We spend every season anticipating the two times per year when designer handbags go on sale en masse, and it’s finally here! Because dozens of retailers just put hundreds of bags each on their sale pages and that can get a little overwhelming, we’ve found the biggest sales to get you started on the road … Read more
We say it every season, but that’s because it’s so ceaselessly true: Bottega Veneta is not here to reinvent the wheel or themselves, it’s just here to make beautiful, luxurious, impeccably crafted leather bags that very much look like they were made by Bottega Veneta. There’s no gimmickry or stunts, just an old world sense … Read more

Hermès is the hands-down favorite of the Cannes-bound, including a whole slew of supermodels. The Birkin, specifically, is the favorite, though other styles were represented. Though not everyone who opted for a Birkin was headed to France this week. Some of them were just headed to the other side of Beverly Hills to drop some … Read more
It’s the most wonderful time of year! No, not the holidays (although those are great), but the event all true shopping fiends have been waiting for: SALE SEASON.

The City Knot is part of Bottega Veneta’s Summer 2017 collection, which culminates the brand’s 50th Anniversary year. I was truly smitten, and I … Read more
Rarely do I think handbags are discontinued too quickly. For most brands, debuting a consumer-friendly bag is a process that doesn’t pay off immediately, but instead, over the course of season as interest picks up among people who may not pay close attention to seasonal launches or who need some time for a bag to … Read more
If you read a lot of websites that deal with women, aesthetics and Internet culture (and especially with the intersection of those three things), then you’re probably well familiar with the concept of Millennial Pink. If you don’t, I’m guessing the whole thing sounds a little suspect to you (how can a generation claim a … Read more
Lisa Vanderpump is an impressive celebrity figure: restauranteur, reality stalwart, Editor-in-Chief of Beverly Hills Lifestyle Magazine, lover of impossibly fluffy dogs. She also owns an impressive assortment of Chanel bags, and it’s high time we paid homage. And, because she acquires new bags at a very brisk pace, we threw in a few other recent … Read more
Whenever a big shift happens in a major designer’s creative leadership, I watch closely for the next big runway bag the brand debuts. It often tells you a lot about what the new management is thinking when it comes to the direction of the brand’s accessories because runways are the splashiest way to signal a … Read more
The annual celebrity Cannes crawl has begun. Stars who merely exist to walk red carpets in perpetuity all had ample paparazzi coverage at the Nice airport this week, as did everyone who came and went from the afterparty for Sean Combs’ documentary: Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop: A Bad Boy Story. Was it the hottest documentary … Read more
