Change is always good. And Mulberry has undergone a site renovation adding great features and falling snowflakes for the winter season. The snowfall is my favorite, it simply gets me in the Holiday spirit right away (kind of like our Purse Blog Winter Theme).

One very commonly asked question on our Chanel Forum is on the difference between the Chanel Classic Flap and the Chanel Reissue 2.55 bags. I’ve scoured the forums this morning to educate myself, and our readers about the differences between the two. Let me start with a few historical facts on the Reissue.

Vanessa Hudgens Style: Rebecca Minkoff Matinee Bag

Jan 8, 2008Nov 27, 2007 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

The trendy and popular Disney Star was spotted leaving Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf looking sexy with a rouge scarf and handbag. Wouldn’t you know, Vannessa Hudgens is one of many who is head over heels for the Rebecca Minkoff Matinee Bag. The color Vannessa opted for is called wine, which is such a deep sultry color that I am just insanely in love with it! While this Disney star is cute as a button, her ensemble shows that she wants to look sexy; which is achieved by pairing denim and a black top with her sexy reds. I have been a huge fan of the Matinee from the beginning, but I am certain that this exact version, wine with burgundy suede trim, is hands down my favorite! Buy the bag via Rebecca Minkoff online. As for getting this exact color… I don’t know, perhaps you must beg, plead, and sell your red kidney?

**Edit: This is the Matinee not the Morning After. Sorry everyone**

We adored the Lindsay Lohan ad that sported the silver and gold Miu Miu Metallic Patchwork bag. The colorful metallic version may have been too much for many of us to stomach, or use everyday, so I am thrilled to see Miu Miu has released the Miu Miu Patchwork Tote in black leather. The patchwork … Read more

Meet Katherine Kwei

Nov 27, 2007Nov 26, 2007 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

We are thrilled to bring you another exclusive interview with a fabulous handbag designer. Sari Brown from Lux Couture introduced me to Katherine Kwei designs. Sari and I are so intrigued by the delicate knotting technique that makes Katherine Kwei designs stand out. So while in New York City Vlad and I were able to meet Katherine Kwei and her assistant designer, Tiffany Koo (who will be working on a line for Katherine Kwei), and we have not been able to stop raving about her bags since. Do not expect a simple bag from her designs, for her handbags implement a knotting technique that will undoubtedly make her stand out from the rest. We sat down in her show room to talk about her handbag line and get to know the designer behind these fabulous handbags.
