We use “square” to describe the terminally un-chic or distasteful but, with this new bag from DSquared2, you’ll be right in the mix. This straw and leather bag with a snap button closure, priced at a steep $630, is an ideal item to transition from winter to spring — the color allows you to rock the heftier and deeper winter hues but the fabric and texture make it an easy sell for spring outfits because it’s not heavy! If this appeals
What? Furla Aster Metal Struzzo Satchel Where? Guiltlesspurse Color? Red leather Price? $372.50 (regularly $745) Worth the Spend? Yes! Why? It’s the perfect color red to wear with all black work suit…or to rock with a camel shirtdress on Saturday…or some jeans and white shirt with a tartan plaid wide belt. Versatile, edgy, chic and colorful!!
Vivre has this little eggplant python clutch by Sang A on sale (also in chocolate). The crescent-shaped masterpiece has a folded-over closure anchored with an ebony-toned horn button. Because it’s handmade (of course), it’ll take a few weeks to order so, get on it. ‘Nuff said…
I’m talking about this beautiful large black leather chain handle shoulder bag by Chanel. It’s on sale today (12-5pm only) at Portero. Normally priced at $2,895 which is a relative steal, today between 12pm and 5pm it’s $2,605.

Technically, my birthday was yesterday but, so what — if you’re in Australia, it’s still my birthday. My item of lust is the ultimate bag – the Hermès Birkin bag. Yes, in 1984 actress Jane Birkin started sporting one of these bags and the rage was born…and lives on! This particular bag comes from my favorite pre-owned luxury goods website, Portero and this bag is in excellent condition which means it’s like new! This particular Birkin is 25cm • is finished with Matte
…Or Silverado, as in the Chloe Large Silverado Handbag at Portero for a small penance of $785. Portero is an authenticated market for pre-owned luxury goods (read…used), and of all of the similar sites, Portero is far-and-away the best! Now, remember that my birthday is coming up in less than two weeks so, anyone who is feeling benevolent should feel free to send this my way….it’s in very good condition which means it has very few scratches or markings. I’m
This Roger Vivier leather bag can be had simply by calling Roger Vivier, NYC at 212-861-5371…and shelling out $3,500. A mere pittance to pay for such a wonderful bag with two-tone leather, gold hardware, and the signature square buckle by such a grand designer — or maybe not! For now, let’s just enjoy… .
