Snakes on a Frame Cross Body Bag by Marc Jacobs

Screen Shot 2011-11-14 at 5.42.39 AM

Marc Jacobs unleashes its fun, quirky and playful side with this “Snakes on a Frame” cross body bag. But it’s the kind of handbag that people normally wouldn’t be caught wearing. The bag is beautiful and unique, don’t get me wrong. But it has a particular style to it that may be a little bit too much to carry around.

For one thing, it’s so yellow, which in itself is hard to match with just about any type of outfit. It also comes in a shape of sunglasses, and this oddly gives it an edgy vibe. The handbag doesn’t look versatile and will most li

Marc Jacobs Spring 2012 Handbag Collection

Screen Shot 2011-10-28 at 5.54.41 AM

These latest designs from Marc Jacobs present a collection that relies less on flair and more on colors and texture. To some, this looks plain and simple. But I really love what the designer has come up with.

I think these handbags are instant classics. However, these may look as though these designs have been done before, and way more affordable, which really doesn’t justify this collection’s current prices.

Anyway, my favorite from this set is this bag on top, the yellow checkered piece, which I think really fits spring perfectly.

3 Chic Bucket Bags

Screen Shot 2011-09-08 at 7.46.40 AM

Do you love a bucket bag design? It’s the least of my favorite bag shapes because I find that these do not have any structure and that I may end up digging for my things inside it.

But over the years, bucket handbag designs are becoming trendier and trendier. And it’s like every designer has a bucket bag or two in their collection. Bucket bags may not be a popular choice, just yet. But I’ve got a sense that in a couple of years, someone’s going to come up with an IT bag designed as a bucket bag.

For now, though, these selections I think are good enough

Marc Jacobs’ Colorful Resort 2012 Handbag Collection

Screen shot 2011-06-29 at 6.43.37 AM

Marc Jacobs has unveiled his resort collection for 2012 recently. The most distinct element about it is the use of color and here, the designer is never shy about having to use bold colors.

There are some handbags that look perfect for the color blocking trend. Although I have to say, that one in the blue and white motif had me do a double take because it pretty much looked like a child’s bag to me. However, the longer I look at it, the more I’m kind of appreciating the bag’s style. For summer or spring, this would be so ideal.

Spotted: Bag Trend at New York Fashion Week Fall 2011

Screen shot 2011-02-25 at 4.25.49 PM

The New York Fashion Week featuring collections for Fall 2011 ended a few days ago. Here are some notable bags that we’re spotted during the runway show.

While I’m not loving the bags from Marc Jacobs or Donna Karan, I think that they bring a lot of style. Someone who is a fashion maverick can do wonders with is. And I love the basic style of Tory Burch’s bag. It’s cool, trendy, functional and versatile.

Bag Trend: Polka Dotted Prints

Screen shot 2010-12-19 at 7.00.25 AM

In some cultures in the East, wearing of anything with polka dots for the New Year supposedly rings in good luck. Polka dots are shaped like coins or money and this represents abundance. I take inspiration from that belief and search from a few polka dotted bags that would look great when you welcome 2011 with a bang.
