As we move on into what we’re hoping will be a warmer April, it’s time to take one last look back at what transpired in the handbag world in March 2015. From street style in Paris and Milan to an investigation into price increases, there’s some great stuff you might have missed along the way. Below, checkout the five posts that our readers couldn’t get enough of this month.

17 Cute Gym Bags to Complement Your Spring Workouts
People start to get very nervous about “bathing suit season” when the weather starts to turn warm. I think you are all perfect little angel babies just like you are, of course, and if the spring thaw inspires you to leave your houses and move your bodies, then more power to you. The thing about … Read more

It’s Spring, so Celeb Bag Selections Are Shrinking (& Becoming More Amphibious?)
When the weather starts to warm up, the minis start to come out in force. This is my third year writing for PurseBlog, and I’m still stumped as to why this is the pattern. Do we really carry that much less stuff in the spring? We can finally toss out that one giant bottle of winter moisturizer, so we decide to downsize to a mini until August? It’s a puzzle. In other news, select stars will not stop carrying Chanel, and they refuse to apologize.
20 Pale Polishes to Put Spring 2015 at Your Fingertips
When I wrote about pastel spring bags last week, you guys were pretty much in agreement–the colors are just so nice to look at, so clean and feminine. An expensive, ultra-light purchase isn’t the best avenue for everyone, though, especially if you tend to be hard on your bags or wear a lot of black. Both of those things describe me, so instead of a bag, I derive great pleasure from a pastel manicure.
The Ultimate Bag Guide: The Givenchy Antigona Bag
The Givenchy Antigona is one of those bags that continues to gain popularity at a point in its life cycle when any other bag would be starting to fizzle out as consumers move on to other things, and that’s how you know it’s one of the few truly exceptional pieces out there right now. That … Read more

Scandal Season 4, Episode 17: “I can’t just get divorced like those girls from Holyoke.”
Let’s cut right to the chase. Last night’s episode of Scandal was not my favorite of all time, but it was necessary, and now it is over and we can all move on to whatever logic-defying, addictively watchable way we’re going to end this season.
Louis Vuitton’s Bags Hit the High Seas for The Spirit of Travel Spring 2015 Campaign
When it’s still this cold at the end of March, it’s impossible not to start thinking about travel to places on the globe where we can get some relief. In that sense, the Louis Vuitton The Spirit of Travel Spring 2015 campaign is perfectly timed–who wouldn’t want to look at images of models, beautiful bags in hand, frolicking in front of perfectly turquoise seas in the French West Indes?

Hermès & Chanel Continue to Dominate the Celeb Bagosphere with Few Challengers
The stars aren’t exactly blowing me away with their bag choices this week, but there are still a few celeb picks worth peeping at in this bag roundup, including a brand new Chanel bag that we’ve only seen on the arm of a celeb once before. (Hint: it’s not a Chanel Boy Bag) Celebs are still falling back on old favorites, some of which are properly vintage, some of which are just a few seasons old. Spring 2015 bags have been in stores for a few weeks now though, so maybe we’ll see a little more variety in next week’s batch of bags.
