Our obsession with Christian Louboutin (we own almost every pair of shoes he made in the last few seasons!) continues with this gorgeous black satin clutch. There is nothing sexier than a pair of stilettos and a silky bag, you can wear jeans with a t-shirt and still look ragin’ hot! The Venus is generously sized to hold more than the requisite lipstick and change. This is a bag for high maintenance girls (meaning me) who need her cosmetic case filled with 10 shades of lipgloss (for custom blending of course!), silver eyeliner, pink blush, and KAI gardenia perfume oil (this will make your man melt, I promise!) for an evening out. I also never leave the house without my cell phone, wallet, Hermes brag book with baby photos, and candy (those who know me know that I need to eat constantly!). $895 at Net-A-Porter (free shipping extended until June 30th for bag snobs!)
Christian Louboutin is at the very top of my wish list. My love is unhindered by the fact that I don’t actually own any of those gorgeous shoes. One day, my pretties, one day.
HI Moose,
Neiman marcus is about to have last call, you should check if they have any Louboutins left! They say he’s the new “Manolo Blahnik”, I say he’s BETTER! Manolos don’t come close to the comfort or style of Louboutins. I can run in these, I swear!
Good luck

Dear Ms BagSnob
Not that we envy you your good fortune for the great wealth that permits you to purchase almost every pair of this season’s CL’s, while we (I) have only one pair, and that bought in the UK Vogue sample sale. Because we know that with your wealth comes true generosity of spirit, this blog.
So we have a question. What do you think of the modestly-priced Bologna house of Furla, several of whose bags we (I) have owned over the years?
Hi Furlagirl,
We love sample sales too! We also love last call, I wear a size 5.5 which is almost always available as only 12 year olds (and me) wear that size. I do have to admit to splurging on numerous pairs full price though
One of my friends buys Louboutin shoes 10 pairs at a time!
As for Furla, I think they are great bags at very reasonable prices.
Best,
The Bag Snob
