Christian Louboutin Pillow Clutch

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Oh Christian Louboutin how you intrigue me, time and time again. We’ve had countless mini-debates about what we think about CL handbags. For the most part the feedback I get is that CL shoes are totally amazing while CL handbags, although sometimes amazing, are always a bit overpriced. I can’t say I disagree.

Christian Louboutin Pillow Clutch

I came across the Christian Louboutin Pillow Clutch and once again found myself kinda wanting it to be mine. The clutch seems so disco-fab, don’t you think? The clutch is comprised of gold metallic leather, pleating throughout, zip detailing, a gold chain shoulder strap (that I actually might use) and of course, the signature red satin lining. Sure, it will set you back a bit, but it might just be worth it! Buy through Net-a-Porter for $1295.

Buzz Worthy: Lockheart Bags

Lockheart Bags

Purse Forum has been buzzing about Lockheart bags recently and I can see why. Jennifer Tash and Trang Huynh are the founders of Lockheart, whose mantra is “Follow your heart”. The duo first created Isabella Fiore. In 2006 the duo started Lockheart, whose bags still make a statement but are more toned down than many Fiore bags. Their bags continue to gain exposure and the fan base continues to grow. Because of this, we are deeming Lockheart Buzz Worthy. Stay tuned for more from Lockheart in the future.

Zac Posen Carine Lock Bag

Unless it’s a giant tote bag, I usually stay clear from the shoulder bag section. A normal sized bag never really does much for my obsession of carrying my house and more everywhere I go.

Looking extra attractive is the Carine Lock bag by Zac Posen, a cute bag that I ran into at my local Saks today. It’s such an adorable piece, starting with the pretty fuchsia hue. I admire rich leather sporting bold color, and this bag has it. Up close or in person you would see how distressed and glazed the leather really is on this bag. The next eye catching detail is the gunmetal gem found right up front, it’s actually just a squared décor but from a distance, it looks jewel like. The lock detail up front doubles as a magnetic snap closure, which always serves for quick access to your essentials. A 10” single shoulder strap, divided interior, and patch pockets are also found on the Carine. Measuring in at 11” x 15” x 4” this isn’t exactly small, as it would make a great night out or party shoulder bag.

L.A.M.B. Ceylon Pickwick Satchel

L.A.M.B. Ceylon Pickwick Satchel
L.A.M.B. has just come out with the Ceylon Pickwick handbag, and it’s fabulous! I consider it a handbag, but it was a made to be a traveling bag to carry your clothes, shoes, and the rest of your essentials.

The handbag comes with two handles and a long shoulder strap. If you are going to use this bag as a handbag I would suggest the best way to carry it is by the double handles. The shoulder strap is very long, and would best be used if you decide to use the bag as a travel bag.

I must say though, the L.A.M.B. Ceylon Pickwick bag does make a stylish travel bag. Every time I’m in an airport, it’s very rare you see a person with a fashionable carry on or suitcase. A majority of the travel bags used by the general public are very bland, and definitely not stylish.

The bag is made of genuine leather and has a front exterior flap pocket. Being that the handbag is made of leather, you can be sure it’s durable especially for a travel bag that get’s tossed around a lot. Other details of the bag include: studded accents; a top zip closure; interior lining; and interior pockets.

You can purchase the L.A.M.B. Ceylon Pickwick at Zapppos for $595. Whether you decide to use it as a handbag or travel bag, the price tag is actually great! It’s not very often you can find a versatile designer bag for such a great price!
