The petite and massively structured clutch has had its share among various designers. It must be a popular style if many have presented their own version of the squared clutch, just never really thought it came so handy with such minor dimensions. The latest adaptation of the structured clutch comes from Diane von Furstenberg. The Tonda clutch features a rectangular shape, wrapped around in fine leather, with a metal frame that gives it the extra stiff structure.

The statement trench coat. The statement check bag. Two items that are synonymous with the Burberry label. The Burberry Belted Hobo takes both of these items and wraps them up (literally) in one amazing bag.

When you’re looking for a pop of color, you can never go wrong with a red handbag. Not only are they eye catching, they are very versatile as well. Red goes with a surprisingly large variety of colors and actually is the perfect choice for a basic style upon which a wardrobe can be built. Even better is that red comes in a variety of shades and looks good on a number of fabrications, so there are choices out there to suit just about anyone’s taste. My favorite right now? Candy apply red that is so glossy and yummy looking that you almost want to eat it!

When I was in high school, Coach was the latest craze. Every girl had either the purses, accessories or even shoes. If you didn’t have something of Coach, you were considered “uncool”, so every girl was sure to have even the smallest thing by the brand. For me personally, I loved the small bags. I loved them so much that before I sold all of them I had almost 20! When you add that up money wise, it was insane! The things we do to fit in in high school is pretty bizarre.

As stated on their brand site, 3.1 Phillip Lim‘s focus is providing beautiful everyday classics with touches of madness resulting in cool, easy chic styles for both men and women. The Crossbody Camera bag is exactly that: cool and chic. However, I don’t see any madness to it at all!

A perfect little bag for the fashionable woman on the go. Luxurious supple lambskin is complemented by touches of simple gold hardware for maximum impact. And the color…wow! A beautiful rich sapphire shade that is just this side of royal purple. It’s the perfect color to compliment your Fall wardrobe.

I’ve never been a huge fan of Furla. They always struck me as a brand that appealed to an older audience. Being in my 20′s, I never saw any Furla bags that I wanted or desired. Even the outlet store in my hometown has never had anything amazing. I think my mind has just changed though after seeing the Furla “Amazonne Rocks” Satchel. This satchel is so beautiful that I’m now seeing the brand in a new light because this bad is trendy, stunning and stylish.

Being that I’m half English, my Father’s family is from London, I have a deep love for the country. I may not have been born there but I have great respect for the UK and it’s people. My Grandfather was born and raised in London and was one of the kindest people to ever live on this earth. No matter where you’re from or what culture your family derives from, you always have a great sense of appreciation and love for your heritage. At least I always have and will continue to do so till I leave this earth.

When I spotted the LeSportsac “JOYRICH” Union Jack Heart Cross Body Pouch, I literally screamed! The Union Flag has always been a symbol of pride for Brits and I bet any British woman that see’s this handbag is going to snatch it up. I’m not sure if I would ever actually purchase this bag to use, but I would love to hang it in my bedroom.

Emilio Pucci began his iconic line in 1947 when a photo of a snowsuit he had designed for a friend ended up on the pages of Harper’s Bazaar. Today, we associate bold psychadelic prints and more recently sleek shapes with geometric cutouts that grace the most beautiful bodies in the world.

Making a statement comes naturally to the brand and I see a major one with the Media Flap Bag. What could have become an ultra-conservative bag is transformed with exquisite detailing. A bold chain strap with leather shoulder pad, silver grommets and rings give this bag sophisticated edge. It’s not grunge rock, but elegance meets edge.
