Prada Nylon Passamentry Tote

While I am vacationing in Europe, my family is out of power in South Florida after Hurricane Katrina hit. I am sure they are fine, but I feel kind of bad- although none of that is in my power. So I woke up a little worried/annoyed with the news of the Hurricane (although it was … Read more

Oakley Netting Bag

Long time no action in the athletic department here at the Purse Blog. What a shame, since there is so many sporty & chic, yet tough and indestructible bags for all sorts of exercising. Whether it’d be the daily (or occasional) trip to the gym, or rock climbing on the weekends with the lady friends, … Read more

Chanel Precious Symbols

Chanel is exclusive. We all know that is a fact. But they are actually quite exclusive on the internet as well. The website is done well, but there are no prices or detailed descriptions. That is why when it comes to Chanel, Vlad and I go to our friend Rhiannon. Rhiannon is a part time … Read more

Gucci Evening Frame Bag

While looking at this bag, Vlad’s first comment was, “Why is that picture in black and white?” Nice to see that I turned him into such a fashion guru. I had to inform him that the colors were indeed the color the bag was meant to be. I think it’s stunning. The Gucci Evening Frame … Read more

Belen Echandia Model no. 636

I’m not even sure how I got to the site Belen Echandia, but it was somewhere in between my usual morning internet searching. I start every morning off checking out my own blog (as if I don’t know what is on here), then checking out my usual favorites, and all of a sudden I realize … Read more

Kimberly Stewart with Bottega Veneta

‘Who is that?’ you may ask, why it’s Kimberly Stewart (umm the daughter of legend Rod Stewart…). Ya, that should help. That is as meaningful that this girl is for most of us. Some of you may remember her calling Jennifer Aniston “homely” in the July edition of Blender magazine. Actually Stewart had the nerve … Read more

Chloe Silverado Doctor Bag

If I were a doctor, carrying a high end designer’s ‘doctor bag’ is what I would do. Yes, that was partially a joke- so it is ok to laugh. I know that doctor bags don’t mean they are for doctor’s to carry (just clearing the air since I am blond after all), but wouldn’t that … Read more

Yves Saint Laurent Metallic Bow Bag

Yves Saint Laurent Metallic Bow BagSpending this entire month in Europe has been amazing. I’ve seen so many things, gone so many places, understood new cultures, not understood new cultures, spent time with the one I love, and I’ve shopped. Ha. Thought I was going to sound philosophical for a minute didn’t ya? Well as much as the first parts are true, the shopping has been amazing. A few things I have noticed about European women (correct me if I’m wrong or if you see it differently- this is just what I have observed); first of all they portray more elegance in their style than trendy (NONE of them look Boho chic), they seriously wear more Chanel and Dior than I could imagine (I mean elegant suits), they take their dogs into every store (Hermés, Chloé, Gucci, Prada, Chanel, Dior), and they carry themselves so eloquently that sometimes it was actually overwhelming and made me crouch a little at the feeling of wealth and high-class they portrayed. Now- this is not every European woman. This is when I have been shopping (at the high end designer stores) in the big cities. This is from Paris, Munich, Frankfurt, Prague, Rome etc. But these women just knocked me right out of my American socks.

Versace Safety Pin

I’m lost. There are some things designed in this world that just don’t make sense to me. I am not claiming to be the ‘all-knowing’ fashion goddess, but I think I know a little bit about it (ok a lot :-)). But this, this has me really groveling at it. Versace is known for being … Read more
