Happy Halloween – Bags in Costume

Dressing up for Halloween is not just for people anymore – designer bags get in on the fun as well. At least that is the only plausible explanation for some of these bags. In the spirit of ghastly fun, here are some of my favorites.

JIMMY CHOO SAVANNAH AS POCAHONTAS

I love Pocahontas, I have an obsession with Native Americans, but still, I would rather buy an authentic “Savannah” bag at a reservation than this from Jimmy Choo for $1650. At Net a Porter.

MARNI ALPACA FUR TOTE AS THE COOKIE MONSTER

I love my Marni tote so to see it in this incarnation really makes me crazy.  But I guess everyone loves the Cookie Monster so what are you going to do?  At Browns Fashion for $1913.

R & Y AUGOUSTI SPANGLED CLUTCH AS A BELLY DANCER

ryaugousti_spangledclutch.jpgI love a snazzy clutch at much as the next girl but all I hear are clinking bells and someone seducing me out of a dollar bill. R & Y Augousti Spangled Clutch at Vivre for $425.

NANCY GONZALEZ CROCODILE AND MINK TOTE AS A SHARPEI

gonzalez_mink.jpgYes, it is cute if it were a dog but as a bag with the disproportionately big handle?  No.  Besides, I am a cat person.  Nancy Gonzalez Croc and Mink Tote at Vivre for $3680.

NOGOY STINGRAY WING CLUTCH AS A MASQUERADE MASK

VALENTINO ROSIER TOTE AS A FLORAL ARRANGEMENT CENTERPIECE

I know there are worse things to be but a floral arrangment is not the same thing as a tote.  The black and brown are perfect for Halloween though, colors of dead and dirty flowers.  At Neiman Marcus for $1950.

CHANEL “TIBET” AS A MALTESE

And it comes with a puppy maltese, for free!  That one hangs on to your ankles which is what tea cup dog lovers want anyways, right?  At Chanel Boutiques for $4995.

THE JUDITH LEIBER MINI PILLBOXES PRETEND AS BAGS

HAVE A FUN AND SAFE HALLOWEEN!!!

  4. love the post…. very funny!!

  5. The mask clutch is funny!

  6. Creepy bags. Wouldn´t take one,even for Halloween,even handed me free-with one exception-the Valentino one,which actually is the best one of all of these.It comes in different colors,less scary. I wonder what NC was thinking when she designed her mink bag.Surely none of these are intended just for Halloween use.

  7. I just got this pink bow bag and it went perfect with my Barbie costume! Love it! http://www.jennywashere.com/shop/barbie/barbie-metallic-hot-pink.aspx
