I'm a bag lady! And I especially love it when my bag is over the top and in your face, like all of these. They're all amazing! I'm in love. =)

If I could have one bag right now, it'd probably be that purple Chloe.

WendyB said...

I like the blue spotted Lanvin but I'd rather have the dress!

Siru said...

Me loves bags! At the moment I'm saving for a Miu Miu. It would be my first designer bag.

Chloe's plum color is so pretty. I want it now!

Now this is the kind of baggage people should tote around! The Matthew Williamson bag is phenomenal, I am in love with his work right now especially his new collaborations with H&M. The Marni green leather clutch is adorable, as is the Bottega Venetta clutch. Of course I am in love with Gucci and Marc Jacobs bags because they are so diverse, but maintain such classic looks.

Susanna-Cole King said...

Oh a handbag post! I've been going a bit crazy buying handbags and tote bags lately...I don't know what's gotten into me, but regardless this post probably won't help me stop! haha. I love clutches especially, the only thing I dislike is sometimes I get tired of clutching them, or wish I could slide them on my shoulder to free up my hand! ;)

Great post, as always! <3

xoxo,
S-C

The Stam will always be my favorite !

Lanvin, Lanvin, LANVIN!!! That is my favorite print of the entire spring season. I'm so happy he even used it in the handbags. Blue leopard print EVERYTHING! Vuitton and MJacobs are ferociously fantastic.

Le sigh!! That is all I can say about these gorgeous handbags. One day I will have the disposable income necessary to literally indulge in a gorgeous designer handbag fetish. Until then, I know CC will provide me with fantasy-fodder :~)
