We have arrived at the last Friday of March more determined than ever to welcome spring, and so we shall. This week, regardless of the weather outside, we’ve scoured the PurseForum for signs of warmer days to come. We found an inspiring bag showcase, some tasty treats in the Kitchen, absolutely charming charms, and so much more. Happy Friday!

The greatness of the Gucci Horsebit Shoulder Bag
Lately, my relationship with and love for Gucci has been growing.

Your first look at the bags of Coach Fall 2013 (and our new gallery!)
Actually, we’ve got two exciting things to debut for you today. First, of course, is a preview of the handbags to come in the Coach Fall 2013 collection, which we scoped out last week at Coach world headquarters. The bags are very much in keeping with the brand’s upward trajectory in recent seasons: a strong group of traditional shapes (for fall, think classic satchels and ladylike top-handles), rendered in rich colors and materials ranging from pumpkin calf hair to matte black metal studs. Many of the pieces are simply beautiful, and they’re the kinds of bags that will fit into the wardrobes of a wide variety of women. For the logo lovers, you’ll see some Cs here and there, but most of the bags are in keeping with the industry’s preference for a subtler form of branding.
