Spring 2014 deliveries will be in stores before you know it (seriously, they’ll be starting by the end of the holidays, which means we have only weeks to wait), and that means it’s time to start planning how our seasonal purchases are going to go once the sale-season craziness ends. We’re lucky enough to be able to check in on the upcoming collections from our favorite designers in person, and today we’re excited to bring you an exclusive preview of all the bags you can expect to see from Rebecca Minkoff Spring 2014.

PurseForum Roundup – November 22
It’s Friday, and that means it is time for another edition of the PurseForum Roundup, our weekly trip to bring you the best conversations, reveals and surprises from our own forum. This week, we look at some shoes, jewelry, pets and more.
AnnaSophia Robb Carries Fendi Yet Again to Film “The Carrie Diaries”
The costume department behind The Carrie Diaries is unarguably one of the best on TV, but it does occasionally take liberties with its 1980s timeline. Here’s AnnaSophia Robb, filming exterior shots for The show in NYC, carrying yet another eye-popping Fendi Baguette. This time it’s the Fendi Multicolored Mosaic Baguette Bag, which features colorful glass … Read more
Packing for the Holidays in 15 Easy GIF Steps
I hate traveling. More accurately, I hate getting to places; once I’m there, I love it. I was not alive for the days when air travel was a glamorous and refined experience, but based on the vaguely bus station-like feel it has now, I have a hard time believing that those days ever even existed. … Read more
The Best Bag Deals for the Weekend of November 22
Bag deals are so much fun this time of year. While we all anticipate the arrival of Black Friday and its attendant shopping bonanza, department stores and brands alike have started quietly putting things on sale in anticipation of the festivities, so there are great deals to be had but with far less competition than you’ll get with post-Thanksgiving markdowns. That means that today’s Bag Deals roundup is a bit lengthier than normal – we just couldn’t winnow the pool down to our usual number. Enjoy, and have a very fancy Friday.
Newcomer Dillon Des Pres Designs Exclusive iPad Clutch for Moda Operandi
Finding a new designer is always exciting, especially when you consider the tight hold some big brands have on the handbag market. Earlier this month, I was introduced to Dillon Des Pres. When I saw his line, I felt a freshness that I always yearn for; the designs are simple and natural, with a beautifully … Read more
Jennifer Garner Uses a Givenchy Antigona as a Baby Bag
Jennifer Garner was recently seen shopping at Kidville in LA with her adorable son Samuel Affleck (who is startlingly blond, for a kid with two very brunette parents). She’s carrying a Givenchy Antigona Bag with a lizard-embossed finish that is loaded up with kiddie stuff to the point of losing its signature shape. You can … Read more
#PBWIMB Instagram Roundup – November 21st
Despite the fact that we don’t personally know most of you guys, we can tell a lot about you from the contents of your purses. Is that a saying, or did we just make that up? Either way, we certainly think it’s true – you can separate a minimalist from a prepared-for-any-situation mom on the go with a single glance at a handbag’s contents. No matter which category you fall into (perhaps you’re somewhere in the middle), we always love taking a look inside your designer handbags.

Check Out the Incredible Details on These Beaded Chanel Bags
In general, when we look at bags, we look at the big picture: how a bag looks, feels and functions as a whole unit. After all, that’s how women use their bags, and even a great detail or two can’t make up for a bag that has other serious shortcomings. That’s why we love it … Read more
The Many Bags of Rita Ora
Fashion loves Rita Ora, and the burgeoning British pop star seems to love fashion right back. Ora’s Rihanna-esque personal style perfectly straddles the divide between streetwear and luxury that the industry is exploring with gusto at the moment, which makes her exactly the kind of celebrity on whom brands want to see their clothes. One … Read more
Best Bet: RED Valentino Embroidered Quilted Shoulder Bag
When I first laid eyes on the RED Valentino Embroidered Quilted Shoulder Bag, I felt confused. Surely the brand was marked incorrectly; this design has every bit as much detailing as you’d expect from a full-fledged Valentino bag, and it has the same refined, utterly ladylike look. I felt even more confused when I saw … Read more
Lily Allen Trades Chanel Bags for Givenchy Exotics
Here’s UK singer/songwriter Lily Allen, heading in to do some press for her snarky, satirical new single “Hard Out Here” on BBC Radio 1. She’s carrying a Givenchy Mini Lucrezia Snakeskin Duffel Bag in lieu of her usual Chanel picks and wearing the Christian Louboutin Leopard Daffodile Pumps. You can get Lily’s bag in “Pearl … Read more
