Handbag Gals

This is my very first Bottega Veneta post, yay! Although I (embarrassingly) didn’t know the name, I kept seeing all these beautiful bags and thought: I must add a section on my blog for them. After all, they have been going since 1966 but were bought by Gucci in 2001. Anyway, back to the bag…

This is the Bottega Veneta Cervo Hobo. This luxurious leather bag has an artisan braided shoulder strap. The trim has super-soft suede lining. The single shoulder strap has a drop of 6½ inches.

There is no closure with the inside has a zipper pocket and one open pocket.

The Marc Jacobs Amber Corner Zip Tote is quite nice and has some nice little features. It’s made of black leather and has golden hardware.

It has top handles with rings and a 7 1/2 inch drop. The closure is a magnetic snap closure. A couple of nice little features are the side zippers and the golden padlock.

The bag has khaki lining with logo detail. Inside it has a zip and open pocket.

The dimensions are as follows: 13″H x 14″W x 6″D.

The Marc Jacobs Amber Corner Zip Tote is available to buy through Neiman Marcus for $995.

I quite like the Donna Karan Studded Oval Hobo. It’s pretty simple but also edgy and slightly rock-chick. I can imagine it with a daytime outfit and also for a more dressed up evening look.

The bag is made from black calfskin and has studded trim with silver hardware.

It has a shoulder strap (unfortunately I couldn’t find any information on how many inches the drop is).

Additionally the bag has front slash pockets. No zipper? Be careful your stuff doesn’t fall out. And of course one last feature: the logo plate detail.

The Donna Karan Studded Oval Hobo is available to buy through Neiman Marcus for $795.

When I first saw the Christian Louboutin Sequined Pouch it looked a little messy and bloody to me. I couldn’t figure out what I was looking at, until of course I paid attention to the name and realized the effect comes in the form of sequins. You see, I’ve never been a fan of sequins and I was a little surprised to see them on this little bag.

You never really know what you’re going to get when a new clutch from Judith Leiber pops up. After all, she has quite unusual and quirky designs but the Judith Leiber Bee-Line Clutch is one of her more subtle ones.

It’s far from the “usual” however, with its honeycomb cut-out detail which I actually find pretty cute. Imagine this in yellow and black… or even better, with a big bee costume on. No? Maybe that’s a little too far.

This Christian Louboutin Tuxedo satin clutch is ultra chic, sophisticated and perfect with pants/trousers and a shirt. It’ll add femininity to a tailored look.

It’s black satin with pleated fabric embellishment. It has a fold-over flap with a magnetic fastening, as well as an internal pouch pocket and red twill lining.

Talk about an eye-catching color. You wouldn’t miss the Valentino Satin bow clutch and why would you want to?

This Fuchsia evening clutch will add a splash of color to a glamorous dark evening dress.

It comes with a gold-tone top zip fastening and is lined in black satin.

The designer label can be found on the interior and comes in a protective dust bag.

This Christian Louboutin Maykimay Swarovksi-embellished clutch is a must-have party piece and can even be called a “statement party piece.” The radiant clutch has a zip fastening along top with a signature crystal-embellished shoe zip pull, an internal pouch pocket and a signature red lining.

I’m really into the glazed look at the moment, it reminds me of various to-die-for Chanel bags and while this Miu Miu Large glazed leather tote is brown, it’s no exception. It’s eye catching but not in an obvious way and it’s really quite casual, yet smart.

Now for the details: It’s brown and glazed but I pretty much covered that already. The tote has a ruched top opening with gold-tone hardware. The strap has details around the outside and a detachable shoulder strap, as well as two top handles.

Although it’s very much winter time and Christmas is right around the conor, this papaya Miu Miu Gathered leather tote is a very cute and summery tote, in my opinion. Of course it goes well with winter outfits as well but I can really imagine it with a girlie summery dress and sandals.
