Man Bag Monday: Let's keep this brief(case)
By Amanda Mull on Apr 30, 2012 08:00 am 
I’ve always been attracted to the idea of a briefcase. Perhaps its because they’re the most prototypical of the masculine bags, or perhaps they’re intriguing to me because they’re the type of accessory I’m least likely to ever carry myself. Either way, the sleek, businesslike simplicity of a briefcase never ceases to pique my interest; more so than any other … Read the rest

The Weird, Wonderful World of Hermes.com
By Amanda Mull on Apr 27, 2012 12:00 pm 
From time to time, we like to take a look at some of the lesser-known products that the world’s biggest brands stock on their websites. From pencils to flasks to wine accouterments, Hermes has always excelled at these nifty little pieces, and the brand certainly has a following that’s dedicated enough to snap up whatever it is it manufactures … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 27, 2012 08:00 am 
Megs and I? Balenciaga fangirls. Even our new marketing director Hilary is getting in on the act – a Balencaiga Giant City Bag was the first thing added to her wardrobe after she joined our team a few months ago. The brand is best known for its Motorcycle Bags in a litany of colors, which are refreshed every season and … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 26, 2012 11:00 am 
No, you haven’t traveled in some kind of time warp back to Monday. (How cruel would that be?) Yes, these are man bags. Just like men’s oversized watches, oxfords and loafers have become a trendy (not to mention totally chic) option for women in recent years, a men’s bag can also add a fresh, slightly unexpected element to an ensemble. … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 26, 2012 08:00 am 
Ever since Clare Waight Keller took the top creative spot at Chloe, I’ve been an unrepentant fangirl. Waight Keller has required an incredibly short turnaround time to set the brand back on a chic path that many had felt it lost after the exit of Phoebe Philo several years ago, and the collections, from ready-to-wear to accessories to shoes, have … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 25, 2012 03:00 pm 
Bravo did it to us again last night. Instead of making one episode about the buildup to a not-particularly-interesting event and then the event itself, they promised they’d do that, and then they split it into two. That means that we watched a bunch of people doing absolutely nothing last night while they waited around for Gretchen to perform in … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 25, 2012 11:00 am 
Megs and I recently gave you guys a rundown of the season’s best wedding bags, both traditional and quirky, but there’s one little clutch that we didn’t include because we couldn’t decide which category it would belong in. On the one hand, the Chanel Shell Minaudieres are everything you expect out of a traditional nuptial bag – small, luxurious, … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 25, 2012 08:00 am 
I’m betting that you all remember the agony and the ecstasy that resulted from The Row releasing a $33,000 alligator backpack as part of its Spring 2012 collection. Some people gushed over it and media outlets reported that the piece sold out, but most of the accessories community gave the bag’s astronomical price tag a heavy eye-roll; it takes a … Read the rest

By Amanda Mull on Apr 24, 2012 04:00 pm 
In case you hadn’t heard, Dolce & Gabbana is shutting down its little sister line D&G after Spring 2012. That means that the D&G clothes, handbags and shoes in store right now are the last we’ll ever see. (Until the line has a Versus-like revival in 10 or 15 years, of course.) If these three D&G Printed Quilted Twill Bags… Read the rest

By Megs Mahoney Dusil on Apr 24, 2012 02:00 pm 
There are times when the fashion world faces a lull in new product. We are between seasons right now, which means that most of Spring 2012′s products have arrived in stores but Fall 2012 still won’t ship for several months. Every year, this is the time when I scour the Internet for something different. After staring at handbags for nearly … Read the rest
