For Fall 2017, Alexander Wang Contemplates the Heavy Metal Fanny Pack and Beyond

Feb 14, 2017 by Amanda Mull

Fashion brands have–somewhat inexplicably–been trying to make fanny packs (or, as they’re more diplomatically termed, “belt bags”) cool for years. Part of the rationale makes sense: trend variation is key in order for brands to keep sales up, so it’s in their best interest to try and convince you there’s something you want that isn’t … Read more

Currently Coveting: Bottega Veneta Messenger in Dusty Rose

Feb 14, 2017Feb 14, 2017 by Megs Mahoney Dusil

Long before Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo bestowed their daughter with the name Dusty Rose, the shade was an omnipresent favorite among fashion people, and it’s still is a color of the moment.

These are the Best Bag Looks from #NYFW So Far

Feb 14, 2017Feb 13, 2017 by Kaitlin Serio

New York Fashion Week kicked off last Thursday with a figurative bang thanks to Mother Nature. That bang came in the form of a huge winter storm that pummeled the East Coast with ice, wind and snow.

Feb 13, 2017 by Amanda Mull

Although we love to carefully examine what’s going on at the most rarified strata of the luxury industry, four figures is far from the only place you’ll find luxe, functional, totally covetable handbags. As many of you already know, there are plenty to be had in the low-to-mid three figures, and every season, we like … Read more

Last Week, Celebs Were on the Move with Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Coach

Mar 9, 2017Feb 13, 2017 by Emily Anderson

Only half of these celebs seemed to have any time to spare for paparazzi (regardless of how well they dressed for the viewing public), but luckily paps got some decent snaps of their beautiful new bags as they whizzed by. Louis Vuitton is certainly the celeb favorite of this round, especially among the LA crowd, … Read more

PurseBlog Eats: Oficina 1M

Feb 11, 2017Feb 11, 2017 by Kaitlin Serio

It’s no secret that at PurseBlog, we love fashion–it comes with the territory. Fashion is pretty much a way of life for us, an obsession, a one-true-love kinda deal.

Earlier this week, I found out I was getting a sizable tax refund for the first time in years, and naturally, that got my mind churning about what I should do with it. All in savings? Splurge a little bit? Splurge a lot? I’ve bought some new bedding, but here’s the real question: am I … Read more

Feb 10, 2017 by Emily Anderson

Earlier this week, Catherine Zeta-Jones gave us a quick tour of her personal walk-in closet via Instagram, and it’s just as dazzling as you might imagine. There’s even a special section reserved just for her Hermès scarves, and a surprising amount of Chanel bags. This is mostly surprising because CZJ is even more of a … Read more

One of the most buzzed about shows during New York Fashion Week may not be from a brand you know well, but it’s from a brand you should know.
