fresh approach to bag design is a favorite of celebs and bag snobs alike. I’ve been a fan for years. The latest from the gorgeous young designer: A Fall 2012 look book filled with a mix of crocodile, natural cobra and viper snake.
Smokey greys and taupe-browns accentuate the exotic skins, croc and lizard. By letting the natural beauty of the material make a statement, the bags are simple yet elegant. The shapes are classic with a twist – like the sleek oversized clutch with a bit of zig zag detail. And note the...
. I mean, it’s been a love affair for years now. Something about the timeless style and beautifully crafted bags: I just can’t get enough. And each season, the bags are innovative and unique without going too crazy or overdone. The spring 2012 collection is no different. Just look at ...
This boxy messenger features leopard print ponyhair and red leather trim. Finished off with a thick strap and this bag is all good. Conceptually I even love the gold hardware sides. It gives it a defined, unique structure for a bag. But alas, perfection is not to be had. The hard shap...
the CFDA’s and eBay Fashion Vault’s inaugural You Can’t Fake Fashion event to combat counterfeit handbags, the response was overwhelming. eBay’s litany of designer-customized totes sold out in minutes, which raised lots of money for the CFDA Foundation. The fundraiser is now back for ...

On paper, a two-tone bag in two different textures of faux-leather might seem like a hot mess. But the Big Buddha Bondi , a white and blue number featuring both ostrich and reptile skin textures, is surprisingly more polished than it sounds. The choice of colors and the coordinating f...
normally favors feminine, bow-adorned designs, but the label’s Daisy Satchel veers from the traditional with its jubilant lemon color and dainty paisley print. There’s nothing like a little yellow to brighten up spring and summer, so why not wear it in a way that’s not quite so common...
Rare is the occasion when I find myself fantasizing about a crocheted handbag. My fantasies are more of the sumptuous, slouchy leather sort. Still, there’s room for variety – and in that case, I’m sure my crocheted daydreams would center on this Dolce and Gabbana Crocheted-Cotton Leat...
I’ve got a bone to pick with Michelle Smith. The Milly designer keeps churning out bags and dresses that I have to have. I’m loving the low-key elegance of the Jade Shoulder Bag , a simple yet eye-catching piece that recalls the ladylike chic of the 1950s. Since that’s right in line w...
As summer approaches, my biggest fantasy is to be one of those women who spends her days lounging by the pool in a fabulous sun hat, oversized shades and a flattering swimsuit. A pair of wedges and this Anthropologie Aperture de Fiore Bag would sit next to my chaise and a blended frui...

You've got to love Christian Louboutin's unique approach to fashion. They created an entirely new trend by adorning the previously unloved shoe sole with their bold signature red. And now, they're turning their attention to the shoulder strap, an area that hasn't had a lot of attentio...
showcased a celebration of country-western chic for her fall/winter 2012 show. The theme was seen at a handful of shows, but Marant’s was one of the most obviously southwestern displays of all. There were eyelets, heavy embroidery, leather, and cowboy boots galore. Thrown into the mix...
