Dolce & Gabbana Leather Charm Bag - 2012

When I think of summer I am reminded of fruit.My parents home had about 6 fruit trees.My favorite was the grapefruit tree.The branches were filled with huge perfect grapefruit and the branches came all the way down to the ground.We used to have to pull apart the branches to walk in and under the canopy.Yet, being kids, my siblings and i used to spend most of our time throwing the grapefruit at each other.Seemed like a good idea at the time.But those remind me of my summer days.And what better way is there to ring in spring and summer than with fruit? The Dolce & Gabbana Leather Charm Bag is a tote with white leather and offset by tonal stitching.There are top handles with silver metal rings which attach to the base of this simplistic white bag.But the summery fun comes with the tie detail with fruit and logo charms.The cherry and orange charm which attach to the D & G respectively give this bag such a summer feeling that it brings a smile to my face.But like usual, the simplistic bag does not always match itself up with the simplistic price tag.For some reason, this bag is available for $1695 through Bergdorf Goodman.

Gucci creates one-of-a-kind crocodile bag for its Korean flagship store - 2012

For a handbag collector, having a one-of-a-kind bag from your favorite brand is something you always hope to be able to do.Getting the opportunity, though, can be costly.Most major firms will make certain bespoke items for their VIP clients, but attaining that status requires a long history of major purchases before the privilege of buying such a bag is even granted, not to mention that the bags themselves usually cost well above the brand's other pieces because of the costly process of producing a one-off design.

If you'd like to skip that and merely shell out the back-breaking price for a piece that no one else will have,Cheap handbags, you might want to get in contact with Gucci's Seoul flagship store.Gucci recently revamped the location, and to celebrate, the brand launched both the Gucci Bamboo Crocodile Satchel above, a one-off piece priced at approximately $23, 000 US, and a special line of Flora bags and accessories featuring the national flower of Korea, the Mukunghwa.Check out some of those pieces after the jump!

The Flora accessories range in price from around $205 to $1770 for items from bow ties to luggage bags, according to Women's Wear Daily, and are only available through Gucci Seoul.If you'd like to get one of these bags for yourself, contact the store at 82.1577.1921.

eBay ordered to pay $61mil in damages - 2012

About two weeks ago, we reported that eBay had lost a counterfeit case with Hermes.In that instance, eBay got away with being fined a mere 20, 000 Euros.As a few of our readers pointed out to us today,Discount christian louboutin shoes, eBay got a hefty slap on the wrist this time.

PARIS "�? A French court on Monday ordered the online auction giant eBay to pay 38.6 million euros, or $61 million, in damages to the French luxury goods company LVMH, in the latest round in a long-running legal battle over the sale of counterfeit goods on the Internet.

LVMH, a maker of high-end leather goods, perfumes and other fashion and luxury products, successfully challenged eBay for a second time in the French court, arguing that 90 percent of the Louis Vuitton bags and Dior perfumes sold on eBay are fakes.

The court ruled that eBay, which earns a commission on the sales, was not doing enough to stamp out counterfeit sales.

via New York Times

We can only hope that this ruling will aid in removing some of the fake junk off eBay.It is the buyer that would benefit most of it.

Tod's Goa Messenger Media - 2012


Tod's Goa Messenger Media

Tod's bags are synonymous for their elegant and timeless style. If you are looking for a handbag that will transcend throughout many seasons to come, turning to Tod's is one of the best answers. But I love to see Tod's take a little risk. Sure, not a huge risk, but a little risk is always nice because it may pay off. The Tod's Goa Messenger Media takes a different approach with the double layer braided shoulder strap and ruching on the sides. The back of the bag features gathered folds. Available in ink blue smooth grained leather, the color is a subtle and stunning option that will transfer from season to season. There is polished silver metal hardware and metal tipped ties on the side. I actually really am drawn to this bag. It is subtle yet different. And while it is not shockingly different,Air jordans shoes for sale, it gives the perfect little change to the clean lines we know for Tod's. Buy through eLuxury for $1,800.

Tory Burch Rayna Nubuck Mini Bag - 2012

Well, this is quite the interesting one. Even though this Tory Burch Rayna Nubuck Mini Bag has a seemingly perfect score on my checklist of things I like in handbags, something seems a bit off. Let's take a closer look.

It's purple, and I don't have a problem with that beautiful grape shade at all- check. It's a crossbody, which is my favorite handbag style- check. The chunky whipstitching is combined with tough suede nubuck leather,Mbt Shoes on Sale, giving it a nice hand-tooled look- check. So what is it that's unsettling? I even like the juxtaposition of the rough suede with the clean, classy, bright gold links.


