Purse Deal: CHANEL Leather Hard Case Bag
For browsing authentic Chanel at a discounted price via the Internet, I always rely on Bluefly (dot com). I am more likely to find some nice Chanel stuff, but never something that is a Must Have. Take for example, the Black Leather Hard Case Bag. Its name says it all, literally. I remember when I made my last purchase of Chanel sunglasses, the case looked fairly identical to this piece. Hard case, roundish design, silver logo rivets at the sides, yep, pretty much similar. I love stiff cases as much as I love my sunnies, but I don’t think I love them enough to wear the whole concept as a handbag. If you do like this piece or seek to give it a try, you’re sure of two things. One, it’s an incredibly unique design and you probably won’t run into someone else carrying your bag, and Two, you’re essentials will cared for in full protection mode, worry free! More details include, a push-lock closure, three interior compartments, and a detachable metal linked shoulder chain, as if the bag itself wasn’t bad already. Any of you ladies fans of this Chanel, you can find this piece carrying an incredible $1,800 price tag, already marked down 20%!

Louis Vuitton Travel Shopper Rider
I usually love any handbag that is in Pink. It can be any shape, size, and by any designer I will love it. Today, I’m not loving a certain Pink handbag and this particular handbag is actually by my ultimate favorite handbag designer. The handbag I am referring to is the Louis Vuitton Travel Shopper Rider, and I am not loving it at all. Louis Vuitton has been credited to making many beautiful and fabulous handbags but the Travel Shopper Rider looks like a walking advertisement with a hefty price. All the Travel Shopper Rider is, is a shoulder bag with “Louis Vuitton” and various Louis Vuitton locations imprinted on the bag in bold letters. What is even worse about this handbag is the price! For a handbag that is used for nothing but showing you wear a designer handbag and advertising for them it is quite expensive. Not only are you not getting paid to advertise a not so beautiful handbag, but you are paying $1,940 for it! If you have the extra cash to spare, I suppose the Louis Vuitton Travel Shopper Rider would be a lovely handbag to add to your collection. But if you want to splurge on a Louis Vuitton handbag that won’t be available for long, I would say the Travel Shopper Rider isn’t the best choice of handbags to pick.

Kooba Brady Tote
Guess what girls! I’m stuck on Kooba… again! This time around my eyes have landed on this gorgeous Kooba Brady Tote. I’m not quite sure what it is about this bag that I like so much. Is it the pleats? Or the belt? Or the lightweight, buttery soft leather? Who knows, who cares?! I just think this would make a really great bag for carrying around school books or work folders. Perhaps it would make a great bag for shopping at the mall as well. So if you’re looking for a chic, structured tote bag then the Kooba Brady Tote just might be for you. And the best part of all… this bag is now on sale! All the more reason to treat yourself to a lovely new Kooba handbag!

The Kooba Brady Tote is available in Black leather with brushed nickel hardware. This open-top tote measures 13″ x 14″ x 3.5″. It normally retails for $595, but it is currently on sale for only $495!

Katherine Kwei is coming back to hautelook!

Expect up to 70% off the latest leather and snakeskin styles, such as the Teresa, Donna, and Edna collections.

January 6th 2009 is the date, so mark your calendars now.

Katherine Kwei is a newer designer — Spring/Summer 2007 was when she launched her own handbag line. Kwei’s designs aspire to seamlessly blend modernity with tradition by creating her own unique texture by using luxury materials, while always keeping her signature Chinese “Eternity” knot-inspired weave as the main focus. Her goal is to create collections that are outstanding quality and timeless designs - much like the art of Chinese knotting that she learned from her grandmother, that has inspired and been integrated throughout her work.

Before writing this I realize that I may give you all the impression that Vlad and I are nothing other than bumps on logs. Not the case, but I am well aware that it may come off that way. Upon first glance this clutch screams ‘take me with you on new Year’s Eve!!’. And then [...]
