3.1 Phillip Lim has come up with some interesting looking bags lately.  My favorite being, of course, the Edie Bow Bag (okay, not a brand new  style, but still pretty darn cool!). But here’s something that I don’t  normally think of when I think of this line — a wristlet! Introducing  the 3.1 Phillip Lim Studded Berry Wristlet! It’s a tiny package that  packs quite a punch!Oddly, if it wasn’t for the all-over studs having a distinctive cone  shape, I would have sworn that this wristlet was one of Alexander Wang’s  creations. After all, he really likes to crowd the surface of a bag  with lots and lots of chunky studs! But you know what, I think Lim does  the whole stud thing pretty well. They are the same kind of studs found  on my beloved Edie Bow Bag, but they are arranged in a tight grid  pattern.All of this on a slightly metallic, silver suede background!  Pretty! And if you’re not in the mood for a funky wristlet, you can  remove the strap and use this baby as a compact wallet. Duel zip-around  compartments conceal credit card slots, bill compartments, and a coin  pocket. Everything you would find in a regular wallet (minus, perhaps, a  checkbook cover) can be found right here! Perfect for a minimalist’s  night out or a fun surprise inside your everyday handbag!Find the 3.1 Phillip Lim Studded Berry Wristlet at SSense!#gallery-2 {margin: auto;}#gallery-2 .gallery-item {float: left;margin-top: 10px;text-align: center;width: 33%;}#gallery-2 img {border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;}#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {margin-left: 0;}

Stella & Jamie Sue Fringe Bag

It’s time for a bit of fun — fun with fringe that is! And nothing would fit the bill better than a fringed handbag! No matter what style, they are one of the most playful accessories you can own! My favorites, of course, being those with mountains and mountains of fringe (e.g. JJ Winters). But if the thought of an all-over fringe bag sounds a bit suffocating to you, then there are definitely some great alternatives out there. I recently stumbled across a gorgeous bag with all the benefits of fringe, but it won’t weigh you down quite so much. Check out the Sue Fringe Bag from Stella and jamie!This lovely leather bag features a classic hobo shape. It is slouchy and casual, yet simple and chic. The modest design is liven up though, thanks to a simple sweep of fringe running along the lower edge of the bag on each side. Plus the peek-a-boo pyramid studs on the ends add just the right amount of flair.I love the length of this bag too, which makes it really stand out. The bag itself hits just below the hip, but the fringe reaches clear down past the knees! This beautiful piece definitely makes a statement! It would look great paired with some tall boots and same-shade scarf (à la Kourtney Kardashian)!Discover the Stella & Jamie Sue Fringe Bag at Singer22! It is available in Camel right now, but Black is available for pre-order.

CC Skye 1945 Bullet Bag

Who doesn’t like vintage handbags? Digging around in grandma’s closet can lead to all sorts of wonderful treasures! So glamorous and sophisticated, there is just something about vintage handbags that make you feel like one chic little fashonista! This feeling is also really hard to match, there really is no comparison. Well… until now! Meet The 1945 Bullet Bag from CC Skye! This bag may not be vintage, but its vintage-inspired style will definitely give you that vintage glam feeling!What I love most about this bag is its classic trapezoid shape and double frame closure. See that large lock perched on top? Each side of the lock opens one side of the divided interior. I guess that makes this bag classy AND organized! I also love the glazed, snake-embossed leather. It prevents this style from looking to “Plain Jane”. Plus the optional shoulder strap offers some extra versatility! It definitely looks the most glam when held in hand, but it is always nice to have that shoulder strap available just in case you find your hands full! Pair this classic beauty with a dressy blouse and black cigarette pants or pencil skirt. Feeling a bit more casual? Try pairing it with a pair of this season’s floaty shorts!The CC Skye The 1945 Bullet Bag can be found at ShopBop, where it is available in Black Python!