Well, my friends, I'm concluding that the single element that's been throwing me off is the logo, smack dab on the front of the flap. Tory Burch has been doing wonderfully on departing from her logo in recent designs- but this bag needs a smaller logo, like its slicker cousin: the Tory Burch Distressed Metallic Mini Bag. Buy through Bloomingdale's for $250.

When you travel it is important to make sure your man carries a bag along too. My handbag gets heavy from long days of walking and I always need a helping hand. Vlad carries his Louis Vuitton Taiga Dersou Messenger Bag with him and I begin to unload my unwanted items. That way my purse is lighter, my shoulder stops aching, and my man can carry my essentials that essentially hurt. Tod's is a great designer to turn to for sturdy, stunning,www.chaneloutlet360.com, manly designs. They are not feminine, yet they can definitely be classified as stylish. Take a load off your shoulder and tell your man (or buy your man) the Tod's Messenger Bag. The dark brown textured leather gives off a masculine color and the contrast stitch keeps the bag from looking drab. I love the toned down shoulder strap, which is made with canvas. The hardware is metal and there are accessory compartments on the inside. The compartments, of course, are for you to help your man organize his things or your things. The dimensions would fit a small lap top, but if you are packing heavy machinery (17″ Mac Book Pro a la Vlad and I) you either need a bigger bag or to leave your lap top at home.

Yohji Yamamoto Leather Bag with Metal Rings - 2012

Kooba Rio Metal-Tipped Patent Leather ToteWhiting & Davis mixes its traditional metal mesh with metallic leatherFelix Rey Mini Metal Mesh Ruffle BagB. Makowsky Metal Edge Pleated Hobo ,chanel for sale

You know what I like? I like it when brands that we don't normally associate with handbags make a handbag line. Why do I like that so much? Sometimes, I think that the traditional handbag brands get so bogged down in their own branding that they can't see past it to innovate or make something exciting. I've heard many complain that that seems to be the case with Chanel lately, and I might agree. So I'm always looking for unexpected things, and today I saw the Yohji Yamamoto Leather Bag with Metal Rings.

I have no idea how long it's been out; I never click on the designer at eLuxury since he's not known for his bags. Although it doesn't appear so different than a regular bag at first, something about the proportion and handle look really interesting to me. It's entirely functional in pretty much every way that it needs to be, but it still has a minimalist, architectural quality to it that most designers don't think about incorporating when making a hobo bag out of soft leather. In the face of established designers becoming complacent, it's nice to see a relative outsider in the high-end handbag market do something interesting. Buy through eLuxury for $2000.

It's easy to love a bag when it's caught by Tommy Ton's camera, but this design is striking in real life as well.The shape and structure are almost deceptively simple, which calls even more attention to the bold H closure and spare, austere details.This is the kind of handbag that you could use day in and day out for the rest of your life and it will never,Cheap Chanel Handbags, ever look dated.For more information, visit Hermes.com.

With all the thinking I've been doing today about Hermes, it seemed particularly serendipitous that I would come across this utterly lovely photo of a very fashionable lady carrying the Hermes Constance on photographer Tommy Ton's Jak & Jil blog.While this design doesn't have the ardent and ravenous following of the Birkin or Kelly, I think we can all agree that its lines are elegant in a way that only Hermes can pull off.The curve of the gussets, the sharp corners of the handle attachement - it's all perfect.And what's even more perfect is that the Constance costs thousands of dollars less than a Birkin.Maybe this is the Hermes bag for me.

Every season, I fervently hope that the brand's runway bags will be fabulous enough to inspire the sort of devotion and panicked credit card-swiping that its shoes do, and my dreams are so rarely answered. Second-guessing Miuccia Prada is a rare thing for me to do, but in this case,www.buycheaplouisvuitton4u.com, a couple new members to her team might serve the overall brand (and handbag lovers everywhere) well. In the past few seasons, purses seem to be something of a lost business opportunity for the brand, and a well-positioned label like Miu Miu should be turning out It Bags hand over fist.

I'm not saying that the Miu Miu Spring 20 handbags are bad; they're not. They're fine for the very narrow look of this runway show, but they're not particularly relevant to anything beyond it, and most of them certainly don't look like what the Miu Miu customer carries in her day-to-day life. I'd carry one because I'm a huge, unapologetic Miu Miu fangirl,Louisvuittonnus.com, but beyond that,Louis Vuitton Sale, I can't see these bags having a wider appeal.

It's difficult to think of new ways to make a basic tote shape new and different, and although I really like the Badgley Mischka Suzanne Tote, I'm not sure that it can really be called "new" or "different." After all,Cheap chanel handbags, Beirn has a line of woven watersnake totes already. But sometimes different isn't a necessity, particularly in the face of a reasonably priced exotic bag that can be used year-round and all day.

