 2007-10-19 00:52:00 Cameron Diaz was here in NY and she still seems to be causing a stir… she just left Peru where she needed to issue an apology for the bag she was toting on her shoulder and here she got into a scuffle with a photographer.She could probably knock him out with the bag she has strapped around her body. I LOVE big bags but this one doesn’t do it for me. The Balloon Marni Bag in Saffron and Cigar; comes in a variety of colors (hence the name) priced at $1370.

Birkin from Queens 2007-10-19 00:38:00 Francesca Inguaggiato explains to us that just because you are from Queens
, doesn't mean you can't aspire to a Birkin.Many women all agree upon one thing - that all their handbags are diverse; small, large, day-wear, night-wear, work bags, sports bags, etc. I could say that the handbags that I own are very different as well. I was influenced on purchasing one of my most recent handbags because I was heading in a new direction in my life. There are women who obsess over handbags, as I can agree I am one of them. There are those women who buy based on a pure admiration for a handbag design, while others purchase handbags because they are in need for a change; they're heading in a new direction, and are in need of something more versatile for this purpose.In my case, the direction I was heading in was something completely major and life changing - college. When you head off to college, you think about changing your image to something more simple, yet stylish and convenient- especially
louis vuitton men's catwalk spring 2008 2007-10-17 06:41:00 "Blue skies, smiling at me, nothing but blue skies…" Irving Berlin's golden oldie anticipated the dominant color on the men's catwalks for Spring 2008, and the joie de vivre he was describing when he penned the lyric seems to be have infected the season—first in Milan, and now Paris. Paul Helbers, Marc Jacobs' menswear maestro at Louis Vuitton, launched the label's latest presentation with a passage that was cheery blue, from cap to carryall.The show was called "Moon Beach"—picture a sci-fi dream of a fin de siècle summer in Biarritz and you're somewhere close to its distinctive blend of high tech and soft touch. Helbers and his team have been experimenting with cut, and their efforts produced something they called a "spiral," an innovation that looked like a diamond patchwork on jackets and waistcoats. There was also a "parasol cut," which apparently folds like an umbrella around the body. It was particularly spectacular in the sun ray of colors in a nylon blouson, over wh
Lindsay Lohan does the Choo 2007-10-17 00:17:00 While LiLo has been making headlines with her lack of air flow and now her admitted bulimic and drug use bout, the actress was able to stay stylin’.Down in my hometown of Miami, Florida, Lilo was spoted with her dark-dark hair and a beautiful blue bag (I’m pretty sure she gave her ’signature’ peace sign a few times too ). What bag is it you may wonder? Well it is the Jimmy Choo Leather Tote so many of us have been drooling over since I wrote about it a few days back. The bag is bold, big, beautiful, and blue. Let’s all give LiLo a little slack after a rough week down in Mia and give her the nod of approval for the bag at least.Posted by Megsmore luxuryhandbag click luxuryhandbag Read more:Lindsay

Gucci Monogram Hobo Horsebit Bag 2007-09-22 07:34:00 by Lauren0924Review: The GucciMonogram
Hobo Horsebit purse is my all time favorite purse! I absolutely love it! I have had it for over a year and it’s still perfect and beautiful. I have the Extra Large Version, and it is huge! It’s perfect for me. I have it in the fuchsia color which is so very me. It also comes in black, brown, cream, white, and tan. When I got it, it came with a dust cover to keep it safe and clean in and tags of authenticity. The bag itself is fuschia and monogrammed with the Gucci’s signature logo all over it. The handle is fuchsia leather and has gold detail. It has 4 gold studs on it and 2 large gold hoops. I may be biased but this is the prettiest purse! It first came to my attention on the MTV show Newlyweds, when Jessica Simpson was often seen with one of many versions of this bag. I fell in love with it, bought it and am so glad I did! I have used it everyday for over a year and it has yet to show any wear or tear or anything. At one point a stud came
News: From Hermes to Eternity 2007-09-09 00:53:00 For those of you who have or those of you who want, there is a great article about the artisans behind Hermes
in Vanity Fair. With the price tag of a Birkin starting around $7,000 now, many people may wonder why the large price tag. The artisans meticulously work on each Birkin, spending between 18 to 25 hours creating it. The Paris workrooms produce only five Birkins per week, which then are supplied world wide. It now makes sense why the wait lists are so long. Yet luxury prices continue to go through the roof. People seem to have no issue spending over $1000 on a handbag, which two years ago seemed steep. A $2500 bag is the new $1000 bag. When will it end?Almost two centuries ago, a royal coronation might be delayed until the arrival of its exquisitely stitched Hermès carriage fittings, just as today even the richest women must wait for an exquisitely stitched Hermès Birkin bag. With the family-run French company passing to a sixth generation, the author chronicles its rise to glo Read more:Eternity

