In our weekly look at a painfully unaffordable yet highly tempting accessory we bring you this smooth and stylish black leather shoulder bag by Lanvin. Today’s house-remortgager is a fairly unusual, lengthened shape, with the Lanvin’s signature decorative chain and ribbon.

You may not have an iPad or the most up-to-date netbook on the market, but with a cover like this, does it really matter what’s underneath? The sleek and stylish lipstick print case from Marc Jacobs is the hottest geek accessory out there at the moment, and we’re loving it in black and gold print, as pictured above.
Peaches and cream is the feel-good combination of the summer, and there’s so many ways to accessorise with these gentle and sugary shades. We picked out just three of the loveliest pastel pieces out there to keep you smiling while the sun shines.

We are extremely excited to be sharing this video with you not only because it has been eagerly awaited, but also because of the copious amount of work it took to turn this collaboration from idea to reality.

We do love Cup of Sea , and this fabulously retro set of ‘sandwich’ rings is one of our favourite pieces from this quirky range of hand-made acrylic jewellery. As with most of their pieces, the rings need to be worn all together to create the full effect; in this case a juicy looking sarnie made from cheese, bread and even a miniature tomato.

Yesterday Amanda asked you all if you think Christian Louboutin should stick to shoes . I personally do not think he needs to, he has released some amazing bags. The problem is that some other bags have been not so amazing, bordering on downright confusing

Is it me, or does this bag remind you just a little too much of a beehive? It’s either that or a tea cosy, and I’m not sure which is worse. A hive can look stylish enough when made by Judith Leiber, but this one is made of wool, and doesn’t have quite the same haute couture appeal…
Fendi seem to be having a bit of a fashion ‘moment’, with plenty of stars seen out and about with their bags and accessories in tow. Earlier in the week it was Milla Jovovich flashing the Fendi , and Katherine Heigl and Catherine Zeta Jones are also known to be fans
Right now there are a few things I know for certain: 1) Vlad and I just spent a week in the middle of nowhere Ohio for a family reunion with zero internet access. It was both delightful and frightful, 2) I am still obsessed with the Proenza Schouler PS1 , and 3) Amanda is going to be really mad to see this post with an Ohio State logo. You see, Amanda and I are always going back and forth about college football teams.

Christian Louboutin has been far more successful with shoes than he has been with bags, and I’m having a hard time figuring out exactly why that is. Surely the design processes for each is decidedly differently, but for a brand with as many resources and as much style as Louboutin’s, I would expect better results.

A evening bag is hard to find, and it’s even harder to find at a reasonable price. Most people won’t use a tiny clutch multiple times a day like they might use a shoulder bag or tote, so spending big bucks for a glittery little minaudiere usually isn’t a particularly palatable option

I’m always a tad bit embarrassed when I can’t identify a bag. I spend 40-plus hours a week contemplating purses, and at a certain point, I feel like I’ve seen almost every handbag that the fashion world has to offer. Just when I get comfortable in that feeling, some handbag always comes along to knock me off my high horse

As far as I can tell, Lanvin no longer produces the Lanvin Cabas Satin Logo Tote . For some of you that’s not exactly a problem, but if you wanted one and now find yourself without the opportunity to buy one, Kate Spade is here to help. And by “here to help,” I mean “here to make a very similar bag.” The Kate Spade Seraphine Nylon Bow Tote is made of a different material and doesn’t have the slouchy charm of the Lanvin version, but for a much lower price and a brand with a very structured aesthetic, that’s to be expected

This little cutout handle clutch is the inspiration for many new purses to come! I wanted to make a cute, sophisticated looking clutch for days when I just needed to carry a few things in a really adorable purse! This is also the entrance of snaps! There is a snap closure at the top of the bag just under the bow which keeps the purse closed tightly. I designed this clutch to open a little extra on the sides to allow for wider things to be kept inside. There is also a small magnetic closure pocket on the inside for anything that needs to be tucked away. Then, the outside bow just adds a little extra touch of cuteness! The size on this bag could vary greatly depending on the buy’s wishes. The sides of this clutch are just a little bit smaller than the side of my regular handbags. Next, I am considering making this clutch in all black with a stripe of color, probably the silver, for an elegant evening accessory. This slideshow requires JavaScript.

I’ll go ahead and answer my own question: that’s definitely a disembodied head. Is the rest of the body inside the bag? Is this sort of like the medieval stocks, where you’ve got a head poking out on one side and the rest of the body is attached on the other