This bag doesn't photograph particularly well because of the mixture of weaving and the the natural snake pattern, but in person, woven snake bags almost always look great. The double pattern provides a depth of visual field that's hard to achieve otherwise, and a somewhat random pattern like this one helps eliminate any signs of wear and tear, even on a bag that's mostly light-colored. For about $500, this is quite a bit of real snakeskin, used in a way that almost any woman could incorporate into her wardrobe. Buy through Zappos for $502.

It's hard to find a bag that's multicolored but still convincingly neutral, full of texture but not functionally impaired, and still within a somewhat reasonable price range. Add real snakeskin to the mix and that mission becomes nearly impossible. But somehow, Badgley Mischka not only managed to do it, but the did it better than Beirn.

Two stunning Proenza Schouler PS1s hit NAP today - 2012

Shop Proenza Schouler via Net-A-Porter

Today Vlad and I traveled down to South Florida for a much-needed vacation. We plan to spend this time flopping from the pool to the beach with drinks in our hands, but I couldn't go to bed without sharing a sneak peek I received in my email today. Our friends at Net-A-Porter know how much we love Proenza Schouler bags and decided to give our readers an exclusive look at two new PS1 bags hitting their virtual store today.

From a gorgeous wine hued suede to a luxurious brushed python, I find myself yearning for each of these bags.


My coveted Crocodile PS1 is one of the most amazing bags I have ever owned and the exotic skin is of the highest quality. Certainly the quality of the extra large brushed-python satchel will be superb as well, and I imagine the duo behind Proenza were able to make python skin both look and feel soft. Price will be $5250.

And then we have the classic large PS1 suede satchel in a rich red hue. If you have been looking for a fall messenger bag in a color that is both wearable and alluring,www.chaneloutlet360.com, this is an amazing choice. Price will be $1995. Shop Proenza Schouler bags via Net-A-Porter.

Brian Atwood's first handbag collection launches at Gilt - 2012.

Brian Atwood's first handbag collection launches at Gilt - 2012.

Translating a winning design aesthetic from shoes to handbags can be tricky.Just ask Christian Louboutin, who has the footwear world by the tail but is still trying to figure out his perfect handbag formula.Brian Atwood, another shoe designer that inspires fainting spells among the heel-inclined, is also taking his first serious steps into the handbag arena, starting with a collection of clutches that launched yesterday on Gilt.com.

Clutches are a smart place to start for shoe designers; not only do their existing customers (buyers of many pairs of impractical, expensive shoes) likely have the lifestyle to need clutches, but smaller bags lend themselves well to embellishment and experimentation.In this small group (and no, just because the sale is on Gilt doesn't mean there's a discount), the geometrically embellished minaudieres are what really shine.The envelope clutches, on the other hand,Louis Vuitton Outlet, are a bit basic, but based on his shoes, I'm sure Atwood will find his footing and expand on these ideas soon.Check out all of the clutches, priced from $1050 to $1850, after the jump, or shop now via Gilt.com.

Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York Spring 2012 BCBG Max Azria - 2012

All photos via Style.com

Because BCBB Max Azria is a brand that's so widely carried an advertised, most of us probably have some preconceived notions about what the brand's collections will look like:pretty, contemporary, wearable.While those adjectives translate into strong retail sales, they can sometimes make for a forgettable runway, which is a problem for a collection that's shown so early in the show season.For Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week New York Spring 20, though, Azria took a page from another New York designer, and I can't help but feel a tad excited.These are not clothes I'll forget by the end of the week.

Is it just me, or can you feel the specter of Proenza Schouler looming over this collection? And that's meant in the best way possible; what we see here are edgy,Chanel Handbags outlet, modern clothes that don't lose the wearability for which BCBG is known for even a second.The maxi dresses in particular, with their mix of patterns and solids, neutral and brights, will surely be a favorite by the time 20′ s warm season rolls around.A gallery of show highlights, after the jump.

Miu Miu Oversized Suede Clutch - 2012

The oversized handbag trend is still lingering, so many designers are deciding to keep riding the oversized wave and move on to clutches.What many designers cease to remember is that a clutch is meant to be carried in your hand.Make a visual image of how large you think Miu Miu has made this clutch, and take a better look and learn more after the jump.

Shocking and overwhelming right? There is no way I could comfortably carry a foot and a half wide clutch in my hand.I may be 5'10, but my hands are delicate and small, and this would totally not work.The Miu Miu Oversized Suede Clutch sports a suede plum and red tie dye pattern with pleat detailing and has so much potential,www.louisvuittonreplicahandbags4s.com, but the size is downright obscene.Coming in at a truly oversized 18″ x 11″ x 2.5″, this clutch is as large as many handbags, but without the shoulder strap.The oversized clutch trend hopefully will not last too long, because it will be uncomfortable and hard to pull off.I dig this clutch, if it were about 1/3 the size.Via NAP for $950.
