I can't seem to get enough of the color blue lately (or python for that matter!). I found myself mesmerized by the Lanvin Odette bag in blue python and then looked down at the two bags next to my desk that I've been using all weekend- a blue birkin and the new blue Oscar crocodile Alden. Uh, clearly I am overdosing on this fabulous shade but can you blame me? Blue is my black during the summer, it goes with everything and brings excitement even if I wear the dullest summer uniform of t shirt and jeans. Like I said last week, I am lusting for all the Lanvin bags this season but this is probably my favorite! The Odette has a unique clasp that slides to the left to open that reminded me of the doors on Deloreans- I know, such a minute detail but so important to people like me! There are two small studs in front and bottom of bag with a flat frame on top (so it won't droop!) that bring an urban feel to the classic chain bag shape, other than that, the bag is pure luscious python. $3,095 at Barneys New York- call Greg 469.221.4700

OMG! This is just gorgeous! It was my Bday yesterday, I should have asked someone to buy me this!
hey tina!
i love this bag. I might have possibly pulled the trigger on this one if I would have seen it. I opted for the Lanvin Cabas Leather Large Shopper. I fell in love with it. Now I just have to figure one or 5 outfits to go with it.
You're the best girls!

Color me blue, I am all about this shade!
Mesmerizing is the EXACT word for this bag. Do you remember like five years ago, Prada was doing bags this size in mint python with plastic jewels. This is so much cuter. :) I love it!
A super bag with a great price!
Are you referring to the very sleek Delorean car of my youth? If so, I really understand the appeal of this bag. Thanks for your great work!
I love the look of this clutch as well as the color but for that price tag I would rather opt for the B. Romanek Rockstar Crocodile Clutch in midnight blue. It's just me :-).
i'm right there with ya tina! blue is all the rage. this clutch is even hotter than the midnight rockstar!
My darlings,
How you manage to remember my bag purchases is beyond me. I totally forgot I got the Midnight blue Rock Star last month! http://www.bagsnob.com/2008/01/ysl_tribute_tstrap_for_the_sho.html
They are totally different and equally fabulous. I will not be getting this though, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't!
xoxo
I am at the office and should be working but can't help peeking at Bag Snob every hour or so :) Love this bag! It's sleek and modern and I love your Delorean analogy.
That's a fabulous bag, I love it : )
Hi Tina!
I love python skin too. I've got a gold python skin clutch by Michael Kors but I can't find any pictures of it online at all. It came out 2-3 months ago. It's really roomy and has two big gold clasps at the sides. It comes in bright pink, orange and green as well. There are matching totes too which are HUGE!
@candygunk i think this is the clutch you're talking about. i love it in white!

Tina,
I am obsessed with blue bags this spring/summer as well. I am waiting for my blue Muse 2 and for the Birkin in blue jean. What do you think of the Hermes Evelyn bag in blue jean? I need something casual for the summer. I will be travelling a lot with 2 little kids need a beautiful summer bag that's not too big and can be worn across the body (not my preferred look, but sometimes it's inevitable with a 2.5 yo and 7mo)
Thank you.
XO Julie
HI Julie,
since you ordered the birkin in blue jean, I suggest getting the Evelyn in another shade of blue like Turquoise which is amazing! I got Kelly the turquoise birkin last summer and wish I hoarded it for myself but it was her first so I let her have it.
The Hermes Turquoise is a true shade, literally the same color as the turquoise on my Van Cleef Alhambra necklace (which you must buy as well!). You will love it(the bag AND the necklace)!!!
xoxo
My dear Tina, did you buy this fantabulous posh bag too? It's shape, skin AND colour are ALL divine! I wonder if there is a strap attached to it, but even if there isn't, it still looks so damn gorgeous!
Dear Vogue,
I did not get this Lanvin bag. I have the lovely Midnight Rock Star from Romanek that I love, no need for another dark blue exotic clutch/bag :)
xoxo
Tina,
As always, your advice is fabulous. I love the idea od Turquoise Evelyn. I have the Alhambra in black enamel and white mother of pearl, and I am envious of your turquoise one...
XOXO Julie
James,
Yes that's the one! Although I've never seen it in white:)
Dear Tina,
thank you and thank you, I really love and enjoy reading your bagsnob and I would appreciate very much your advice on buying a birkin ostrich.
Tina, I am only to buy 1 birkin ostrich, which color should I get: the gris tourterelle or the rose naturelle.
Thank you very much for your advice.
Dear Lenny,
the gris tourterelle is a must. you will wear it with everything!!! the rose naturelle, though beautiful, will not be as wearable.
Thank you for your kind words and support.
