PurseForum Roundup: June 21
Welcome to the PurseForum Roundup! For most of us, summer is well underway, and we are seeing lots of fresh colors and summery outfits across the PurseForum. This week, we stop in Health and Fitness for some exercise motivation, look at some pretty shoes, and get very surprised by some bargain hunters!
Hilary Duff Switches Her Baby Bag to Chanel
Here’s mama extraordinaire Hilary Duff toting her Chanel Linen Logo Tote and her baby boy Luca to Mommy and Me class in LA. Stars, they’re just like us? Hilary has swapped out the diaper bag for designer selections like this before – check out her Goyard “diaper bag” of several months ago. She’s generally a … Read more
Coming soon… PurseBlog’s LUISAVIAROMA Style Lab
As you’ve probably seen, Vlad and I were in Florence with LUISAVIAROMA for its 7th annual Firenze4Ever event. One of the main parts of the exciting few days is having the chance to style our own looks on a model. We really had fun with it and put together three different looks with a feature … Read more
The Best Bag Deals of the Weekend of June 21
To celebrate yet another beautiful start to a summer weekend, we’ve scoured the Internet to find you some red hot (both literally and figuratively) handbag deals to start things off on just the right note. From bright orange and red, to leopard print, to snakeskins real and faux alike, these bags are sure to lift your spirits and perhaps lower your bank balance. It’s worth it, though, because bag deals like we’re having right now don’t come along ever day. If you prefer or a more traditional approach to your handbag collection, we’ve included a few year-round classics as well.
Valentino Rockstud Rouge takes Italy
You haven’t seen me around for a while, and that’s because I am having a love affair with Italy. Vlad and I have been here for about a week, and everytime I come back, I fall in love even more deeply. There is a certain magic that comes to life when you wander the streets … Read more
Liev Schreiber Makes His Mulberry Man Bag Look Good
Here’s actor Liev Schreiber carrying an exceptionally handsome Mulberry Brynmore Messenger Bag in NYC. It looks like he’s giving someone directions in the West Village, and because West Village is the most confusing neighborhood in New York, that makes perfect sense. Liev’s Mulberry Brynmore bag was part of the brand’s Mulberry for Apple Collection, a … Read more
The Fendi 2Jours Fur Runway Totes Have Landed
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Don’t sleep on Fendi. Karl Lagerfeld’s creative direction at Chanel may get more media attention, but the things he’s been doing with color, texture and tech-inspired fabrications and textiles at Fendi for the past few seasons are, at their best, a fascinating look at the technicolor … Read more
Why Do People Keep Covering Their Hermes Birkins with Graffiti?
Twice is a coincidence, but three times is a trend, so now that we’ve found a fourth Hermes Birkin covered in graffiti, I feel pretty comfortable saying that defiling the iconic handbag with pain, markers and pens is officially a thing. The latest graffiti’d Birkin comes courtesy of street-art duo Mint & Serf, also known … Read more
The Many Bags of Gwyneth Paltrow
I don’t remember exactly when I shifted from hating Gwyneth Paltrow to absolutely loving her, but it’s a relatively new phenomenon. I had always been annoyed by her macrobiotic proselytizing and her Tracy Anderson workout-endorsing and her general little-miss-perfect-ness, until one day, it finally occurred to me: that’s actually who Gwyneth Paltrow is. She’s just being herself, despite the fact that it annoys a lot of people and gets her some bad press and causes people to say nasty things about her on the Internet. She just keeps on being Gwyneth, even though it would likely pay dividends for her to pretend to be some kind of self-effacing, less-than-Gwyneth version of herself who eats gluten and cares about finding a good deal on a pair of shoes. Once I realized that, my love for her was instant.
NCLA Includes a Cute Little Bag With Its Awesome Nail Wraps
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably noticed that fancy-schmancy nail art is a huge trend. The only problem with nail art, of course, is that it’s expensive and time-consuming to have done at a salon and you’re probably not coordinated enough to do it yourself. That’s where pre-decorated nail art stickers become … Read more
Miranda Kerr Looks Chic and Casual With a Balmain Bag
Here’s the perpetually flawless Miranda Kerr, walking around NYC with her gray calfskin suede Balmain x Aurelie Bidermann Pierre Bag. Aurelie Bidermann is a Parisian jewelry designer, and the two brands’ collab on this bag has yielded what is without a doubt Balmain’s most popular handbag ever. The Pierre seems to be making it into … Read more
