Extra stiff and bringing in some serious bling is the Two-Textured Leather Satchel by Christian Dior. A feminine crescent shaped shoulder bag is produced with an assortment of pleated pebbled and crocodile textured leathers. You either love, hate or simply don’t mind the array of different leathers, but what stands out above all has got to be the numerous amount of studs and hardware found on this single piece. Over decorated with grommets and buckles, I can’t decide whether I find this piece to be tasteful or tacky. I’m the kind of Bagista that likes hardware and shine on my handbags, but designers do tend to go overboard every once in a while on décor, and unfortunately, I think this bulky satchel happens to be yet another victim of this abuse.

After multiple views and never ending grommet appliqué, I’ve decided this bag is a nay in my book. Somehow, the excessive décor tends to cheapen the value of this $2,950 couture satchel. Ladies what’s your input on this handbag, would you buy this?

Dior Homme Spring 2009 accessories have arrived and so far, I’m liking everything. They’re simple, sleek, and available for purchase via eLuxury (dot com).

First up is the bag for the man who isn’t afraid to carry the unusual; meet the Zip Top Shopper. I like how structured this shopper is and it’s obviously perfect for the man with many essentials. It’s a good size to carry books, a personal computer and more.

The Vertical Messenger Bag is a more common style and has a more casual look to it. It’s a bit low key, and the choice for the man who chooses to carry the standard style.

Don’t like the vertical look, how about the horizontal Asymmetrical Zip Messenger Bag. It’s unique, modern, and stylish. I’m digging the slanted pocket with zipper, the flat shoulder strap with push lock closure and all the other cool details found on this irregular bag.

The Patent Messenger Bag is perfect for the man who isn’t afraid of some shine. Crossover bands keeps this bag shut while it adds character to it as well.

Notice the circular detail found on these bags? They’re purposely made slits for your iPod cord to go through. Such a simple concept yet its neat and functional.

Ultra classic and stylish is the CDBee Cannage Deerskin Tote by no other than Christian Dior. Gosh, I say its about time The House of Dior presents to us Bagista’s something to awe over. I speak for myself when I state that for the past couple of seasons, Dior failed to impress me much with their handbag designs. Of course, I’ve always admired the designer name all together, but somehow, I felt like everything being released seemed just… great. So here is something quite simple, but definitely something I would wear. A large black tote with the infamous Cannage signature lining the bag at its sides. I love how its overall embroidered leather isn’t overdone or too busy. Minimal gold metal hardware including oversized grommets gives character to the tote, without blinging it out much. Dior doesn’t fail to add feet to prevent leather scuffs and of course, the fun dangling “DIOR” charms. Wonder why this tote carries the name CDBee? In case you can’t see it, an enameled Bee charm can be found dangling in the same place the DIOR letters are. What’s its purpose? I have no idea, but if you’re a fan of Bee’s, you’ll find this detail quite charming.

Diorita Contrast Twist Medium Tote
Take a look at Christian Dior’s latest design. I apologize to any Dior fans out there but for the past year or so, the French brand has failed to impress me much. Sure I would run into some nice pieces, such as their great collection of small leather goods… and shoes, but as for handbags, they were just ok. Here’s a big eye catcher by the House of Dior, meet the Diorita Contrast Twist Medium Tote. How bad must this hobo stand out compared to Dior’s more classic and sophisticated designs? The whole body texture of this piece is incredibly detailed with twists of smooth grained and metallic leather strips, as if this was weaved by hand, just like a straw basket would be. Flat arm handles, gold metal hardware, and a zip top closure can be found on this tote. If only this tote bag would go over the shoulder as it’s handles measure a hollow 8” drop. Awkward looking, incredibly uncomfortable, and too trendy leaves me with no wants for this Dior. Plus, the $2,795 price tag for this piece is way out of my limit and quite unreasonable. Ladies what’s your input on this bag, would you wear this?

Dior Cannage Drawstring Medium Bag
Everytime I come across a beautiful pink bag I must write about it, and this time the beautiful pink bag is by none other but Christian Dior. The bag is called the Dior Cannage Drawstring Medium Shoulder Bag and it’s stunning. I’ve never been one into drawstring handbags but this handbag is making my heart swoon, but I’m sure it’s just because it’s made in my favorite color ever. The handbag is made with quilted lambskin leather that has a tonal cannage pattern embroidery, and features aged metal hardware all over the handbag. I would consider this a plain bag, but when I saw it in pink I was drooling. If you do not love the Dior Cannage Drawstring Medium Shoulder Bag in pink, it also comes in beige, red and white. I will admit the shape of the bag is a little bit odd, but if you love drawstring style handbags you will love this bag. The inside of the Dior Cannage Drawstring Medium Shoulder Bag is quite handy giving that it has a cell phone, pouch and zipped pocket. Very cute handbag, but I’m not sure I would wear it much.

