Is it just me? Or were those mini cross-body bags the hot thing for Fall… 2009? Like most of you ladies out there, my local mall was jam-packed with displays of cross-body bags. But can we truly say that this particular style was “so Fall 2009″? After all, they are great for when you need your hands free. There’s nothing worse than trying to hang onto your bulky satchel when your hands are full of shopping bags from your latest rendezvous at the mall. But would they be appropriate for everyday use? Probably not. Especially if you typically carry a whole arsenal of makeup and other essentials around with you on a day to day basis. However, this isn’t to say that a cross-body bag wouldn’t come in handy from time to time. And if you use it for something in which they were originally intended (i.e., a camera bag), then it is probably worth your time to snap one up.

I always thought flowers belonged in a garden, but I guess I thought wrong. Flowers are pretty, but I don’t know how I feel about actually carrying one around as a clutch. The Sondra Roberts “Rose” Satin Box Clutch is unique looking, but at the same time it’s odd. I currently own a Swarovski Box Clutch, thanks to Bagbliss, and after owning such a gorgeous clutch it’s easy to pick apart other ones.

Everyone is familiar with the infamous Alexander Wang Coco Duffel! I mean, who could possibly forget a bag whose bottom is completely covered in studs? It certainly makes a great conversation piece!

Well, it just so happens that I recently stumbled upon an equally interesting bag (or, rather, clutch) from this designer.

Introducing the Alexander Wang Darla Pyramid Clutch! As the name implies, this clutch is shaped like a flattened out pyramid. This interesting piece features a zipper closure, however, I was expecting something a little more elaborate (i.e., a framed closure of some sort).

I currently own a Louis Vuitton and Juicy Couture makeup bag, but that doesn’t stop me from looking at more of them. I have this weird obsession with searching for small designer goods especially cosmetic bags on the internet. Designer’s tend to make the cutest makeup bags and I always want to buy them all. I don’t purchase any of them, but it’s always nice to just stare at them.

It’s no secret that I’m not a big “Miss Marc” fan, but I have to admit that I like her latest lace collection. I love lace, and thankfully it seems to be a trend these days. I think it was a brilliant idea for Marc Jacobs to not only get in on the lace trend, but to also have Miss Marc apart of it. Miss Marc is literally adorned in lace on the cosmetic bag, and I think it’s stunning!

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.

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.

Normally, I only carry large handbags that don’t give me a limit to what I can carry on a daily basis, but recently something small has caught my eye.

These new clutches presented by Diane von Furstenberg are indeed, très belle! Just take a look at how lady like and elegant these pieces appear to be.

The soft, lighter toned version with its oversized gunmetal hardware seems ideal for that holiday formal event, and seriously, how stunning is the color combination.
