For a brand that uses no external logos, monograms or even so much as a tiny name stamp, a Bottega Veneta bag sure is easy to spot from a mile away. Not only does any handbag addict know Bottega’s signature intrecciato woven leather well, but Tomas Maier’s reign at the Italian company has brought with it signature … Read the rest

Get sporty with the Diane von Furstenberg Drew python-effect leather tote

I spent the vast majority of my life as a competitive athlete. In fact, PurseBlog wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for me being an athlete; Vlad and I met on our college swim team. The day I was done swimming, I was done swimming. Actually I was done working out entirely. I was burned out and ready to veg … Read the rest

This may sound a tad odd, but I’m consistently impressed with Prada’s dedication to designing quirky, intellectually rigorous, thoroughly modern runway collections that won’t sell particularly well to anyone other than slavish fashion devotees. Few companies of a similar size are willing to put things as broadly inaccessible as Prada Fall 2012 down the runway, and that … Read the rest

After a lineup last season that left something to be desired, Fendi Fall 2012 extends the brand’s recent history of stellar accessories collections. Just look at that bag up there, you guys. Just look at it. I don’t have to explain why that’s an awesome bag. If you love accessories, then you already know it instinctively.

By Megs Mahoney Dusil on Feb 24, 2012 10:00 am 
The disdain that some people have for monogrammed handbags has grown exponentially over the years. Classic monogram patterns are some of the most sought-after and worn designs ever, but although everyone knows the Louis Vuitton monogram, for example, not everyone likes it. I don’t find it as abhorrent as others do, and seeing Louis Vuitton find ways to implement it … Read the rest

For a dedicated lover of black (on black on black) like me, a collection like Gucci Fall 2012 is incredibly difficult to resist. Even though I tend to buy colorful bags to pair with my dark wardrobe, black will always be my first and only true love, and a good black accessory deserves its own place in … Read the rest

By Megs Mahoney Dusil on Feb 23, 2012 04:00 pm 
I so desperately want Tibi to start designing bags so I can talk about them non-stop on PurseBlog. This is one of my favorite brands whose designs are a complete match with my personal style. It only helps me love them more that they have a truly wonderful creative director, Amy Smilovic, who loves what she does and understands … Read the rest

In two ways, I always dread the Burberry show at London Fashion Week. First, because I know that Christopher Bailey’s beautiful ready-to-wear, and his outerwear in particular (THOSE COATS.), will threaten to drain my bank account all over again with one swift poke the the pleasure center in my brain, which apparently really likes wool. Second, because … Read the rest

Something tells me that you guys will have plenty to say about this photo, so I won’t say much. A few days ago, reality star and attention-seeker extraordinaire Kim Kardashian hung out on the beach in Miami with her bestie Jonathan Cheban, and what did she use to tote her beach essentials? Why, a black leather Hermes … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Feb 23, 2012 08:00 am 
Maybe it’s because of my Downton Abbey marathon this weekend, but it feels to me like there’s something a tad Edwardian about Tory Burch Fall 2012. The clothes themselves had more references to midcentury Chanel than to turn-of-the-century British nobility, but something about the way that all of the models were so impeccably covered hit a slightly more traditional … Read the rest
