Retro Picture of Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey in Rome
No wedding or engagement ring for Jenny McCarthy, but she got a Chloe Paddington Padlock Satchel handbag instead.
During a recent interview with Access Hollywood, Jim Carrey went on to say “No, we’re never getting married, but we’re never getting divorced, which is fantastic,”
Will he get her a ring at least? “I bought her a Chloe purse,” he jokes. “Isn’t that good enough?” Carrey and McCarthy, 34, went public with their romance last year. “She’s just a wonderful lady and much deeper than she’s ever received credit for, and I’m very excited about her future.”

Fendi Crossword Patent Clutch
I use to suffer from Photoshop Nightmares. I’m not joking. You know you have spent way too much time playing around in Photoshop when you are dreaming about images uncontrollably being cropped and moved / layers and color adjustments flashing, etc. Uhg, I would wake up multiple times throughout the night feeling nauseous and dizzy. . . like I just come off a rollercoaster or something. I thought the dreams were over since they have long been absent, but then I discovered this dreadful newbie and they started all over again.
As you can see above, the bag is collaged together with panels of patent leather that are adorned with the oversized coated mirror-like leather Fendi letters. The bag is just plain ugly in my opinion. If the bag was solid black (or white) with just the polished silver tone metal handles then maybe, just maybe I would give it a chance. But still the $920 price tag makes me say “uhm pass”
I spotted this Fendi Crossword Patent Clutch a couple days ago and lately (last night) I had a few Photoshop Dreams where I was creating this bag over and over again only replacing the oversized Fendi Signature letters with the Bag Bliss Signature . . .
Bag Bliss Crossword Patent Clutch
Lookie what I made, it’s the e5 Bag Bliss designer clutch. The e5 bag is inspired off of the Fendi Crossword Patent Clutch – if you couldn’t tell.
Something tells me it will be a smash!

Dolce and Gabbana Large Buckle Basket Weave Canvas Tote
No matter how hard they try, the Dolce and Gabbana oversized buckle will in no way reach the “it” status as well as the Fendi B Bags.
The bag is lovely, don’t get me wrong and the $690 price tag is pretty reasonable, but it’s DG. Do any of their bags ever achieve obsession status from the fashion community?

Marc by Marc Jacobs Party Girl Clutch
This clutch is for the party girl who has traded in the beer bong and jello shot extravaganzas for a nice evening out with the buds. Whether its lounge or bar hopping with friends or spending an evening out with the boy, this is the clutch that will accent you perfectly.
The Marc by Marc Jacobs Party Girl bag with its plump soft velvet body is crowned with a tiara of tonal ribbon trim laced through golden logo-embossed signature Marc Jacobs (zipper) pull tabs. The bag is only available (online) in the colors (lovely) vino burgundy or (not so lovely) brown velvet. Price: $328
TGIS! And the Party Girl screams “are you Down2Night?”
(memo from danlee aka the boy) Down2Night allows users to subscribe to a SMS text message service to notify them of events/specials at their favorite bars, clubs, restaurants. Establishments can upload their calendar of events, music performances, promotions, food specials, happy hours, etc. In the early evening of each day of the week the user selects, one SMS text message is sent to their phone listing the events, music, and promotions for that night from their selected establishments.
Yes you may have noticed that currently at this moment D2N is only available in the Seattle area, however with a click of a button you can nominate your city. Go check it out and when you find out what’s Down2Night in your area don’t forget to bring along your Marc by Marc Jacobs Party Girl Clutch. And if you have a totally crazy night, don’t forget about the Morning After Bag (by Rebecca Minkoff).

Purse Deal: Donna Karan The Gansevoort
Somebody has to like this bag! (right?) Come on guys, eluxury is begging you. . take this bag off their hands, lol. I don’t know if you guys browse the virtual sale racks over at eluxury very often, but I do on occasion stop by every now and then to spot some sweet deals and today while doing my browsing I couldn’t help but notice that this Donna Karan Gansevoort Tote along with the Iconic Evening (sale for $199), The D (sale for $493), and The Bryant (sale for $425) are still hanging out in the sale section. Still there. These bags have been there for the longest time. I mean at the least no less than a year. I’m surprised these bags aren’t free by now.
