Ut-oh. I absolutely positively love this clutch. And when you look at it, it is nothing out of the ordinary. Simple shape and simple design. So simple yet so lovely. The exotic eel skin stands out beautifully in bright fuchsia. I want it. Sometimes what we love and desire does not make sense, even to us, and that is precisely how I feel about the Givenchy Elene Eel Clutch.

I know what you are thinking. Too plain. But there is a picture below that may change your mind.

Why, oh why, can’t the Lanvin Cabas Satin Logo Tote be leather? And not logo’d?

Everyone at Luna Boston loves a good party, and a couple weeks ago was no exception. The Diane von Furstenberg event was one of the biggest we’ve ever had – there was a line around the block to get in before the doors even opened! Amanda and Jennifer started setting up for the event at 9am and didn’t stop until 10 minutes before the event started, when they finally had time to get ready!

For those of you that weren’t able to attend, we held the event in a penthouse suite at the FP3 condominiums in the Fort Point section of Boston. I felt like a rockstar at this place – it has 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a terrace, and a roof deck! (And it’s on the market for a cool $2.5 mil if you’re interested!) Hillary France, our representative from the Diane von Furstenberg showroom, was there to help us show the Fall collection to attendees. (Did we mention that Hillary looks like a goddess? Tall with long, bright red hair, looks awesome in everything she wears… Basically, she’s perfect. We’re jealous. But I digress.)

Christian Louboutin continues to make a name for himself in the handbag world. The Christian Louboutin Loubistuds Clutch wowed us when we first viewed it. The perfect edginess was added to make that clutch a contender and a clutch that truly would amp up your night time outfits. The problem with that clutch was the price. Just over $1500, that is one pricey clutch.

I think I’m in love.

Ever see a handbag you like, and then realize it has one thing so egregiously, terribly wrong with it that it almost makes you palpably upset? Like you were so close to finding a handbag oasis in the desert, and then it turns out that, by a single cruel twist of fate, that it was all just a mirage?

Yeah, I kind of feel like that about the Marc Jacobs Frame Wallet Sequined Purse.

We brought you information on the Chanel Coco Cocoon line featuring Lily Allen earlier this month. If you have a registered email address with Chanel, you can access the Chanel Coco Cocoon website and be the first to own a piece of the line.

Now we see more of this line, which includes handbags, travel bags, and small leather goods. Prices start around $400 in the small leather goods for a lambskin keycase and go up exponentially for the handbags and travel bags. The Chanel Coco Cocoon line offers nylon and lambskin on most of the bags which have a puffy finish, think fluffy down jacket for skiing. The line is a departure from classic expectations of the brand. But the casual finish and high ticket prices for the products, including the nylon, has this line a miss on our list.

While I’ve always been a fan of all things Michael Kors, my love has been re-energized by the drop dead gorgeous MK Gown Debra Messing wore to the 2009 Emmy Award show the other night. This year’s Emmys was jam packed with gorgeous gowns, yet it is the MK gown I can’t stop thinking about.

So, as I am obsessing over the gown, I am now also re-obsessing over his handbags. I’ve been busy trying to pick out my new Michael Kors bag for the past 36 hours and I don’t even know where to start… so many to choose from.

Despite Mother Nature’s best attempt to wash me away in a great flood yesterday (seriously, if you see a girl with a bathrobe and a laptop being swept away on the news, that’s me, SEND HELP), I have survived the torrential rains in this part of the country to bring you a comprehensive review of last night’s Gossip Girl shenanigans.

And what would a Biblical plague in real life be without one to match it on the Upper East Side: Georgina is BA-ACK! And she’s 100% less Jesus-y than she was last season, but we all knew that that was just a clever ruse, didn’t we?

But actually, we’re no longer on the Upper East Side at all – the show has gone downtown to follow our gaggle to college at (mostly) NYU. And as anyone who’s been to college knows, the first few days are bewildering enough to give anyone the look that Chace Crawford gets when the show’s plot gets too complicated for him.

The ridiculous bags are always my favorite, be they good or bad in the long run. I’ve always thought it a greater sin to be boring than to be over-the-top, and sometimes great style is what happens when you get right on the line between just enough and too much.

The Marc Jacobs Wrath Studded Bag is somewhere circa that line, although I’m not sure what side it’s on. But I am sure that I love it, in spite (or maybe because) of its wealth of personality.
