The Best Bags of New York Fashion Week Day 6

Hmmm, I might need to locate that Celine Python Phantom Luggage tote! I’m salivating!

Drooling over the Chanel Boy bag… but it’s too large for the lady carrying it. It overpowers her. (And it would be too large for me, too, but I know it, and I’d buy it in a smaller size. I mean, if you’re gonna spend that kind of money…)

Can anyone tell me if the Tory Burch 797 satchel above is real crocodile? I have been trying to locate the bag but I can only find it in snakeskin.

My favorites were the Chanel boys and Chanel No5 bag

I would not be able to contain myself if I saw that Himalayan croc birkin in real life!!! That is one jaw-droppingly beautiful bag!!! Once again Vlad, you’ve made my day with these photos!

WOW!

The Vuitton Chain Louise bag is $2450, not $2150

The lady carrying the birkin is Majorie Harvey. Steve Harvey’s wife.

Another feast for the eyes to start my day. Thank you, guys!!!!!

That is odd given that steve harvey gets on people for wasting money,
and his wife would not be able to afford on her own. Not sure if she
purchased or got loaner for shock value. 175,000 could get her hairline
in shape, that would be the smarter purchase in my opinion.

I like the michael kors bag, is for the fall season 2014 or what season was it?

I love the shoes with the Skull & Crossbones !

I just came across this blog for the first time. I have to say I am quite disgusted, the amount of abuse and murder that goes into a vast majority of these bags is unfathomable. I say some of the bags because there are some that are faux leather, plastics, other non-animal materials. The last photo is the worst, Majorie Harvey and her awful fur coat. She pretends to be such a kind person while on Steve’s show. In fact, I am shocked that he thinks that it’s okay. My mom, one of his biggest fans, is going to be devastated when she sees that photo. The number of mink that had to be skinned alive for that ugly coat is somewhere around 100. That goes for her friend as well. So 200 total had to die for that trash.

The Birkin bag contains enough horrific abuse; it will keep you awake at night. I have seen what they do these beautiful alligators. That are on the farms owned, co-owned or hired by Hermes for the skins. Alligators are cut open alive to get the skin for the Birkin bag as well as other bags using alligator. Why do they cut them open alive? Hermes doesn’t want the skin damaged in any way; they want a complete unaltered skin. The Gator stays alive and active for awhile after being cut open; flapping around in pain. There are plenty of videos online where you can witness this cruelty first hand. Then there is real leather. It can come from any animal, newborn goats, sheep, pigs, cows, calves, horses, etc. No animal is safe from it. You will always hear oh well leather is just a byproduct of slaughter houses. While that may be true for some leathers. Others are not, but the slaughter houses will give you nightmares, so bad that not even Stephen King could come up with what happens to the animals behind closed doors. They are ‘supposed’ to be stunned, which means to make them unconscious, strung up by one leg upside down and then the butchering begins. Of course, the animals HAVE to be alive during the process. Why? Because it is the only way to drain the blood. The heart must still be beating. Many are not hit with the captive bolt gun and are still fully conscious during the butchering. They scream, as their limbs are cut off and their guts ripped out.

No leather or fur coat is humane. There is no such thing as humane murder. http://humanemyth.org

The great thing I have seen lately is the large number of bag makers, shoe makers and belt makers that are no longer using leather at all. It is entirely all man-made materials. Even automakers are cutting leather out by replacing with a faux leather, such as Toyota. They do not sell any leather. It sure feels and looks like it, but without the cruelty. It can take up to 10 cows, to upholster seats in an automobile.

Real leather, is never pretty nor is real fur unless it is still on the original owner. When I see anyone with a Birkin bag, I want to vomit, even Coach, Dooney & Burke, Michael Kors, Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, etc. Just gross and they stink.

The best bags that I have found is the Matt n Nat designer bags and Kipling. Kipling is an excellent casual bag. They are fantastic, look fabulous and have new styles all the time. I also love Stella McCartney, Gunas, Susan Nicole and well any handbag that doesn’t come from a dead animal. There is an overwhelming number of high-end vegan handbag designers, which are making a large splash in the handbag and accessories industry today. Other than those mentioned previously, they include:
Crystalyn Kae
Cykochik
Jill Milan
Angela Roi
Lulus
Urban Expressions
Melie Bianco
Sole Society
The list goes on. Talk about those bags, how superb they are and not focus on death. Do the research yourself. See what happens. That bag or coat just didn’t show up on the shelves all by itself.
Feel good about yourself, go cruelty-free. Know that you didn’t contribute to the suffering of an animal for fashion.
Fur and carrying around a dead animal bag is no longer in style. People are silly and pay for a name, to show stature. To begin with fur has always made people look fat, and leather makes then stink, look ridiculous and tells everyone they are heartless; Without speaking a word.
