These collection from Givenchy had me going “Wow!” because they truly are, well…wow-worthy. The handbags come with a structured and clean design, which makes the bag look even sophisticated. And I like that this collection comes in many designs, which gives one plenty to choose from.

I especially like the one in white with black handles. It looks absolutely chic. Inside, the bag offers much room and space for nearly everything you want to put in the bag.

This handbag is looking a lot like Tod’s D-bag, which I’ve been lemming for this year.

You can buy this one at Barneys’s.

Hi darlings,

Happy New Year!

So, have you decided which bag will kick off your 2012 bag journey, yet? I may need some help.

Hi darlings,

Happy New Year!

So, have you decided which bag will kick off your 2012 bag journey, yet? I may need some help.

Remember when I was looking for a bag to tote all of Baby #1′s stuff to Bris? Back then it was between the LV Neverfull and the St. Louis Goyard. As you know, the Goyard is not available locally and because I was in a hurry back then, I ended up with the Neverfull which proved true to its name but became the LV bag that EVERYBODY has. T_T.

I love my Neverfull (so does everybody else, by the looks of it). But if you’re looking for a pop of colour in a bag that is the exact same shape and size as a Neverfull, the answer is the St. Louis Goyard. And guess what? It is available in a gorgeous bright orange from here and it comes with a matching pochette! I would so get it if I could sell my Neverfull. But being a true Leo, I just had to have the NF stamped with my initials, didn’t I? Take a lesson girls – only personalise bags that you know you’ll want to keep forever. (Anybody out there with the initials MZ wanna buy a barely used LV NF? :p)

Theuglycloset.blogspot.com has this up for sale too. I’m not big on LV but the shape of this bag has got me pining for it. It’s just too cute. Kind of like the speedy but with longer handles, perfect as a shoulder bag (which leaves hands free to juggle a baby and help a pre-schooler with his shoes).

~pic borrowed from theuglycloset.blogspot.com~

~pic taken from purseforum.com~

This is the LV Rivington PM, sister to the Cabas Rivington which is a tote with similar handles.
Should I start 2012 with these two? Or will you guys beat me to it?

xoxo,
Emm

Bags :Three Gorgeous Bags With Fur

admin — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 03:38:25 +0000

I have little love for fur or even faux fur. It’s the kind of fashion I don’t really know how to carry but since fashion is something that can be developed, I’m willing to try out wearing something with faux fur for the season, when it’s one of the trendiest.

I have little love for fur or even faux fur. It’s the kind of fashion I don’t really know how to carry but since fashion is something that can be developed, I’m willing to try out wearing something with faux fur for the season, when it’s one of the trendiest. It isn’t easy to rock, but I guess I could start off with handbags lined with faux fur. Some of my choices for this are the ones below:

This fur satchel from Kenneth Cole is structured but hardly boring. It’s looks basic but comes with a twist. The combination of faux fur and leather makes this handbag more interesting. The handbag is also totally useful as it is filled with multi pockets and compartments inside. This keeps one stylish and organized.

leather and faux fur bag
front flap with turn-lock closure
top handle with 3″ drop
detachable shoulder strap
front-wall split-patch cell pocket
back-wall zip pocket
Kenneth Cole logo jacquard lining
13″ wide, 10″ high, 3″ deep
imported

Availabe at Kenneth Cole.

I instantly love the style of this Mohair Garden tote from Prada. This piece has soft faux fur in light color, which I think looks clean and simple. The handbag also comes with a heritage tag.

Double top handles, 6½” drop
Top snap closure
Two inside zip pockets
One inside open pocket
Signature jacquard lining
18″W X 10″H X 10″D
Made in Italy

Available at Sak’s Fifth Avenue.

This Forzieri wicker handbag with faux fur I think looks fun but classy at the same time. It would be perfect for daytime wear. Inside, the handbag comes with zip pockets. It’s closure is only a cord, though. It’s cute, but I think I’d like if it were more secure.

Bags Info :So close yet so far

I have a brother who flies planes. He flies planes to places where bags are cheap.

Again, I repeat, he flies planes to places where BAGS ARE CHEAP!

No, my brother isn’t blonde. Hanya gambar hiasan :p
So, it begs the question of why I have yet to capitalise on

No, my brother isn’t blonde. Hanya gambar hiasan :p
So, it begs the question of why I have yet to capitalise on this fact and grab as many bags as I possibly can at a fraction of the price that I’d have to pay in KL, or Brisbane, for that matter. Well, because my brother… the one who started flying planes to foreign lands even before he was old enough to apply for his own credit card is not unlike Forrest Gump when it comes to shopping.

Case in point #1.
I was in confinement and not allowed out of the house. Therefore, just as he was leaving to go out on a date, I told him to come home with a couple boxes of Milo Kotak (does anybody else notice that Milo that comes in the juicebox tastes utterly more delicious than the ones in the can?). An hour or so later, he calls to say that they’ve run out of Milo Kotak. To which I tell him to get me the ones in the can. He comes home soon after with my Milo. In a can. POWDERED MILO. IN A CAN!

Case in point #2.
When he started flying the 747s, of course my Mum and I got excited at the prospect of bags available for our pickings. So Mum decided she needed a Large Longchamp Le Pliage to stash in her travel bag for excessive shopping trips (I have unofficially categorised the Le Pliages as ‘need’ bags and not ‘want’ bags because of how useful, durable and practical they are). Bro comes home from London to announce to Mum that he did not get her the Le Pliage as they were all so tiny that she couldn’t have possibly want one as it would not fit much. My darling bro did not realise that all Le Pliages sold in shops were on display in their folded form!!! (you about ready to pull your hair out now?!)

