Who is my Bag Designer of the Year? I have so many favorite individual bags but do any of those translate to the comprehensive title? One great bag doesn’t make the cut there has to be multiple bags in a collection. There are designers who have multiple style that I love but aren’t necessarily new designs. I think the designer of the year has to be a trendsetter and have a collection of bags that I covet. It could also be a newer face on the bag scene that is making a splash. So, who makes me want to max out my credit cards??

My frontrunners for Bag Designer of the Year:

Tods. My first designer bag was a Tods and they have really upped their designs this year with fresh styles and shapes, new leathers and a modern edge to classic shapes that will be a staple of a wardrobe for years to come. The Shopper Tote, the Ivy, D-Bauletto, Ava so many amazing bags. Beautiful everyday handbag styles but what about a clutch? for $1300.00
♥ Tod’s AGJ Media Bag available at Saks Fifth Avenue!

Yves Saint Laurent: Always beautiful, quality handbags and I’ve been infatuated with the Roady hobo bag for more than a year now. The Muse is a must have for any fashionista…but what’s new? This Muse Two combines the colorblock trend with a satchel in fun red, linen and navy shades. $1895.

Celine: The Trapeze and Luggage Totes are arguably the most coveted bags of the year. Worn by major models and celebrities, these bags are striking in their chic design and new shapes. But, Celine is very limited in availability. New styles are pretty much limited to in-store shopping at some of the most upscale boutiques and department stores in extremely limited quantities. Availability is definitely an issue. The black calfskin portfolio can be found on Bluefly on sale for $2430.

Reed Krakoff: One of the newest designers to make a huge splash on the bag scene. Reed Krakoff is the designer behind the most successful brand purchased by everyone from college girls to celebrities. The new line launched with huge success. I also love many of the designs and the bags are great quality too. The Boxer Tote is a beautiful new style and I still covet the mini-crossbody in black. Check out this beautiful red Boxer on mytheresa for $990.00

Alexander McQueen: You know I adore the clutches. The skull box clutch and De Manta clutches are my absolute favorites, but I’ve yet to see a satchel, hobo or shoulder bag that elevates the entire line above others.
The ocelot printed De Manta is striking and reasonably priced on sale for $367.99

Fendi: I remember Fendi as a huge line from the late 80s and hadn’t seen much innovation over the years. But this year was special. The Silvana and Chameleon were major successes and the new striped bags are fun and fashion forward. $2300 at Saks in multicolor tote in cobalt blue.

Designer Deal: Celine Monte Carlo Clutches
I remember seeing the Celine Monte Carlo Clutch awhile back over on Elux. Back then, I wasn’t too impressed with the clutch. Its a nice, simple, elegant clutch… but I just didn’t feel it was worth the $490 price tag. There is good news though in regards to the Celine Monte Carlo Clutch. That’s right, it is has been marked down and added to Elux’s designer handbag sale that they have going on right now. Now that the price has come down, this clutch has started to look more and more appealing to me. What do you all think?

For those of you that do not know, Celine was originally founded by Celine Viplana back in 1945. A children’s shoe company at birth, Celine eventually developed a women’s accessory line. Today, the brand falls under the luxury powerhouse LVMH.

In my opinion, the Celine Monte Carlo Clutch has its charm. Its clean lines and simple shape would make it a perfect evening bag. The clutch is available in three colors: Pearl White Patent, Silver Crystal Patent, and Black. The black, in particular, is very pretty because they have given the leather a subtle sheen. The clutch is also quite versatile with its removable shoulder strap. It measures 11″ x 5″ x 1″ and is now priced at a more reasonable $295. Sounds like a pretty good deal to me!

You can find the Celine Monte Carlo Clutch here: at eLUXURY
Plus don’t forget they are currently offering FREE shipping!

Celine Vallauris Sulky Bittersweet Bag
The latest from the Designer House of Celine for spring 2008 comes the Bittersweet Bag painted with a Vallauris (France) Sulky graphic print. Since 1967 Celine has used the “Sulkyâ€? as the signature emblem –a very lightweight horse drawn two wheeled cart– which has made it onto being the focal image of this bag, in the setting of Vallauris France. (Random fact: prior to 1967 their signature was a red elephant).

The Celine Vallauris Sulky Bittersweet version above is created of light beige leather and retails for approximately $1,185, however for a couple grand more you can get the real exotic version in white python.

Song Hye Kyo (Celine “Miss Song� Bag) is coming to America!
Back in July Bag Bliss revealed the news and sparked the interest of many Celine enthusiasts that a new Celine bag designed by Korean Actress Song Hye Kyo, called the “Miss Song,� was expected to be released this fall, but sadly reported only in Asia. Since the news broke the label noticed that the new limited edition bag (which basically looks like Celine’s Bittersweet purse) also sparked interest in Europe as well as in the US (well duh), so have decided to release a limited number of purses to the Celine boutiques around the world.

Keep an eye out. This L.E. newbie should be arriving on store shelves soon…

side note: Song Hye Kyo is the first Korean star to have an international designer bag named after her. Congrats.
