The Peek-a-boo satchel made another appearance on Fendi's Fall 2009 runway in Milan yesterday along with several new uninspired clutches including what appears to be a skunk roadkill. This saddens me... I was hopeful after seeing the peek-a-boo bags from last season and thought they'd make more fabulous bag but judging from the atrocities on the runway... it looks like business as usual at Fendi.

In line with the feel of the entire collection, Michael Kors Fall bags are elegant and understated with subtle surprises that has me widening my eyes in intrigue. Keep the outlandish bold statement for other designers and stay true to your American "neo-classics", Michael! Using only shapes and a splash of sparkle, the bag collection has purpose and personality, like the simple but totally cute black trapezoid lady's bag, used as a wristlet on the runway. It is a cleaned up look without any fuss. And instead of a giant chainmail bag, he is using mesh on a clutch that gives the illusion of a beaded look without the stodginess.