Tiny bags all in a row!
I suppose the only possible way I can score a bag is to provide him with all the details necessary plus pics (from every angle) together with a letter addressed to the salesperson. Even then, we can only hope. *sigh*

Selamat Hari Raya,

Bags Info :Trend Alert: Snakeskin Handbags

admin — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 03:38:24 +0000

This fall, jazzing up your wardrobe would be so easy when you accessorize with a snakeskin handbag. Most preferrably the faux kind, snakeskin handbags are classic go-to pieces these days and they can quickly turn an average-looking outfit into something more stylish and fashionable.

This fall, jazzing up your wardrobe would be so easy when you accessorize with a snakeskin handbag. Most preferrably the faux kind, snakeskin handbags are classic go-to pieces these days and they can quickly turn an average-looking outfit into something more stylish and fashionable.

Here are three different bags, from high-end to low-end, featuring the trendy snakeskin style:

Red, sexy and fiery, this bag is called the One-of-a-Kind Snakeskin Satchel from Valentino and it truly lives up to its name. The bag comes in glossy red snakeskin material and is accented by golden hardware. It comes with two double straps and a unique top handle.

Neiman Marcus is selling this for 85.

This gorgeous classic is YSL’s Top Handle Fabric bag. This piece is chic and classy. I like how the bag is designed so that you can carry and use it so effortlessly. And the thing about this bag is that it’s not exactly made from actual snakeskin. This is a fabric bag woven together to appear like it has that snakeskin texture. And I think that it’s a pretty great idea, considering no animal had to die to be able to become this bag.

This piece is priced at 95 at YSL.

I really love how simple but elegant this clutch’s design is. I also love that it’s only .90! The snakeskin leather is faux, of course. But the bag looks really smashing and first-rate.

Bags :3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli Satchel

A fashion magazine has called on the Celine Luggage Tote as the newest IT bag, taking over Proenze Schouler’s PS1 reign.

That bag has a particularl feature that appeals to me. It’s chic and structured, but the side flaps give it extra…wing, so to speak.

And it looks like designers are getting the drift and coming up with their own interpretation of the style for I found this Pashli Satchel from Phillip Lim a bit similar to that IT bag.

This is part of the designer’s Fall/Winter 2011 collection and it is such a gorgeous one. It’s kind of a work bag and can fit your laptops fine (measures 42cm by 29cm). You can also put a few folders in there. It’s decent and fashionable, even in the boardroom.

But I also like that you can bring it with you when shopping or going on coffee date with friends.

The bag comes in basic black and taupe colors — perfect for just about any outfit. It’s available at Net-A-Porter for 5. Not bad at all!

Deviating away from all those other handbags that have the buckles on it, like the Proenza Schouler or the Cambridge Satchel, this YSL model is actually a good alternative.

This handbag comes in a compact size, with a clear and simple style. It is done in Ivory, which I think looks really slick, because the handbag also comes in another color (Tan). Here, the Y golden hardware really stood out, but isn’t overpowering its overall look.

I find that this YSL Chyc shoulder bag is fitting for the office, but it may also be carried around during a warm afternoon stroll or a trip to the mall.

Inside, the handbag has a few missing components, like the pockets and leather lining. If you’re into bags with extra compartments from the inside, then this could be an issue for you.

Style-wise, it’s close to perfection!

I’ve always professed my love for anything Kate Spade does for their handbag line. Their collections can be both whimsical and classic and I find that their handbags offer a lot of style and sensibility.

I don’t particularly have any use for clutches, as I find them small and I’d prefer totes or satchels for its space and ease of use. But seeing this Recital Farrah Clutch had me wanting for this clutch, never mind if I don’t even know how much useful (or useless!) this would be for me.

But….ain’t this baby pretty??

I love the idea of using piano keyboards as its main design. This is especially appealing to someone who loves the instrument, but anyone who knows style will no doubt give this handbag a second look.

That in comes in black and white makes it an instant classic. Sophisticated and elegant, it can be matched with most most wardrobes. But I also love that it can be whimsy, thus it matches even when one is carrying this with a pair of denims.

The size of it is the right size to pull off THE look. It looks exactly like piano keyboards, down to the length and height. I’d imagine if this was designed as a tote handbag or something bigger, I know it would not look half as gorgeous as this.

The Recital Farrah is at 5 at Kate Spade.

Bags :Everyone’s Loving Elly Clay New York Handbags

What is not there to love about an Elly Clay handbag? Just take a look at some of what she has to offer. These are some of the edgiest and trendiest designs I’ve seen from handbags and they look absolutely great!

This is called the Billy Jean Clutch, which is a cross between rocker chic and urban chic. The handbag comes with a fold over design and the flaps are zippered down with a few tassels. It looks totally cool and radical. The style is a stand-out and looks even better with all the choices of prints and colors or it.

This clutch is oversized, thus making it more utilitarian than regular clutches. It also comes with a strap, so that it can be worn as a shoulder bag.

For 0, this handbag is worth the price!

Elly Clay’s textured satchel in bright, almost turquoise blue, is probably my favorite in her collection. This also comes in fuchsia, black and pewter but I really love the blue best. I especially love the size, it’s the kind I need from the bag.

This satchel is designed in glazed calf leather and embossed python. The surface is textured and oh, so gorgeous! Brass hardware complete its style.

Lastly, this is Elly Clay’s Boyfriend Hobo and its the edgiest from this selection. The handbag has an unusual strap, which sets it apart. I’m not so thrilled about the studs but I can live with it. The handbag is made of elephant grain calf leather and it’s really spacious inside.

Elly Clay is designed by Crystal Haylett, who is based in New York. As a new player in the handbag scene, her designs have really become much sought after by celebrities and socialites. The handbags make use of a lot of hardware and fringes, as you have seen and the best way to describe Elly Clay’s style is that is truly fashion forward.

Shop for Elly Clay at their website.
