Zac Posen Handbags & Purses

Browse recent Zac Posen bags below:

Unless it’s a giant tote bag, I usually stay clear from the shoulder bag section. A normal sized bag never really does much for my obsession of carrying my house and more everywhere I go.

Looking extra attractive is the Carine Lock bag by Zac Posen, a cute bag that I ran into at my local Saks today. It’s such an adorable piece, starting with the pretty fuchsia hue. I admire rich leather sporting bold color, and this bag has it. Up close or in person you would see how distressed and glazed the leather really is on this bag. The next eye catching detail is the gunmetal gem found right up front, it’s actually just a squared décor but from a distance, it looks jewel like. The lock detail up front doubles as a magnetic snap closure, which always serves for quick access to your essentials. A 10” single shoulder strap, divided interior, and patch pockets are also found on the Carine. Measuring in at 11” x 15” x 4” this isn’t exactly small, as it would make a great night out or party shoulder bag.

For a hefty price tag of $1,450 you can pick up this Posen via: shopbop

Zac Posen Trillium Pleated Bow Tote
If you dislike pleats, bows, chains, and the color purple… then this bag is definitely not for you. Personally, I like all of the details listed above, but I don’t know how I feel about finding all those features on one single bag. A perfect example of this would be the Trillium Pleated Bow Tote by Zac Posen. What do you think gals? Personally, I like the body of the bag. I like how this Posen is composed of structured Nappa leather and how it’s slender in width. Although those pinched-pleats wouldn’t be my pleats of choice… window blinds anybody? I don’t know how I feel over the chained shoulder strap either, it reminds me too much of the railing to a rollercoaster ride. I find the worst part about the strap is the fact that it’s permanently attached to the bag, that’s right… it’s not removable. I could just imagine how horrid this bag would look worn on the crook of the arm. Imagine the dangling 16.5” chain drop! The only removable piece to this bag is the monogrammed leather tag, which I don’t care too much for. I say this tote, minus the chain, would have looked much better!

Zac Posen Lil Zac Handbag
Nothing is more classic than a simple shape, like the crescent hobo. The clean lines, the elegant curves, the simple hardware. Yeah, its plain. But in my opinion, its plain in a good way. This bag doesn’t look too dressy or too casual. What does that mean? Well, that means that it can go both ways: dressy or casual. It just depends on what clothes you pair it with!

The Lil Zac Handbag seems to be an excellent example of a split-personality bag. Its so simple and classy. But if you happen to get it in the Canary Yellow, it can be really fun as well! I think the color gives the simple design of the bag just enough of a pop to give interest to any outfit. Mmmm… just imagine it with white trousers and a floaty black top. Or you could pair it with a casual yellow skirt and tee! Plus that rolled handle looks incredibly comfortable, doesn’t it? I am such a stickler for comfortable shoulder straps! One of my favorite bags is actually a Marc by Marc Jacobs bag with the most awesome strap I have ever worn!

The Zac Posen Lil Zac Handbag:
- Soft, pebbled leather
- Zip Closure
- Rolled Handle with an 8″ drop
- Measures 9″ x 12″ x 6.5″
- Retails for $1,195

Zac Posen Handbags
Zac Posen is the prince of haute couture evening gowns. His gowns are made with the perfect material, detail, style, and precision. Zac Posen now also has a handbag line. Do you think his handbag line can live up to the expectations that we have of his evening gowns?

This first bag is the Zac Posen Attache Fifth Avenue Tote. This bag definitely screams Fifth Avenue. It is sleek and elegant in the black and white leather and croc and goldtone hardware. This bag is sophisticated, timeless, and chic. It is probably my favorite handbag from the most recent line. It retails at $1,800.00.

The second bag is the Zac Posen Pumpkin Drawstring Hobo. This bag consists of richly woven leather and soft pebbled leather side panels and tassel detail. This bag is roomy and stylish and is the perfect everyday bag. This bag retails at $1,995.00.

The third bag is the Zac Posen Bo Mixed Leather Bag. This bright yellow bag features a mix of pebbled, patent, and smooth leather. This bag is very versatile because it is so structured an basic while still so funky and stylish in this bright mustard yellow. This bag can now be found on sale for $836.50.

Zac Posen Madison Bag
I never really paid much attention to Zac Posen handbags in the past. They never called to me saying “Look at what a delicious bag I am! Buy me! Take me home!” Nope, not once have I been drawn to a Zac Posen handbag.

So what makes this Madison Bag different? Well, nothing really. But I was browsing around over at Shop Bop today and noticed that they have a section labeled “Designer Boutique”. I guess I never really noticed it before. But then again, I’m typically just there to look at Marc By Marc Jacobs and Rebecca Minkoff handbags.

