Rate Gucci Jungle Large Tote

I might be in need of some perspective here but I think this is a great price for a big python tote, and a Gucci one at that. OK, fine it is $3800 but a Chanel leather tote is $3000! I am intrigued by the natural python markings kept on the skin, it has an ombre effect but it is natural and swirls aroun...

J'adore CHANEL, and the Spring 2010 show this week at the Palais was nothing short of spectacular (read about it here on Garance Dore).  Theatrics aside, we took a close look at the bags and found a few refreshing additions to the classic styles and a few that just made no sense!  The multi emb...

The world is full of different types--from the woman who's got a closet full of Birkins and Chanel to the girl who's more monogamous and single-minded, picking only one special bag at a time to lavish her attention on. Bagsnob wants to know: What type are you? How often do you buy bags?

Rate Balenciaga Quilted Shoulder Bag

Anyone who has been living outside of a cave the last 10 years is now sick of "classic" Balenciaga bags. OK fine, they put grommets on the recent ones to update the look but they are essentially the same bag. Apparently, they are incapable of veering from that template because whenever they do...

I've been having some travel dramas lately and I've decided, I need to just do it right and travel in style. Life is seriously too short to suffer while traveling, I mean what's the point?

Freida Pinto is picture above wearing a bag from the new Chanel Coco Cocoon collection, which comes-out next month, and is featured in the Lily Allen Chanel ads (Allen is the face of the new Coco Cocoon handbag line).

The safest bag in the tents this week is Chanel. Followed very closely by Hermes which Rachel Zoe opted for at every show (black 35 Birkin). Nobody can be offended and it is beyond politics when you have on a true classic. Or you just avoid the whole thing by leaving your bag in the car like Anna Win...

Rate Agyness Deyn's Katherine Fleming Kate Shoulder Bag: Snob or Slob?

Original at The Bag Snob external link    Fri, Sep 11

I've never understood the Agyness Deyn obsession (though I have to say I loved her in the JPG Madame Perfume commercial). I know many people like her stereotypical "downtown,"   casual style, but something about it seems so calculated to me -- I refuse to believe that, that mismatched out...
