Bottega Veneta does Canvas Flat Totes!

Bottega Veneta does Canvas Flat Totes
Bottega Veneta has got to be one of my favorite ultimate luxury designer brands.

I admire their discrete labeling on their accessories, as well as their chic, timeless and simple designs. I don’t own any Veneta pieces just yet, but if you ever get your hands on one of their infamous interwoven leather pieces, the feel and texture of its luscious leathers can induce your designer handbag crave.

Inge Christopher “St. Petersburg” Clutch

Inge Christopher "St. Petersburg" Clutch
I love going out at night and I must look as fashionable as I can when I do. I always have to match from head to toe, and my night wardrobe is usually all black. If there is one thing I hate, it’s having to carry one of my regular large bags when I go out for the night. The last thing I want to do is lug around a huge purse when I’m at a club or lounge. Evening bags or clutches always come in handy when you’re hitting up the town at night, and not to mention they always looks more stylish with an evening outfit.

Marc Jacobs Beaded Daisy Bag

 Marc Jacobs Handbags:  Marc Jacobs Beaded Daisy Bag
I’m such a fan of Mr. Marc Jacobs, but I hate to admit that this time around, he failed to impress.

With a name like the Beaded Daisy Shoulder Bag, it’s not as appealing as it sounds. I imagined some nice, complicated beading designs throughout a rich leather silhouette, but just take a look and you’ll see that it’s something totally different.

Pick your hobo: Foley + Corinna Cargo Bag vs. Indah Hayden Mini Hobo

 Pick your hobo: Foley + Corinna Cargo Bag vs. Indah Hayden Mini Hobo
If you check out the ‘What’s New’ handbag section over at Shopbop, you’re bound to see a couple of neutrals, some splashes of color and then these two crescent shaped hobos presented by two different parties.

We usually put handbags head-to-head when they resemble each other down to the bone, although these two don’t, we can gain some responses on which of the two would make your pick.

Foley + Corinna presents the navy blue, all pebbled leather hobo bag. It arrives oversized and with three bubbly pockets up front, you’re sure to keep organized and this bag extra neat. The single, thick leather shoulder strap looks as comfortable as it seems to carry this hobo, although its shape is unique indeed, I’m not too convinced that this would rank as a favorite in my collection.

Abas Abby Studded Crossbody Bag

Abas Abby Studded Crossbody Bag
I’ve never been a fan of crossbody bags. To me, no matter who the designer was they never looked stylish and they were way too small. I’m one of these girls that carries practically my whole dresser in my bag so a small bag never works for me.

When I purchased the MICHAEL Michael Kors Uptown Shoulder Tote, which can also be used as a crossbody bag, I realized I was wrong! Sometimes is does get annoying to constantly have a bag on your shoulder or carried in your hand. A crossbody works wonders when you don’t really feel like carrying a bag around, and now I love them. They really are the best accessory to have especially when you’re on a trip.

Foley + Corinna Asymmetrical Hobo

Foley + Corinna Asymmetrical Hobo
As the girls over at the Bag Forum will tell you, I love Foley + Corinna handbags. In fact, one of my favorite bags in my collection is my Foley + Corinna Mini City Bag in Fuchsia!

And the girls will tell you how heart-broken I was when I thought I had lost one of the tassels off of that bag (don’t worry, I managed to find it… on the floor of a store I had been shopping in earlier that day!). So you can probably imagine how excited I get whenever a new season of Foley + Corinna handbags hit the shelves!

Be & D Studded Garbo Tote

beandd handbags:  Be & D Studded Garbo Tote
My look has been pretty edgy lately and I’m definitely into the whole “Rocker Chick” trend. Be & D handbags not only compliment this trend well, but they are also stunning bags to look at!

The Be & D “Studded” Vertical Tote definitely has an edgy look to it with all the studs that are featured on the sides of the bag. What I like most about this handbag is that before the studs it was an everyday leather tote with no style to it. It amazes me how a bunch of studs can make a tote look that much more stylish.

Betsey Johnson Eye Spy Marilyn Monroe Tote

Betsey Johnson Eye Spy Marilyn Monroe Canvas Shopper
If you’re a Marilyn Monroe fan, then you just may love this Betsey Johnson “Eye Spy” Canvas Shopper.

The tote is simple but yet so classic. I’d like to believe anything that features Marilyn Monroe winking at you is labeled fabulous no matter how simple it maybe.

The tote comes in two different colors, black and lavender, and this seems to be a problem to me.