So anyway, I decided to check out the “Designer Boutique” section there at Shop Bop. And what do you know? They have Zac Posen handbags there. This particular one, called the Madison Bag, caught my eye for one reason only. Yep, this bag kind of reminds me of a Chanel Classic Flap! LOL! However, I’m not really sure whether that is a good thing or a bad thing. I mean, why would Zac Posen want to come out with a bag that is so similar (shape and style wise) to such a huge fashion icon? Okay, so it doesn’t look exactly like a Chanel bag… but it is similar in size and shape. Plus it has a flap and a double chain strap.

Interestingly though, the Madison Bag does have some of its own unique features. For example, the bag opens up like an accordion-style portfolio. It also has a lock closure complete with its own little key. Those features are pretty cool. But I’m not really digging the embossed pattern. Why couldn’t they have just done a plain exterior? It would have looked so much more sophisticated!

The Zac Posen Madison Bag features:
Double chain strap with a 10 inch drop
Accordion sides
Interior zip pocket
Key bell
Measures 6.5″ x 10.5″ x 2
Retails for $1,200

You can find this and other Zac Posen bags over at Shop Bop. Check them out here: shopbop.com

Zac Posen Rose Clutch
Head on over to the Zac Posen section over at eLuxury (dot com), they just got in some new items. While I was browsing the Posen newbie’s, I noticed this clutch. Where shall I begin? First of all, I want to address the fact that the name of this piece doesn’t match the clutches features at all. This Posen piece is named the Rose Clutch. Hmm… an accessory with a name like ‘Rose Clutch’ should appear a bit more feminine, don’t you all think? I don’t know how you bagistas feel about this accessory, but personally, this particular piece reminds me of a Transformer of some sort. It must be all those geometric shape features and its sharp edgings; and the new “Z�? logo (found right in the middle of the bag) isn’t so appealing to me, either. Although I feel that this bag is a bit too complex for my taste, I can name a couple of great features found on this Posen, too. Zac Posen dresses many of its bags in great leather, and this clutches grained nappa leather seems incredibly smooth. I admire its grey suede lining as well, and the clutches flat base is also a plus in my book! The ‘Rose Clutch’ definitely sports a distinctive but cool design. So, what do you ladies think? Would you carry this clutch?

Huge Designer Handbag Sale @ Saks! Hurry!
Quickly, rush on over to Saks Fifth Avenue’s online store and see if there is anything that you like in the “Special Preview�? Area. Today is the last day to get 30-40% a selection of designer fashion items. That’s right, not only handbags, but shoes, tops, bottoms, accessories, jewelry and more. Incredible prices. Most of these items if you look anywhere else on the web are still priced to the fullest.

Here are a couple of the designer handbag gems that stood out in the crowd…

Designer Handbag Sale: Juicy Couture Velour Daydreamer Tote
Since the Juicy Couture change over I rarely mention bags by this fashion brand Juicy Couture. I just haven’t been a fan of the new styles, or the way they change up the popular daydreamer tote every season. My main complaint was the font change. I know that’s such a minimal complaint, but when the gigantic font is the main focal point of the bag, you kind of notice.

Anyway for a newer style, I actually like this “Love for Couture�? Juicy Couture Tote (minus the gold chain). The bag is dressed in the signature velour fabric and features the “Juicy Couture Generation�? embroidery and a golden “Love for Couture” chain ornament that dangles from a faux gemstone on the front. This bag also features brass hardware, and inside tab with hidden magnetic snap closure, double top handles, one side open pocket, and a logo print canvas lining with one zip and two open pockets. Measurements of this tote are 13″ width x 10.5″ height x 7″ depth.

This Dolce and Gabbana gold bar is the perfect accessory addition to add to your eveningwear.

The purse comes dressed in shimmering gold leather with light pleated details that reach up and under the flap mouth closure, a long chunky gold shoulder strap and topped off with the oversized Dolce and Gabbana signature goldtone logo plate.

Designer Handbag Sale: Lambertson Truex Colt Leather Purse
I don’t mind what the season is I love white handbags for all times of the year. My newest discovery is this white oversized designer bag by Lambertson Truex. Not as glamorous as the breathtaking Valentino Leather Glam Tote, that one is still number one on my white totes list, but still this one would make a great everyday tote.

The handbag is dressed in a soft-pebbled leather classic silhouette and detailed with simple silvertone hardware. This purse is also designed with features that are ideal for a school bag or work tote, such as the protective feet, double shoulder straps with an 8″ drop, one main zip compartment that’s lined with a suede material and features three open, two zip, and one cell phone pockets.

Designer Handbag Sale: Zac Posen Austyn Purse
I’m not done raving about purple this season! I have been resisting for a couple weeks now, but that was until I discovered this yummy gem color Amethyst designer handbag by one of our favorite designers here at BagBliss, Zac Posen.

This chic Zac Posen handbag is dressed in an amethyst gem colored grained leather with shiny patent trim throughout and accessorized with golden hardware stud accents. This purse also features double shoulder handles (9″ drop), top zip closure to keep your items from spilling out, two easy access outside zip pockets and one inside zip pocket to help with organization.
