Haute or Not: Maloles Andrea Clutch

Thursday, August 28th, 2008
Have you ever visited the art museum and saw a piece of art (or maybe even a few) that made you question the artist's thinking but you were drawn to it anyway? It's that way sometimes in fashion too - you see a canvas of colors that you just don't get but there's something about it that you still admire. Like this Maloles Andrea Clutch . It screams hideousness but still I can't stop looking at it. How can something so unattractive be so appealing? The color combination is totally off. The mauve suede is pretty but the metallic gold leather and black trim are too harsh against it. The shape is weird - sort of a bow that is depressed in the middle with that 'interesting' two toned flap. The resin turnlock closure is dainty and adorable but the embossed 'Maloles' logo above it seems to throw it off. But despite everything about this clutch being so wrong, it still just feels so right. I really can't explain why I'm so drawn to this clutch but I want it nevertheless. I guess that's the sign of a good artists, or designer in this case. What do you think - do you love it or hate it?

The Shape of Things

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Tired of the same old shapes in handbags? Well, we never get tired of bowlers or frame bags … or hobos … OK, so we don't get tired of any type of handbag. But just because we love the status quo doesn't mean we shouldn't change it up every once in awhile.

The absolute best example of this is our new Urban Expressions Balloon Bag. It is arguable our most unique shape yet, and that is high praise considering how many truly uniquely-shaped bags we offer here at Baghaus.

Katie Holmes

Katie Holmes seems to love baggy jeans, as she has worn this same pair (from a men's line of jeans!) several times recently around New York City. Of course, the rumor is she might be pregnant, thus wearing the baggy jeans to hide a burgeoning bump.
