Jimmy Choo’s Riki metallic suede tote

I have blogged before about how much I like the metallic bags of the season. They are so fun and fresh! Although the metallic look is probably not a look that I could place in my closet and call a classic, its surely a look to flirt with.

This Jimmy Choo bag intrigued me while  surfing on the web lately. Target is featuring several trendy metallic bags this season- there are plenty of affordable options as well

Hayden Bag, Chiara Bag: Dooney & Bourke

January 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

Hayden’s Dooney & Bourke bag is so obviously delicious I don’t think I need to explain at all. Just take a look… Candy apple red, soft and supple leather yet shiny… it would attract any woman, man, or child’s attention, just for different reasons.

After looking at Dooney & Bourke’s site I have to say I liked the Chiara bag, although this was really the only other bag I found interesting.

Hot air balloon ride… in a Marni Medium Balloon Tote

Marni Medium balloon tote

This bag caught my eye while I was searching through purses, looking for something else. I love the textured look of the leather… I want to feel it! The bright shiny color makes me feel like a kid in a candy shop. The patches are "chocolate" colored. The interior of the bag is lined in taupe. This bag looks perfect for lugging a lot of stuff around. My bag is always full! Of course I am sure that the bag would look just as great on the arm of a more conservative consumer- one who doesn’t stuff all her stuff to bring with her like me!

Plaited Metallic Handbags by Anya Hindmarch

January 13th, 2008 · No Comments

Doesn’t "plaited" mean braided? These bags are to die for. I could do without Anya’s bow, although the shape of the bow successfully breaks up a design that otherwise would be monotonous. I love this purse… it looks fit for a princess. The bags are made out of leather and are woven… excellent workmanship. The first bag is lined in suede and has an additional compartment interiorly. Its difficult to see in these pictures, but the first bag has a gold tone. The bag is priced at a little over  1k.

Metallic Python Bag by Oscar de la Renta

January 12th, 2008 · No Comments

I am falling in love with the metallic snakeskin bags of the season. I gasped as soon as I spotted this treasure.

Although it is far out of my price range I couldn’t help but blog about it so I can gaze at its beauty anytime. This fabulous bag is real python snakeskin. The skin is a metallic gold-champagne color. The hardware is gold and the buckles are tortoiseshell. The darker leather that you see on the top where you close the purse covering the gold hardware in places is lizard leather. Talk about exotic. The interior of this luscious purse is lined with twill. The bag’s style is a doctor bag… which is kind of weird, although I don’t mind the overall look of the “doctor” style. Oh well… at one time I wanted to be a doctor. The bag is 16 x 13 x 5. This bag can be found at http://www.vivre.com. This bag was priced at $3,895.00 but now is only $1,947.50!