The Dior Cannage Drawstring Medium Shoulder Bag retails for $1,450 over at eLUXURY, but is now on sale for $1,015. It is a steep price but, considering that the handbag is made by Dior which is made in Italy, I’m not too surprised. It’s an adorable handbag and comes in different colors to fit your style. If you have the extra cash to spend, I would say it definitely is a stunning handbag to add to a collection.

Dior Leather Mosaic Tote
Normally, fall is a season filled with warm and fuzzy thoughts about colorful leaves and pumpkin-picking. But so far, this fall season has been nothing but rainy and gloomy. In fact, it has been raining where I live for the last 3 days… practically nonstop. Yep, it has definitely been a downer. So what can a girl do to cure her case of the fall blues? How about a REALLY brightly colored handbag to add some spring to your step? So whip out those sunglasses ladies and prepare to be dazzled. Introducing the Dior Leather Mosaic Tote. Now I’m not the kind of girl that typically goes for bags with beads on them, but that isn’t what made this bag catch my eye. Nope, it was that insanely bright shade of pink that did. This bag is so pink that it practically hurts your eyes just looking at it — hence the sunglasses. And even though this bag is not something I could ever see myself wearing, I do think it has the potential to add an extra pop of color to a brave woman’s look. Simply make sure the bag has the center stage by pairing it with a more subdued outfit. As for the beads, I suppose they sort of work for this bag in their own, quirky way. But I think a handbag in an eye-popping shade such as this one is best left unadorned. In other words, let the color speak for itself.

The Dior Leather Mosaic Tote measures 15.75″ x 11.75″ x 7.5″ and is available in Shocking Pink. The front is adorned with colored glass beads, creating the impression of a mosaic. It retails for a jaw-dropping $3,200 (Wow! Those beads better be gemstones, not glass!).

Top 5 Handbags Worn By Celebrities
Celebrities are known as the go to guides for fashion trends. They can be quite powerful when it comes to wearing something fashionable. One picture is taken of them wearing a certain handbag, and next thing you know the picture is everywhere. Once women around the globe see the snapshot of the newest “it” bag worn by celebrities, for some odd reason they feel the need to have the handbag too. Suddenly, the handbags are sold out of stores world wide, and are then seen on eBay with quite a bit of a price hike. Celebrities have the money to buy tons of handbags everyday if they want to, but when they wear a bag that is sold out everywhere you know the handbag is hot commodity. People can have their personal opinions or what handbags are hot and not. To me if numerous celebrities are seen with certain handbags, those handbags will be listed as “it” handbags. Once a handbag has the privilege of being an “it” handbag it can now have the title of being a top handbag worn by celebrities.

One handbag that is hated by a lot of bagista’s but seen on celebrities is the See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel. This handbag has been seen on numerous celebrities including Jessica Alba and Miley Cyrus. Miley Cyrus has been seen everywhere she goes with her blue See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel. The blue See by Chloé ‘Daytripper’ Satchel is suddenly sold out of stores. Concidence? I think not. I personally love this handbag, and have written a blog on it before. It didn’t get high reviews but believe it or not, in the celebrity world this handbag is a hot item.

Another handbag that has been seen on the celebrity scene is the YSL Pebbled Leather Easy Y Satchel. This handbag has been seen on Lindsay Lohan a lot lately, and I think no one can deny the beauty of this handbag. It’s obviously to see why a celebrity would want to carry around this gorgeous handbag. The YSL Pebbled Leather Easy Y Satchel is currently not sold out in stores, but I’m sure if more celebrities pick it up it will be soon.

The third handbag seen on celebrities lately is the Louis Vuitton Shimmer Comete handbag. Britney Spears has been seen carrying this handbag everywhere recently and I can’t blame her. She has made a lot of bad decisions in the past, but she scored major points when she decided to purchase the Louis Vuitton Shimmer Comete bag. This handbag is beautiful but comes with a big price tag as well as a waiting list. Britney Spears’ has been seen all over the internet with this handbag in her hand, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it sells out even quicker now.

It’s no surprise that the Christian Dior Karenina handbag is the fourth handbag that celebrities have been seen carrying lately. I personally do not like this handbag, but it’s obvious that Christian Aguilera, Denise Richards, and Sienna Miller do. This handbag is not my style, but I’m sure this handbag will be flying off the shelves due to it being a celebrity favorite.

The last handbag seen on celebrities lately, is the Salvatore Ferragamo Apollonia. I’m sure most bagista’s will think this handbag is hideous but I think it’s unique and beautiful. The colors, and patterns on the handbag are gorgeous! It’s not wonder why Reese Witherspoon has been seen carrying this handbag around. Love it, or Hate it, this handbag is a celebrity favorite.
