Happy Halloween!
A reader sent this picture to us and we just had to share. How fabulous is this little girl going to be? I bet her mommy’s got some nice bags, including a few of the 2.55. Don’t forget to sign up for the Smythson giveaway, today is the last day. We will have a new [...]
Fendi Sequin and Wool Embellished Tote
I woke up this morning and went through my usual ritual of reading emails, publishing comments and checking out my favorite sites for the latest and greatest bags. As I sleepily went through the pages, this insanely ugly bag caught my eye and woke me up instantly. What am I looking at? Are those two [...]

Valextra Cream Crocodile
Photo courtesy of Style.com I went to Barneys recently and found Valextra heaven! They have really expanded the Valextra inventory and it will most likely destroy my long term savings plan. If current stuff doesn’t do it, their Spring 2008 line will for sure. Like this structured frame croc in dreamy cream that is sure [...]
Shiro Nubuck Crocodile
So this is what crocodile looks like inside out! What a great alternative to our fave exotic skin but let’s hope it wears better than its leather counterpart, suede. We discovered Shiro bags almost a year ago and American retailers are finally catching up to speed. I love the nubuck brown crocodile with patent crocodile [...]

Marc Jacobs Elsa Woven Leather Bag
(Hum to tune of Donny and Marie classic song) I’m a little bit Chanel, I’m a little bit Bottega, I’m the result of a lack of imagination and a little bit of hallucination. Seriously now, I expect a lot more from Marc Jacobs, the designer touted as boy genius of the fashion world. Just look [...]
