The $2480 Bottega Veneta Handbag the Cat Ruined

Screen Shot 2011-11-22 at 7.23.03 AM

Early this year, Bottega Veneta released a rather odd-looking handbag I’m not sure was designed by a person with the right frame of mind. Take a look at the whole thing:

If not for the really white and clean look, I could’ve sworn this bag was garbage left to be played with by cats believing it was their scratching post.

Bottega Veneta normally does away wit

This fall, jazzing up your wardrobe would be so easy when you accessorize with a snakeskin handbag. Most preferrably the faux kind, snakeskin handbags are classic go-to pieces these days and they can quickly turn an average-looking outfit into something more stylish and fashionable.

Here are three different bags, from high-end to low-end, featuring the trendy snakeskin style:

Victoria by Victoria Beckham

Screen Shot 2011-09-25 at 7.25.57 AM

I’m really becoming more and more impressed with the way Victoria Beckham handles her handbag line. She really does know what she’s doing and has been coming up with impressive pieces that can rival her personal favorite handbag lines the Hermes or Louis Vuitton.

This structed tote bag can give these high end brands a run for the money. The Victoria, by Victoria Beckham, is a simple but very elegant looking handbag that can become an instant classic. The interiors of this handbag is bare or minimalist, but you can see just how roomy it is.

Yves Saint Laurent Chyc Shoulder Bag

Deviating away from all those other handbags that have the buckles on it, like the Proenza Schouler or the Cambridge Satchel, this YSL model is actually a good alternative.

This handbag comes in a compact size, with a clear and simple style. It is done in Ivory, which I think looks really slick, because the handbag also comes in another color (Tan). Here, the Y golden hardware really stood out, but isn’t overpowering its overall look.

Python Mini Miss Wu by Jason Wu

At the relaunch of his website, designer Jason Wu presented these colorful Miss Wu handbags, which is already an iconic item from the designer’s portfolio.

These are the mini versions, however, and they work as a classic cross body handbag. This design comes in basic or primary colors. I really love how the one in cobalt blue stands out. Although on the official site, the blue is actually labeled as violet.

And the satchel hunt continues with the Oryany Misia Large Flap Satchel

Screen shot 2011-04-27 at 10.05.12 AM

This season’s IT bag, the satchel with the belted flaps has made Proenza Schouler such a most coveted handbag and has had a lot of incarnations from brands like Mossimo, Kate Spade and the Cambridge Satchel.

The Oryany Misia Large Flap Satchel joins the fray with this gorgeous bag.

And this is pretty affordable, I mean compared to the other brands, with a price

Why Bottega Veneta, Why?

Screen shot 2011-01-19 at 9.45.51 AM

This classic Veneta handbag, which was released a couple of years ago, still remains a favorite everyday bag by many. It is particularly distinct because of its intrecciato weaving which has already become a trademark for the brand. I personally love the bag for its functionality. The shape and material makes it pretty convenient to put everyday stuff in it. The style is only secondary, however, it does look tasteful and elegant. I wouldn’t think it needed any updating or changing.

Made in begonia or pink patent leather, this Valentino handbag denotes elegance but may also be partnered with a casual outfit. The bag features golden hardware accents and a leather pull that adds a bit of style to it. I love the gathered bow detail on the body.
