Check Out Givenchy’s Summer 2014 Bags

Jan 29, 2014 by Amanda Mull

Like Celine, Givenchy names its seasonal collection a little bit differently than most. Givenchy Summer 2014 is actually the main cluster of bags that the French brand will be releasing for the season, and if you’re a little tired of that omnipresent Givenchy floral (although I’m not), you’ll be glad to find that this line … Read more

Outfit of the Week: Lydia Deetz Goes to the Beach

Jan 29, 2014 by Amanda Mull

If I had a white flag, I’d wave it. I’m done with winter even if winter isn’t done with me. I thought that picking out an ideal beach look for the vacation that I’m going on in my head might be a good way to alleviate some of the stress associated with knowing that I’m … Read more

The MICHAEL Michael Kors Selma Gets a Summer Update

Jan 29, 2014 by Amanda Mull

In case you thought that perhaps the MICHAEL Michael Kors Selma Tote juggernaut could be stopped, we are here this morning to prove you wrong. The bag, which continues to fly off the shelf in its most sought-after colors, is making a reappearance for the impending warm weather in a host of half-canvas, half-leather iterations … Read more

Erin Andrews Heads to the Super Bowl with Both Celine and Saint Laurent Bags

Jan 28, 2014 by Emily Anderson

Fox Sports football personality Erin Andrews was recently spotted heading from LAX to JFK for the impending Super Bowl festivities. As you can see, she’s overloaded with not just a Celine Luggage Tote, but also a Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Tote, which means her airport handbag game is about as tight as it gets. … Read more

RHOBH: “Are those real? Are you real?”

Jan 28, 2014Jan 28, 2014 by Amanda Mull

Last night’s episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was fairly boring in the way that Real Housewives tends to get boring every few weeks: the season’s initial round of conflicts has been more or less resolved, cast members who are good at stirring the pot were mostly absent and Carlton’s attempt at an Eyes … Read more

The Best Red Carpet Handbags of the 2014 Grammy Awards

Jan 28, 2014 by Amanda Mull

The Grammys are always pretty weird, and the 2014 Grammy Awards followed proudly in that tradition. (Kendrick Lamar with Imagine Dragons as a backing band? Sure, why not?) Along with everything else, the stars’ (the ones who bothered to show up and walk the carpet, anyway) handbag choices weren’t exactly in line with what we’ve … Read more

Kotur Solves the Pesky Evening Bag-iPhone Problem

Jan 28, 2014 by Amanda Mull

Awards season always puts clutches on our mind, and when it comes to selecting a little evening bag, we always have the same problem: wedging a phone into a box clutch in a way that also accommodates our keys, wallet and lipstick. Getting my phone in there at all is difficult, especially when it has … Read more

Keyshia Cole Carries Bright VBH Ostrich

Jan 27, 2014 by Emily Anderson

R&B singer Keyshia Cole was spotted exiting club 1OAK in West Hollywood with an eye-popping pink VBH Ostrich Brera Bag. The Italian-made Brera bag is made of real, full quill ostrich skin, not embossed leather, which explains the fairly dizzying price tag. (Even so, we’re big fans of VBH’s latest line of exotic bags.) If … Read more

The International Edit – January 27

Jan 27, 2014 by Amanda Mull

Welcome to the very first edition of The International Edit, where we’ll be shopping on behalf of our non-American customers at some of the best overseas retailers that these here Internets have to offer. Our regular coverage tends to be US-centric because of our location in New York City, but we wanted to give some love both to our international readers and the online retailers that specialize in serving them. If you’re in the US, you might still want to take a look – these stores all ship to our shores, and non-American retailers often offer brands and pieces that are harder to find in the US. This week, our favorite bags, shoes and accessories come from MyTheresa, Browns and My-Wardrobe.

Man Bag Monday: The Givenchy L.C. 24H Bag

Jan 27, 2014 by Amanda Mull

Although menswear’s reach is expanding rapidly, I rarely find myself wishing I could hop to the other side of the gender aisle to experiment; women’s fashion is just a lot more fun. The Givenchy L.C. 24H Bag is the rare piece that makes its women’s equivalent, the Givenchy Lucrezia Bag, look bad by comparison. I … Read more
