Luella Bartley | Spring 2007 Runway Handbag Collection
Alright Bagista’s and Bagister’s, we have our first set of designer bags from the spring 2007 Runway, which I have been obsessively waiting for. Sadly though I am not that impressed after viewing Luella’s new collection. Here are a few bags from her collection. Later on today I will post more images in the bag forum, so if you want to view more of this collection and others, feel free to stop in.

I can’t stand the sight of disco balls. The rest of this bag looks okay at other views, however if I had this bag I would have to clip off that disco ball.

Luella Bartley | Spring 2007 Handbag Collection
Luella’s black and white alphabet bags are definitely an eye-catcher but I wouldn’t waste my money on this bag. I have no idea what the retail is, but to me it looks like it belongs in Target (remembering Luella’s Go International at Target Bags).

The floral prints. Ehh I have never been one to decorate my wardrobe for floral prints.

Luella | Gisele Handbag | On Sale $599.89 | View!
Long ago the Luella Gisele was once the hottest “It Bag” of the season. It was first introduced in later months of 2003, but was not instantly crowned with the “It Bag” status until months later when we saw it on the arms of almost all fashionable starlets and celebrities. Wonder what’s in the name? Young designer Luella Bartley named the Luella Gisele bag after the Brazilian beauty supermodel Gisele Bundchen.

Even though this bag dropped it’s “It Bag” Status, it’s still one bag that is admired by all ages. See below, Jennifer Aniston and Mischa Barton are still toting theirs.

On the left is a snapshot of Jennifer Aniston in the movie Derailed. Bag of choice is the Luella Gisele.

Celebrities and Their Handbags
Celebrity | Victoria Beckham | Luella Striped Stevie Tote
Victoria Beckham (pre-hair chopped off) with the fabulous Luella Stevie Striped Tote (and wearing an Abercrombie tank). I had this celebrity picture in my archive for the longest time just never posted it because I couldn’t locate this bag. Well here it is, the Luella Striped Stevie, on sale too!

* * * *Update: Unbelievable! Once again I find a hot designer bag deal and it sells out within 10 minutes after posting. I am starting to feel like the woot.com for handbags! Searching. . . not the same bag, but here is the Luella Stevie Leather Tote in solid chocolate brown leather via net-a-porter. Sorry, it’s not on sale.

Luck on eBay: Luella east /west Stevie shoulder bag in color Chino, a leather Luella Gisele handbag in the color camel, Luella Bartley Baby Gisele handbag in the color white, and finally a deep dark green Luella Gisele handbag.

Designer Handbag Deal of the Day
Luella | Joni Bag | On Sale $498 (orig. $995) | View!
Have you ever wondered where a designer gets the idea of how to name a handbag line? For this Joni bag Luella decided to pay tribute to singer Joni Mitchell and designed this beautiful red textured lambskin studded bag. Oh and this bag is also available in Black python, but you have to search around for it, I couldn’t locate one online.
