Fendi Borderline Clutch

Mar 14, 2008 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

Fendi Borderline Clutch The shape of this clutch is one of my favorite designs; effortless, timeless, and beautiful. We spoke about three other versions of this Fendi Clutch, which got mixed reviews. Just in for spring, the Fendi Borderline Clutch gives off a roaring 20’s vibe with the fringe and the perfect pop of color … Read more

Prada Nappa Mini Clutch

Mar 13, 2008 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

Prada Nappa Mini Clutch I have been a long time fan of Prada bags, but as of recently have not been completely and totally drawn into any of their bags (ok, we all know I loved the Prada Fairy bag but after the bleeding debacle I am somewhat over it). There is something about a … Read more

Chloe Anoushka Bag

Mar 13, 2008Mar 13, 2008 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

I think it is finally safe for any siblings of the Chloe Paddington. No one wants to live in the shadow, and that includes handbags within their own families. I love my Paddington, but I am ready to love again from the house of Chloe. A new and modern bag, the Chloe Anoushka Bag is different and stands out. Some may find it to look sloppy, but I find it artistic with a bit of a punk edge. The glossy leather is paired with silver hardware, while the focal point of the bag are the two separate zip fastenings secured together with an oversized ring on the front. It appears as if the bag criss-crosses across itself, which is such a definitively chic touch. One of my other favorite parts of the bag is the knotted shoulder strap. It is subtle yet catches the eye and draws you in. This bag is perfect for the big city gal who is always up with the styles and always pulling off casual chic effortlessly (like Rachel Bilson!). Buy through Net A Porter for $1,560.

Kara Ross Verus Clutch

Mar 12, 2008 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

I found it shocking that some of you were not drooling with me over my introduction of Kara Ross handbags. Sure, her bags are funky and colorful, but they are so appealing and perfect for you to go daring when wearing your clutches. The spring it is all about bright and bold colors, which is precisely what Kara Ross does best. But since I already covered many of the bright bags, it is time for me to cover a more neutral bag from this very talented designer. Kara Ross focuses on exotic skins and semi-precious stones and has implemented beige stingray with a white quartz in the Kara Ross Verus Stingray Clutch. This clutch is able to be worn every season, for many years to come, as it is the perfect wearable neutral. While I agree your handbag should say something about you, it is evening bags that really catch my attention. An evening bag can dress up and change an outfit in a snap, and this clutch will deliver. There is gold hardware and a chain strap. The Verus Clutch will be available later this month in Neiman Marcus stores and you can check for more information at Kara Ross online. The price is $2,850.

Prada Fairy Bag Bleeds

Mar 12, 2008Mar 12, 2008 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

We have covered the Prada Fairy Bag ad nauseum, but there is a piece of this story that must not be left out. Who would have known that artist James Jean would have added his art to a bag that landed Prada in the wait list of 3 months “it” bag of the season. Unfortunately for both Prada and James Jean, the bag will not only hold the remembrance of it being one of the most talked about handbags for 2008 but also having a horrible bleeding problem. That is right, the ink on the Prada Fairy bags is bleeding. As this issue unfolds, various members of tPF have come forward giving information, pictures, and evidence of their Fairy Bag’s print bleeding if water touches it.
