Ugly Friday | Valentino Handbag
So someone please explain to me why this ugly Valentino Tiger handbag retails for $4,015? I though that only the exceptional quality designer handbags reached this retail price range – gosh was I wrong. So I ask myself, what’s so special about this Valentino handbag. From what I see pictured here, absolutely nothing. Leopard print fur combined with embroidery on suede equals one hideously ugly Valentino handbag, not worth $4,000!

**I apologize if you own or designed this bag, please don’t sue me.

From time to time I come across a handbag that I find to be so unique, a little bit different but something about it just calls my name. While flipping through my Teen Vogue Mag I spotted this Marc by Marc Jacobs Chalk Stripe Denim Faridah Handbag. Immediately I feel in love with it (and the Chanel scarf and Louis Vuitton sunglasses)!

Marc Jacobs won me over with this one, creating this stylish bag that gives off an image of a train conductor’s uniform. The blue and white chalk stripes with two front flap pockets with buckle closures make this conductor-like bag perfect for that out-and-about casual day bag. This Faridah bag is accented with aged brass hardware and weathered leather trim that gives off the warn feel. Measurements of this super slouchy shape handbag are 14.5″ x 11″ (at sides, although bag is very slouchy) x 4.5″. You can discover this Chalk Stripe Denim Faridah via eluxury.

Attention Marc Jacobs fashion lovers- Remember for a limited time you get a free Marc by Marc Jacobs tote with a purchase of $200 at eluxury. So if you buy the adorable Marc by Marc Jacobs Denim Strip Faridah bag for $358, then you get the Marc by Marc by Marc Jacobs signature nylon tote (value $178) for free! This deal just screams . . buy me now, or you will regret it. Check it Out!

Emilio Pucci | Beach Tote
I love colorful beach totes. First designer that comes to mind when I think bright bold attention-grabbing colorful patterns is Emilio Pucci. It’s not surprising that Emilio Pucci is also known as the Prince of Prints. For this fabulous beach tote, the designers decided to go with combining hues of lavender, cornflower blue and teal. A gorgeous print that combines all of my favorite colors leaves me craving this bag to be apart of my beach bag collection.

This super chic tote is made with the well-known Pucci-print terry cloth exterior with a convenient removable washable white vinyl interior. This Emilio Pucci Large Beach Tote can be discovered at eluxury for $540. Measurements of this large beach bag are 21″ (top length) x 12 1/2″ x 4″ (at widest).

I thought I would never fall for a handbag with flower decorations, but it happened. While doing my daily purse browsing I discovered this Forzieri soft leather hobo in ultra chic white, embellished by contrasting multicolor leather handmade flowers. This is a simple bag that adds a fresh spring touch to any casual outfit.

Not only did I fall for the flower decorations as well as the lovely hobo shape, but also the price made me smile.