Juicy Couture It-Girl Fairy Tale Shoulder Bag 2007-05-20 00:05:00 The It-Girl Fairy Tale Shoulder
Bag by JuicyCouture
is fashioned in natural canvas with grained leather trim. Accented with antiqued silver metal hardware, this really cute bag carries with a leather shoulder strap with adjustable buckle and links. What really offsets this bag is the top flap with the Juicy fairy tale-embossed plate and lock closure. I'll have to say, I think Juicy Couture
is finally growing up and getting away from that whole teen scene thing. This very smart and ohhh sooo stylish bag looks like something I'll need to save my lunch money for! Measuring 15x8x6.5, you can pick up this little number at eLuxury for $450.by:pursing

Louis Vuitton Dentelle Kirsten 2007-03-30 12:50:00 After the mess that was heard round the world, the Louis
Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag, LV is still trying to redeem itself with more limited edition handbags that they hope will sit better with the world. This is where the Louis Vuitton
Dentelle line comes into play, the line touted as the lace underwear line. Oddly enough, Marc Jacobs named the Louis Vuitton Dentelle Kirsten
after Kirsten Dunst. She is not in my mind what I would consider the romantic, elegant, prim and proper gal (that is unless we are thinking of her in Marie Antoinette), but Marc felt the need to pay homage to her, so be it. The Dentelle line itself has me on a fence, do I love the 18th Century inspired lace look or is it totally tacky? It is subtle, but I do believe to appreciate the beauty you would have to be up close. Under the lace is LV monogram canvas, which is not really fitting with delicate lace. But it does the job. Help me jump from one side of the fence to the next; Yay or Nay on the Dentelle line and
Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag 2007-03-30 12:46:00 Avoiding this bag like the plague or a wretched over-sized scarlet letter, I have placed my eyes and mind behind a rock for as long as I can. But there is so much fuss over this egregious error in the handbag world, that I might as well give my 2 cents. Limited edition handbags give us purse fanatics something to drool over, to lust after, to want. Louis
Vuitton has released many limited edition lines in the past that were total hits. But there comes a time when no matter how limited something is, no matter how much fuss goes behind it, no matter how limited the quantity is, the product just plain old sucks. That is exactly what we are facing with the Louis Vuitton
Tribute Patchwork
Bag which combines samples of 15 different Louis Vuitton Handbags from the spring/summer cruise line. There is a little of this and a little of that. The ‘this’ is seriously hideous while the ‘that’ makes my eyes burn as if I have looked into the burning sun for about 5 days straight. It is like a t

The gorgeous bag is available in white, measures 11x10 1/2x3 and sells for $3,127 at Saks. Beautiful…
Dior Metallic Cannage Shoulder Bag 2007-03-14 22:37:00 Okay, forget what I've always said about overpriced handbags, this Metallic
Cannage Shoulder
Bag from Dior is one big attention getter. Fashioned in quilted metallic lambskin, it features cannage pattern embroidery and is accented in aged metal hardware. I just love the way the flat leather shoulder straps are woven through the large grommets and I'm really loving the logo jacquard lining. With plenty of interior pockets, and the unmistakable signature "D" charm you can buy this classy little bag at eLuxury. Available in Aged Gold or Aged Silver, it measures 19x9x7. With a price tag of $1,795, it'll definitely set you back a few paychecks, and you may starve for a few months, but who cares, at least you'll look good carrying it, right?by:pursing
Miu Miu Coffer Suede Bag 2007-10-30 16:07:00 How incredibly cute is this bag? Miuccia Prada's whimsical style shines through everything she designs for Miu Miu
, her self professed alter ego. Unlike Prada's simple chic esthetics, the Miu Miu girl is funky, fun, and sometimes eccentric, but always fabulous!The Coffer suede bag in chocolate brown is to-die, we love the braided handle and the multi layered top flap, and the ruching on the suede makes it that much more luxurious (and yes, it does resemble a bit like your aunt's sharpei puppy but we'll forgive as it makes the bag SO soft). You know how practical we are, we wouldn't tell you to buy something that wasn't multi-purpose. This is also a wonderful bag to cuddle up to when you're on the plane, train, or chauffered automobile. $1295 at Net-a-Porter.from:bagsnobmore luxuryhandbag click brandname handbag
Tod's Besonville in Patent 2007-11-05 07:58:00 OK, so I am a little obsessed with Tod's Besonville but come on, you have to admit it is a practical, stylish and young bag that will live by your side for years and years.For Fall they are doing it in a slightly crackled distressed patent which makes it more urban and gives it snazziness for those that find this super functional bag a tad boring. There is one slight modification - there is an additional flap pocket on the side instead of a slit opening pocket. I personally like the slit opening for my cell but the flap has a magnetic closure so it still has easy access and is slightly more secure for phone, keys or bluetooth. Now the question is, how many of these can I have before it is officially considered overboard? I guess you change the words "of these" to bags and it is the same question. No such thing as too much money or too many bags (and yes there is such a thing as too skinny). At Saks for $1450.by:bagsnobmore luxuryhandbag click brandname handbag Read more:Patent
