While all of us on the PurseBlog team love handbags, we also find ourselves constantly coveting a plethora of other items. We discuss a wide range of topics at the PurseBlog offices, from real estate to fur coats, and this week I can not stop staring at these three products in particular.
I have absolutely positively no qualms in declaring my never-ending love for Proenza Schouler . The schoolgirl bags with their downtown vibe have yet to lose traction in the accessory world
One of the biggest complaints with sunglasses these days is that they’re aren’t fishy enough. SUPER have responded accordingly, introducing the ‘Poissons’ as part of their Spring/Summer 2012 collection entitled ‘Visiva’
Last night’s Brits was full of winners, in both the singing and fashion departments (there were a few losers too, but lets gloss over that for the moment). One of the stand out performances came from Rihanna, who strutted the stage in a giant clear box full of paint throwing dancers. She also caught our attention outside the event, where she sported a pair of cat eye sunglasses.
A few new styles from Hermès , luggage for Spring/Summer 2012. These are at the luxury end of luxury, it would be crude to mention prices but you could probably swap the suitcase for a mid-sized car. Wheeled leather and herringbone cases and two styles of lockable travel bag, surprisingly heavy duty and undeniably smart – if you’re going to do it in style you can’t go wrong with Hermès .

OK, I admit it. I’m a shameless fan of the Royal Family. I love the traditions, the romance between Kate and William and I especially love that we get a holiday off for big weddings and Jubilees! Let’s be honest, they’re a lot more exciting then they were a few years ago
Colorblocking is such a big trend. You can colorblock your clothing
The season for fur is just about gone, but animal prints in general will never go out of style. Animal prints are hot! There is just no other word to describe them.
Every fashion week the biggest highlight for me is entering the world of a designer whose aesthetic is so composed, his collections always so utterly beautiful I have a hard time leaving at the end of the show. I am speaking of Oscar de la Renta , a man that is a permanent fixture of both the fashion world and the American design world. Icy blues and pale pinks glided down the runway for Oscar de la Renta Fall 2012 , some with so much volume that the gowns took over the entire width of the runway.
