There is no closure and the bag has canvas lining.

The Jimmy Choo Mandah Medium shoulder bag is a nice oversized bag with a bit of a Moroccan style to it, in my opinion. It’s made of teal calf leather and suede. It has a wrap-around zip fastening at the center to adjust the size of the bag. But the thing that stands out the most and makes the bag what it is (and is what makes me say it has a bit of a Moroccan style), is the multicolored Swarovski crystal and gold and silver-tone stud-embellished on the central panel.

I’ve never been a big fan of anything satin, and although the Lanvin Oulala satin clutch is nice to look at, I can’t imagine it being very practical. But I’m sure a lot of people will love it, so here are all the details: The black clutch has a frayed-edge pompom and crystal embellishment. It has a concealed press-stud fastening.

It’s been a while since I’ve written about a bag or clutch by Alexander McQueen, but here is yet another unique design by the British Fashion Designer – The Alexander McQueen Faithful Glove Clutch. It’s a bit of an unusual design, and I can’t decide whether I love it or think it’s a little unappealing. The idea of having a bag where you constantly think something is on it, or has fallen out of it and is on its way to the ground, isn’t one I particularly like. But at the same time, it’s awesome! And after all, the glove is attachable so you don’t have to use it.

Who wouldn’t love this? A sparkling crystal-embellished heart-shaped clutch.

The Judith Leiber Heart N Soul clutch is black hand-painted clutch with silver-tone hardware and a chain handle that can be hidden inside the bag. I much prefer it with the chain myself. The handle drop is 8 inches.

It has a push-lock closure at the top and a hinge at the base. It is lined in silver leather and comes with a small designer-engraved vanity mirror.

This little beauty is perfect for evening. Wear it to glam up your cocktail dress.

The Peacock is a beautiful bird so I’m not surprised Judith Leiber chose to use it for one of her many quirky designs. The Judith Leiber Peacock clutch is a black, transparent, gray and pink hand-painted and crystal-embellished peacock-shaped clutch with silver-tone hardware. The clutch has a frosted white gem embellishment and a scalloped trim.

I adore this bag from YSL. As soon as I saw it, I thought it would be a great big bag for shopping, and what do ya know – it’s called the Yves Saint Laurent Medium Shopping Leather Tote.

With its delish and exquisite leather design it features a logo rope detail in between the lining and body.

It has double shoulder straps with a 6 inch drop. There is no closure but the inside has a zipper pouch. The bag has canvas lining. The dimensions are as follows: 12½”W X 14″H X 4″D.

The Yves Saint Laurent Medium Shopping Leather Tote is available to buy through Saks for $945.

The Donna Karan Crosstown Flat Hobo is fairly similar to the Donna Karan Studded Oval Hobo in terms of style and shape. However this one, sold exclusively at Saks and Saks.com, has a chaos printed leather design in a flat silhouette with front and back pockets.

The lining is cotton and the dimensions are as follows: 16″W X 14″H X 4″D.

The Donna Karan Crosstown Flat Hobo is available to buy exclusively through Saks for $795.

I’m really loving the Bottega Veneta bags (as you might have noticed). They look so luxurious with their woven textures. The Bottega Veneta Flat Leather Tote is no exception with its buttery leather design. It has both smooth and woven textures which are flat shape and rich, plus contrast suede lining.

The Bottega Veneta Woven Leather Tote is a lovely elegant accessory in supple leather.
