I love Botkier handbags! They are so stylish and affordable, what isn’t there to like? They have been so popular among celebrities too. Whether it is on the arms of celebrities or everyday people walking down the street, there is one bag I haven’t seen very much of and that is the Botkier Eden Satchel

Fall River, MA is an old textile community that has had its share of ups and downs but modern day businesses like Frank Clegg Leatherworks – themselves around for decades – continues to share with the world their quality products in the world of leather goods. Their Aiden bag is strong look in collection and is a piece dedicated by Frank Clegg himself to his father – himself a craftsmen in the workshop for more than two decades. A full RIRI zipper extends the length of the bag

I don’t say this around here enough: I love Kotur clutches , which are designed by native New Yorker Fiona Kotur.

Scrolling through the endless selection of bags on ASOS’ website in an almost trancelike state these goggley eyed little numbers caught my own goggley eyes. I love a fun quirky bag; it can lift an otherwise potentially dull outfit, it demonstrates your fun-side and it puts a smile on the face of anyone who spots it! The yellow backpack screams festival – team with washed out denim shorts, some kind of graphic print tee and Ray Bans. The umbrella see-through shopper is perfect for waterproofing your belongings on rainy days

Gucci is on a hot roll this season! First, I fell for the 1970 tassel bag, which I now cherish in grassy green; now I’m craving the Soft Stirrup bag in soft nubuck suede (or supple crocodile or shimmering python or washed calfskin…Hell, who am I kidding? I want it ALL!). A new-millennium interpretation of the iconic, structured Stirrup style of 1975, Gucci has shed the original hard frame to introduce a bag softer and more touchable – which makes it all the more covetable

Death, taxes, and paying full retail on Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton: when you’re a handbag addict, those are the three things that are guaranteed in life.

Louis Vuitton is famous for a lot of things at this point, and among them is the brand’s highly profitable relationship with the modern art community. Vuitton has collaborated with world-famous artists like Stephen Sprouse and Takashi Murakami on collections that have been nothing short of wildly successful, and in the process, that brand has spurred a full-on collaborative art trend among accessories brands as wide-ranging as Christian Dior and Coach

Louis Vuitton is going dotty. The luxury fashion house has officially announced their latest major collaboration with Yayoi Kusama, one of today’s most prominent Japanese artists.

Functional can be so boring so of course my recommendation is always to go with some exotic to spice things up. Well, first of all, that investment level might not work for everyone and secondly, and more importantly, do you really want to overuse your precious crocodile as a highly functional everyday bag that you throw all your junk in?
