Fendi Sequined Forever Boston Bag

Fendi Sequined Forever Boston Bag
It seems to me that Fendi has been getting a bit more colorful lately. And when I say colorful, I mean a rainbow of pastels! In fact, just prior to me writing this post, my fellow blogger Deysa wrote about another rather colorful Fendi bag. This new pastel trend that’s going on is sort of out of character for Fendi. When they do color, it usually consists of brights (with the except of some pale pink bags here and there). I’m not saying that this is necessarily a bad thing. In fact, sometimes it’s nice when designers explore things that lie outside their normal realm.

Now speaking of colorful Fendi’s, here we have an interesting-looking bag that is definitely pastel! It’s called the Fendi Sequined Forever Boston Bag. To tell you the truth, I think the bag is kinda cute. The only problem is that it is definitely not something you could wear every day. And given the fact that this bag is rather small and chocked-full of sequins, it almost looks like an evening bag. What I find most interesting about this bag the signature canvas that lies beneath the layer of sequins. When you look at the bag straight-on, you can’t see the pattern. However, when you look at the bag from an angle, those familiar little F’s magically appear. Cool effect, huh?
Fendi Sequined Forever Boston Purse
The Fendi Sequined Forever Boston Bag is available in Pink or Yellow. It measures 9.5″ x 7″ x 6″ and features an adorable padlock that secures the zipper. Find it at FORZIERI, where it retails for $820.

Michael Kors Jamesport Bag

Michael Kors Jamesport Bag
Michael Kors has been releasing some beautiful bags lately that are making me drool! One of the stunning handbags is the MICHAEL Michael Kors Jamesport Large Shoulder Tote and it is absolutely gorgeous. The tote comes in two different colors: Black and Walnut (tan), but black is my all time favorite of the two. The black version, in my opinion, is much more versatile than the walnut version. Black handbags can be worn either day or night, and definitely match more accessories and clothing than a walnut handbag. The walnut version is very beautiful, but unless you have things that can match it properly, it will probably sit in your closet a majority of the time.

Some of the details of the handbag include a: magnetic snap closure; shoulder strap; interior pockets; and logo-print lining. It does look as if Michael Kors got his inspiration for this bag from the Foley + Corinna city bags. No it doesn’t look exactly like the city bags, but it does look like a more classy and stylish version of the coveted Foley + Corinna bag.

The MICHAEL Michael Kors Jamesport Large Shoulder Tote can be purchased at Nordstrom for $368. I think $368 is a great price for this handbag! The handbag is gorgeous, versatile, and looks fashionable! This is one of those handbags that is worth the price, because it looks as if it cost much more than the price tag says!

L.A.M.B. Signature Alchemy Satchel

L.A.M.B. Signature Graffiti Satchel
If you love L.A.M.B. as well as the Louis Vuitton Speedy then you are in for a treat! L.A.M.B. has came out with a handbag that has L.A.M.B. written all over it, but yet resembles a Louis Vuitton Speedy!

The handbag is full of black, gray, and white so you are limited of what you can wear this bag with. Unless you are wearing dark colors, you might want to stay away from this bag. Also, even though the handbag is full of great colors, I would only consider this a day bag. Call me crazy, but with the colors, style, and structure of the bag it just seems more appropriate as a day bag versus a night bag.

Some details of the L.A.M.B. Signature Top Zip Satchel include: a top zip closure; interior pockets; PVC with leather trim; and golden hardware. The handbag is complete with a golden logo plate on the exterior of the bag with “L.A.M.B.” inscribed on it.

The L.A.M.B. Signature Top Zip Satchel can be purchased at Nordstrom for $395. I can’t decide if the price is worth it or not but if you compare it to a lot of high fashion purses out there, this bag is a steal! This would definitely be a cute bag to add to any handbag collection!

Juicy Couture Day Dreamer Floral Tote

Juicy Couture Day Dreamer Floral Tote
Juicy Couture wants to keep its fans to the minute with the latest trendy handbags your Couture bucks can buy. Check out the latest tote bag to hit the Velour section, the Day Dreamer Floral Tote. Yes, most Day Dreamers do sport flowery charms and trinkets, but this Day Dreamer has a slightly different aspect. This tote sports a bohemian chic look that would compliment any casual day summer look. I’d never been one to turn down black velour and the fact that the overall color is black is a plus in my book. Looking further into the details, I’m really digging the double braided leather handles; they fit in with the theme, perfectly. Multicolor floral embroidering and a discreet embroidering among the flower stems read Juicy. Crowns, butterflies, a leather tassel, and a giant flower charm all found among the clutter as well.

This would make the perfect bag for girls of all ages. The fashion staff over at Net-A-Porter prove this with their mannequin, as you don’t necessarily have to be in your teens to rock this tote! If you seek to add another Day Dreamer to your collection, shop Juicy Couture goods and accessories over at: Juicy Couture Room @ NET-A-PORTER.COM
