Kelly Osbourne carries a curiously colored Chanel

Feb 7, 2013Feb 7, 2013 by Emily Anderson

Here’s the ever-eccentric Kelly Osbourne, looking a tad like a 90s cartoon superhero taking a personal call. (I mean that in the best way possible, Kelly. Respect.) She’s headed into The Today Show carrying a Chanel Classic Flap in a finish that we’re going to refer to as pearlized seafoam. Her dramatic eyewear comes courtesy … Read more

PurseBlog Asks: What bag would you love to carry on Valentine’s Day?

Feb 7, 2013Feb 7, 2013 by Amanda Mull

If you’re a longtime PurseBlog reader, you may have already put this together yourself, but my sense of style is not particularly girly.

Feb 6, 2013 by Emily Anderson

Here’s Jenny McCarthy in NYC carrying an eye-popping bright blue Hermes Jypsiere Bag. The Jypsiere is a comparatively new Hermes design, introduced only a couple of years ago.

Lanvin focuses on handbags for Spring 2013

Feb 6, 2013 by Amanda Mull

Lanvin’s bag line has already been a bit of a mystery to me. With the beloved Alber Elbaz at the helm and such a strong place within the industry, why doesn’t Lanvin do more with bags? The opportunities are endless, but the brand’s efforts have always seemed a bit limited – nice, but not as … Read more
