awards season always puts clutches on our mind, as well as when it comes to choosing a bit evening bag, we always have the exact same problem: wedging a phone into a box clutch in a method that likewise fits our keys, wallet as well as lipstick. getting my phone in there at all is difficult, particularly when it has a situation on it (naked iPhones make me nervous), however accessing it throughout the evening without upsetting the delicate balance of my bag’s contents is well nigh impossible. The Kotur #Getsmartbag Elaphe Minaudiere has come up with at least one method to solve that problem: clip the phone to the outside of the bag. okay then. At very first I was anxious that this placement would motivate screen-scratching, however let’s deal with it: my phone is out all the time, colliding with tabletops as well as bars as well as…

There’s an old stating about the only sure things in life being death as well as taxes, however if you’re a purse buyer, there’s one more inevitability: cost increases. With brands like Chanel, Hermès as well as Louis Vuitton, they’re relatively simple to track; since the bags are only offered from the company’s boutiques, all the new product shows up at when as well as sales associates warn their loyal clients in advance. With brands that wholesale bags to third-party retailers as well as department stores, it’s a bit trickier. Because we have a riches of back-data on bag costs to sift with (hello, PurseBlog publish archives), we chosen eight super-popular bags from brands that offer their wares at department stores as well as did some spot-checks to see exactly how much, if at all, the costs have gone up for the versions that have just shown up in stores.…

even though it seems like purses get more as well as more costly every season, there’s at least a bit of evidence that costs are leveling out at some levels of the market. unusual Hermès Birkins may be selling for ever-higher prices, however the most costly bags from brands like Fendi, Givenchy as well as The Row seem to have cooled down. We track a range of ultra-luxury classifications in stock at on the internet retailers every season, including exotic as well as heavily embellished bags, as well as not only have costs in those classifications leveled off, however fewer bags in those classifications are discovering their methods onto the websites of big on the internet retailers. That may suggest a stagnation in consumer rate of interest in the US, a wish by brands to keep those unusual bags from seeming as well typical or both. Whatever the reason, you…

After fall 2010’s onslaught of fuzzy purses, I hoped against hope that fur bags would be a single-season trend and that when cold weather rolled around again, we would have forgotten all about them. Unfortunately, the advent of the first fall 2011 pre-orders has made my hopes look like nothing more than pipe dreams. The fur bags have returned. I don’t have any particular gripe with the look of fur, although I prefer to keep my own fur purchases faux or vintage. In fact, I’m very much looking forward to scouring vintage stores for a fur coat of my own for winter. but I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: The innate texture of fur and innate structure of handbags do not go together. At all. like the Lanvin fur Trousse shoulder Bag that you see at right, when the two combine, all that results is a big…

pleased Friday morning! We took some time off from Bag deals for fashion month (and because this isn’t a particularly great time to be searching for designer discounts), but now we’re back at it with a fresh crop of discounted designer bags, just for you. As mentioned, this time of year can be pretty challenging for those wanting to snag a deal. many sites have fully cleaned out their sale sections, making room for the most recent and greatest new arrivals, and it’s not quite holiday shopping season yet, so the pickings are kind of slim. Still, we did our due diligence to bring you the best of the internet. So without even more ado, Friday bag deals are in. best here, best now! Chloé Darryl small Hobo $1,450 now 60% off $870 Stella McCartney FFF small Bag $1,050 now 40% off $630 Valentino East-West Calf leather tote Bag $3,250…

Miu Miu as a whole is brand I in some cases fail to remember about in spite of the truth that they create lots of new bags every season. Additionally, they have a quite faithful following. Miu Miu is Prada’s bit sister, named after Miuccia Prada herself, who’s the brand’s founder. Miu Miu has a distinct as well as particular aesthetic that separates them from their older sibling. mainly understood for their luxurious matelassé leather as well as crystal detailing, the brand provided a somewhat new direction for autumn 2020, focusing on structured clutches as well as styles that are a bit much more minimalistic than in the past. believe smooth leather top deal with bags with monochrome logos as well as matelassé bags sans embellishment. Once I got past the completely-on-purpose, wrinkled RTW I was able to hone in on the bags, as well as I have to say,…
