Anya Hindmarch is reknowned for lady-like style and the new Fergus Stitched Leather Bag is refined, chic and so much more. When I see this bag, I think of Audrey Hepburn, Gwyneth Paltrow and Scarlett Johanssen all rolled into one. It’s sophisticated, exclusive and there’s just a bit of edge to keep things interesting!

This roomy black leather bowling bag features a stitching that creates a woven effect. The signature bow is stitched into the bag as well. The black on black design has a very rich and sophisticated effect, but also a bit edgy , ala a Matrix vibe. The gold-tone hardware adds the right touch of shine.

Lilac, plum, eggplant, mauve, orchid. Purple! I am seeing purple everywhere! When paired with monochromatic outfits, a bold splash of purple can really be worn with most colors. Black, Beige, White, Brown, Navy, Yellow, Red. Go simple or go bold! Everyone needs a great splash of color to go to every now and then. Why not make it purple?

Beginning with this spring’s Bottega Veneta collection featuring it’s delicious shade of orchid, purple has become a strong color with many major designers. The Bottega Veneta mini-woven shoulder bag is just one of the iconic brand’s styles you can find in orchid for $750. The Woven Leather Tote for $1980 an incredible daytime look that will definitely have you feeling like summer.

Anya Hindmarch’s handbags offer tailored sophistication with a bit of cuteness in her simple bow logos. Her purple offering at just $295 is an inexpensive option to get that luscious “pop” of violet to go with any outfit!

The Christian Louboutin Tinzita Shoulder Bag is a striking origami-influenced patent calf leather bag with tassle trim and the signature red lining. If you haven’t looked at these bags before, check them out on your next visit to their boutique or Saks. You will be impressed by the quality and detail. I especially love the little double-stiletto clasps! At $995, this bag will be an instant classic to punch up your evening looks.

In an ideal world, men would know exactly what women want. Just think, never again would you have to hint to your man that you would really like said handbag for your birthday. He would automatically know exactly which one you had been eye-balling for weeks, allowing him to totally surprise you! But what if men could read your mind in other ways? Like whether or not you are “available”? Well never fear all you single ladies out there because Anya Hindmarch has come out with a bag that will give men all the visual clues they need!

Introducing the Anya Hindmarch Available/Unavailable Canvas Tote! Ta-da… instant psychic powers! But you have to be careful here because you don’t want to bestow these powers onto any old Joe walking down the street. See, this is how I think this should work. Carry the bag around with the “unavailable” side facing out. Then, when you see a cutie that you would like to strike up a conversation with, simply flip the bag around to the “available” side and give him a wink.

Every time the topic about adding a new addition to my collection comes up, my darling BF questions why I must have another handbag if I already have many. Clearly, he doesn’t understand that each of my bags serves for special purposes. The Speedy for quick errands, the giant Work for school, the Damier Hampstead for shopping and the list goes on…

Heading towards the science building at my University today, I dreadfully watched a fellow student drop her notebook computer from her weak grip under her arm. Poor notebook… it must have been new too as there was absolutely no case protecting the gadget, or maybe she just never felt the need to invest in some cushion for it.

Having that in mind, I browsed Net-A-Porter to see what tech cases they currently have in stock for one of man’s most trustworthy portable devices. Surprisingly, only two choices are available at the moment that’ll be the Into the Wild Case presented by Marc by Marc Jacobs and the Taffeta Laptop Case by Anya Hindmarch.

Both have similar concepts yet very different designs. I adore the funky leopard prints and the raspberry color of the MbMJ twill case; it’ll make a fun case to add to your casual wardrobe and definitely some arm candy to wear on canvas.

If leopard and multicolor prints aren’t your style, settle for the luxe-tech Taffeta bag. This purple and patent trim features a gold signature interior, tassel pulls and an exterior pocket labeled “Bits and Bobs”; it’s simple, cute and definitely classy.

Both make great alternative to the boring black case you can practically find everywhere and can be purchased online through: NET-A-PORTER

The Chat: fendi chanel bag!

Just in: Anya Hindmarch “Christmas Totes” are here..

At first glance of the mailer that popped up in my box this morning, my favorite of the bunch is the Vixen! Of course everyone else must like that version as well, because I just wondered over the Anya Hindmarch site, and apparently that style sold out already. Temporarily I hope.

The Holiday 2009 editions range in price from about $98 for the simple canvas fruit and vegi Market Tote and on up to $265 for a full-print (in my opinion more of an) everyday style.

What do you guys think of the new seasonal edition?
