Even in this troubled economy and the resort city struggles in the recession, Chanel has opened a third boutique in Las Vegas.
The French fashion house recently opened their doors to the 2,400 square foot boutique at the Encore at Wynn Las Vegas resort.
The boutique carries fine jewelry and fashion apparel. Also available at this boutique are one-of-a-kind diamond pieces, including the “Pluie de Diamant” necklace, which has a 10-carat, pear-shaped center diamond.
Besides all the beautiful neon colors being a trend for this Spring 2009 handbag season, it seems like gorgeous shades of blue are also coming to be quite popular. My absolute favorite “blue” handbag for the upcoming Spring season is the Rebecca Minkoff Nikki in Cobalt, but I’m also loving the Prada Vitello Daino Tote. Metallic leather is usually not my cup of tea, but I must say the blue metallic on the Prada Vitello Daino Tote is stunning! Some features of the handbag are: it has double shoulder straps; a snap closure; two inner zip pockets; metal feet; and the not surprising, it is made in Italy. The Prada Vitello Daino tote also has snaps on the side to make the purse a little bit more roomier if you need to. Not that the handbag isn’t already roomy enough, with its height of 12 inches and width of 16 inches. Everything physically possible about this handbag is beautiful but the price, that is a whole different story.
Prada is known for their high end, luxury handbags that come with a high price tag. The Prada Vitello Daino Tote is currently available at Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,760. Shocked? I was too. For a simple, but yet beautiful handbag I think Prada went a little too high on the price tag. As I say often, beautiful handbag, not so beautiful price!

One new purse trend that you may have noticed in the spring 2009 Jimmy Choo handbag collection is “The Tassel”. In previous years I have ignored bags with such detailing, but in recent time I find myself craving.
Meet the Jimmy Choo Chad Tassel: A fresh face over at amazing online shop net-a-porter.
The Chad Tassel is the dressed in a gorgeous almond-cream satin fabric and accessorized with complementary gold hardware, which is perfect for any spring/summer occasion. The fringe tassel is not only a totally rock-chic detail, but it doubles as a wristlet. Other visual details include the pleat detail along the top, a gold tone encasing on the wristlet, a gold tone zip fastening along the top and a designer embossed plaque on the inside. Measurements: 4″ Length x 2″ Depth x 8″ Width. Price: $995
Cobalt. As mentioned by fellow blogger brs, it’s the blue to go for this spring as it seems like every brand right now is flaunting their version. For the past couple of seasons or so, something really different is going on over at Coach Headquarters… and I love it! Their changes are great and they can clearly be seen among their collections. One of the brands latest is the Penelope line. With its surprising colors and new silhouettes; Coach is really brings “new” to the table. I’ll admit that I’ve been cautious of some of Coach’s logoed stuff, but I never feared their leather goods, and the Penelope Leather Shopper leaves no exceptions. Who knew pebbled and patent leather could look so good together? Coach seemed to pull it off as the combination is pleasant rather than busy. My favorites things about this shopper: the choice of hues, the minimal silver hardware, and the pretty feminine ruffles found decoring its upper body. If only this shopper lost the handle studs and the leaf-shaped zipper pull, then I would adore this piece even more! Measuring in at 13” x 8” x 4” you can find this newbie carrying a very reasonable price tag of $348.

I’m usually not crazy about the Juicy Couture daydreamer handbags but I am drooling over the new daydreamer bag. The Juicy Couture Daydreamer Heart Medallion Bag is absolutely gorgeous and I must say I want it! I think the major pro about this newly daydreamer bag is that a majority of it is not made of terry cloth. To me terry cloth can get dirty very easily, and that’s why I never really paid much attention to the daydreamer handbags before. Some of the handbag does feature a few parts that have terry cloth but a good portion of the handbag is made of acetate rayon. Acetate rayon is still pretty high maintenance like the terry cloth but I feel is also gives the day dreamer a different feel and look. Some really cute features of the Juicy Couture Daydreamer Heart Medallion Bag is that it has logo charms dangling from the front of the bag that reads “For nice girls who like stuff” and it even has an exterior ID window. All in all, the Juicy Couture Daydreamer Heart Medallion Bag is a very cute bag for the upcoming 2009 spring season.
The Juicy Couture Daydreamer Heart Medallion Bag is currently available at Nordstrom for $228. Great price, for an absolutely adorable handbag!
