Dooney & Bourke Domed Buckle Satchel

Dooney & Bourke has not impressed me very much over the last few years. However, I can’t help but be impressed by their Florentine Domed Buckle Satchel. Dooney & Bourke put a modern twist on the typical domed silhouette by incorporating side buckles that work to add more shape in just the right places. The [...]

Prada Made in China

Last time I wrote a post about Louis Vuitton being made in other places other than France. Now, I have stumbled upon the fact that Prada has also been outsourcing their handbag manufacturing. I personally do not own too much Prada merchandise, but I admire their unique styles. Not being a huge fan of Prada, [...]

Marc Jacobs for Christmas

Dear Mr. Claus, In addition to the lovely Audi S5 on my Christmas wish list, I promise to be good for another week after Christmas if you could throw this roomy construction of a duffle bag (Marc New York “Vintage Leather Weekend Duffel Bag”) into your red velour bag. It has an attention – getter [...]

YSL’s “Cabas Chyc”

I was looking through Yves Saint Laurent’s new handbags the other day and I noticed that they have a few good offerings. One in particular caught my attention and that is the YSL Cabas Chyc handbag. I, personally, enjoy the medium size versus the large as certain large handbags have the tendency of overwhelming a [...]

Rebecca Minkoff “Knuckles” for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Scratch that. I recently went holiday shopping for my friends and family yesterday… let me just say that the rush of people stampeding over each other, via car or feet, was overwhelming. The women in needle thin heels are worse than the hooves of any stampeding animal [...]

Gucci or LV… Which Side Are You On?

Gucci versus Louis Vuitton: and so the endless debate begins. I recently got the Louis Vuitton belt but it wasn’t easy deciding between the two. Even though some people might think differently, here are my two cents. Louis Vuitton Pros & Cons: The Louis Vuitton belt is very subtle looking and the buckle sits nice [...]

Here we have a Santa handbag made completely out of paper. This was made by a mother who made these handbags for her daughter’s first grade companions. To make these cute handbags, the only supplies she used were paper and scissors. Included with the handbag were candy canes, chocolate bars, Hershey kisses, and plenty of [...]