Fendi Forever Hobo

The joy of warm weather brings the prettiest handbags to the sales racks. Prints, floral and vibrant colors are always attractive in every brand, but when you have a high-end designer piece sporting a striking shade of color, it is practical to want to adapt it as your one and only summer splurge. Fendi has one of the most attractive pieces I have seen this season, greet the ‘Forever’ Metallic Calfskin Hobo by the Italian House.This style carries a large body that is slouchy-squared, in a gorgeous shade of metallic magenta leather. The next feature after the color that caught my attention was the adjustable lengthy flat straps that allow this piece to be worn on the lower division of the body. Think cute messenger style or long bohemian chic look. Fendi made sure to emphasize on these straps by inserting the attractive detailing of embellished chain links. Lately, the oversized metal logo has been a popular hit, and its definitely not lacking here. The appealing double F’s feature a magnetic closure and enameled filling that resembles a true gem. Fendi did a lively job with this glam bag, as any true fan would definitely approve of this as uplifting. You can find this pretty through the online shops of: Fendi Boutique at Nordstrom!

Il Bisonte Handbags

Wanny Di Filippo, an eclectic Italian designer, has a passion for bison. It is so intense that he owns over 1000 of them as expressed through sculpture, drawings, engravings and other objects. His love is so deep that he named his line of handbags and accessories Il Bisonte. With stores worldwide, I only recently discovered his line via the luxury website, Luisa Via Roma.With so much interested in structured bags, studded, fringed, over-sized and a plethora of other treatments, it was refreshing to see a line that is uncluttered, pure, chic and supple as many of his bags are done. Oh, there’s an ode to the wild west and his passion for bison, but mostly, you will see clean design, and essential materials of luxurious cowhide, cotton canvas and more.The natural cowhides are vegetable tanned and develop a patina over time unique to each user and it’s uses. Think Louis Vuitton vachetta handles that become more rich over time. If you are on of the few who dislike aged, uneven, well-loved leather like this, then read no more. For the rest of you who appreciate the beauty of this material, then you’ll be very excited by this line.While somewhat evocative of the Old West, pictures of Wild Bill Hickock and Annie Oakley popped into my head when I first saw the collection. Taken on their own, there are plenty of simple, chic styles that go way beyond the Wild Wild West. I dearly love the mini cross-body for running errands and the Shoulder Bag is a true workhorse (pardon the pun) for those who need to lug around a laptop or ipad, extra pair of shoes and much more.While you can order or shop (in store) for bags of various colors and sizes, most of the offerings on Luisa Via Roma are simple tanned cowhide. With easy-on-the-budget pricing, selection ranges from a mini limited edition Simple Bag cross body for $164 (also in white LOVE it!!) to a large Vachetta Shoulder Bag for $795. A limited edition calfskin ponyhair bag with fringing for $301 is made exclusively for Luisa Via Roma. My personal favorite is the simple Calfskin Shoulder Bag for $425 with it’s softly rounded shape.See these and other selections at LUISAVIAROMA or pop into an store in your area!#gallery-2 {margin: auto;}#gallery-2 .gallery-item {float: left;margin-top: 10px;text-align: center;width: 33%;}#gallery-2 img {border: 2px solid #cfcfcf;}#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {margin-left: 0;}

Reese Witherspoon Style: Chloe Marcie Hobo

I am normally a fan of Reese Witherspoon’s style. Her everyday look is casual and care-free, sometimes with a little bit of boho mixed in. When I saw this photo, however, I was taken aback just a little bit. I suppose the blue and white woven top isn’t so bad by itself. It is those white jeans that are throwing me off. The outfit looks too matchy-matchy, as if the pieces came together as a set. But I suppose I can forgive her. After all, her taste in handbags appears to be completely unaffected. Check out that gorgeous bag on her arm! It is the Chloe Marcie Hobo!I have probably said this before, but I will say it again. You can never go wrong with a great hobo! And this is one great hobo! I love the structured crescent shape, it really makes this piece stand out. The horseshoe-shaped flap front adds a nice touch, hiding an exterior pocket in the process. I also love the wrapped handle, which can be worn over the shoulder or carried in hand. An investment piece for sure, but it is something that can go just about everywhere! It can even be worn with white jeans!Discover the Chloe Marcie Hobo at NET-A-PORTER where it is available in Black, Nut, or Teal!
