Under U.S. born Chief Executive Angela Ahrendts, the British luxury goods house, whose brand is experiencing its biggest revival since its trench coats clad British soldiers in World War One, has come to Hollywood to tap into celebrity-led lust for high-priced handbags.
Burberry has a long and distinguished history. Started in 1856 by Thomas Burberry, the company developed gabardine in the 1880s and introduced the modern trench coat. (The famous checkered pattern was introduced as a lining to the trench coat in the 1920s.) Rose Marie Bravo, a graduate of t...

I just realized that I actually do not own a Burberry handbag. Gasp! I own some scarves, a coat, and some other little accessories but no bag. Whether or not it makes sense, I would love to own at least one bag from all of the big designers. I just chuckled out loud thinking what my father or any othe...
