This Week, Celebs Like the Pricey Birkins, Pale Pink and Louis Vuitton

Apr 20, 2016 by Emily Anderson

Celebs are always fond of their Birkins, and that certainly didn’t change this week, but we have something far more surprising in this celebrity handbag roundup: a bag that retails for under $150.

Introducing the Brand New Bottega Veneta Bucket Bag

Apr 19, 2016 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

A sure fire way to make me feel like I’ve been doing this for a really long time, is realizing that my first Bottega Veneta bag I bought after I started PurseBlog was in 2007 on a trip to Venice, Italy.

18 Beautiful Spring iPhone Cases (Because We Know You Always Have Your Phone in Your Hand)

Apr 18, 2016 by Amanda Mull

I think of my handbags as the accessory that I use the most, but in reality, that’s not even close to true: I interact with my bag several times a day, but I interact with my phone case almost constantly. Even casual friends could probably pick it out of a lineup because it shows up … Read more

This Week, A Fendi Mini Has Its Moment Right Alongside A Certain Celeb’s Enormous Engagement Ring

Apr 15, 2016 by Emily Anderson

We have long admired Miranda Kerr because few celebs (yes, even supermodels) make A-list style look so effortless.
