Fall is not my favorite season but in the fashion world, I love it! I adore black handbags and right before Fall all these fabulous handbags start coming out. One of those handbags is the Studded “Drew” by Diane von Furstenberg. I swear, two trends that just never seem to go away are the neon trend and my personal favorite, the stud trend. Diane von Furstenberg nailed the whole stud trend with this beauty! I especially love the mix of big and little studs featured all over the bag.

Michael Kors is one of my favorite handbag designers. He is literally the king of designing black leather handbags that feature gold hardware, which happens to be one of my favorite combinations when it comes to handbags. I remember when I was at a Michael Kors store earlier this year, I told the sales associate how much I loved black and gold style. He had told me that’s one of Michael Kors favorite color combinations too because of his love of the 60′s! Who would have ever guessed that? I just always thought it looked stylish!

At the moment, I’m craving to purchase a new handbag. I haven’t bought a new handbag in over a year and I’m literally dying to add a new one to my collection. I’ve been window shopping on the internet lately and I’m choosing between Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors and Tory Burch for my next handbag. Louis Vuitton is one of my favorite designers and I can’t get enough of the fabulous designer brand. Michael Kors will always hold a place in my heart because I’m obsessed with his shoes. Lastly, Tory Burch is a new comer in my collection. I currently do not own any handbags by Tory Burch. I do have a stunning pair of flats and I would love a matching handbag to go with them!

Rebecca Minkoff is by far my favorite handbag designer at the moment. Every time Shop Bop posts a new Rebecca Minkoff bag I fall in love. Every single design Mrs. Minkoff comes out with is always a hit and drop dead gorgeous. Right now, the “Jealous” satchel is making my heart go pitter patter! This purse is elegant, classy and most importantly fabulous!

It is hard to imagine that Reed Krakoff’s eponymous label has only been in existence for a short period of time. It is even harder to imagine that Reed Krakoff was again named Accessory Designer of the Year by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) for 2012. That says a lot about his designs considering he was up against other designers such as Proenza Schouler and Alexander Wang. Granted, he is not a newcomer to the fashion industry. But his name has not been floating around out there as an actual label for very long. The fact that he won, however, is no surprise to me. His designs are awesome, after all. He already has quite a following. Personally, I like many of his designs. However, I have recently been focusing on the Reed Krakoff Altantique Tote. It seems to have this way of grabbing my attention and I keep going back to it over and over again.

Vince Camuto is not a designer that I commonly associate with handbags. When I think of Vince Camuto, I think of shoes. Shoes that are not only sexy and sophisticated, but shoes that have a little bit of edge too! Plus they are affordable, so you won’t need to take out a second mortgage just to fill your closet. So I thought to myself, perhaps Vince Camuto handbags are worth taking a look at. To be honest, they aren’t too bad if you’re looking for a classic leather style that is relatively inexpensive. Not bad for a gal on a budget! After examining several styles from this designer, I think I have found one that I like. Meet the Vince Camuto Andrea Bag!

The Fendi Pre-Fall 2012 Collection is here! Wow, it is WAY too early to be thinking about fall (or pre-fall for that matter)! But this collection is now available to purchase, so I figured I might as well check it out. Interestingly, there was one bag that grabbed my attention almost immediately. Meet the Fendi Plaid Chameleon Tote!

Dolce and Gabbana has not been on my radar lately. It seems like more and more pieces from this designer have been popping up though. So I thought perhaps it was time to take a closer look. What I found was quite surprising! Don’t worry, it was the pleasant kind of surprise. The bags are a lot more beautiful than I remember them being. Perhaps Dolce and Gabbana was going through a phase before? All I know is that I like what I see now! One piece that particularly caught my eye is the Dolce and Gabbana Miss Sicily Crocheted Straw Handbag!
