Adriana Castro Modish Clutch

Adriana Castro Modish Clutch
One of our new favorite designers here, who lives just down the street, is Adriana Castro. We recently reviewed her Vibora clutch and you all loved it. And while I loved that clutch, there is a different clutch from this Colombian beauty that I adore even more, the Adriana Castro Modish Clutch. […]

Sang A River Tote in African Crocodile

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Today I got an email with a complaint about us covering Gossip Girl on Purse Blog. Ok, I see your point. This is a handbag website and covering a TV show that is not about handbags may seem a bit off topic. But you must give it to Gossip Girl for having some of the […]

Nuti Ostrich Frame Clutch
So this handbag has it all for me. Exotic skin, grey color, and a clutch. Right there are three things that I absolutely adore in a handbag, and this baby has it all! We have covered bags by Nuti before, and really, from quite some time back I have been a fan. […]

Gold Lizard Allegra Tote by Vivre

Friday, September 5th, 2008

If you haven’t checked it out yet, make sure to sign up now for our giveaway sponsored by Vivre this month! Vivre is not your ordinary online e-boutique. Not just handbags, not just some clothing, not just some accessories, but there are the most stunning home goods. In fact, part of my weekend regimen is to sit in front of the TV and go into my dream world; where money is no object and I can buy anything I want for my dream home. Vivre is one of the first stops in this dream of mine, as they have the most stunning and interesting pieces.

Something else they have is their own line of products, including handbags. One of their signature bags, that they design in an array of materials and colors, is their Allegra Tote. The version that has my attention right now is the Gold Lizard Allegra Tote by Vivre. This tote is perfect for a few reasons. First of all, when I look for a metallic I can never opt for a large tote. Too much color on too large a space. But this slim carryall is different. It is slim enough that it is does not attract too much attention or cause too much blingage (yes, I made that word up). I love the metallic gold on the lizard skin, it just pops! There is soft suede lining and an interior pocket. Dimensions are 14 1/2″ x 11. Other major perk, the price. Buy through Vivre for $52

Anya Hindmarch Burton Python Clutch
So what if my sister and I are clutch obsessed? I really am just handbag obsessed across the board, which of course is why Purse Blog exists today. You know how there are people that own a warehouse full of cars? I want a closet that is warehouse sized full of […]

Review: Gerard Darel 24h Utah Python Bag

Monday, August 11th, 2008

The new kid on the handbag block is fitting in perfectly, being highly sought after and not as widely available in the US as we (by that I mostly mean me) would like. Gerard Darel Bags are not new by any means, but their popularity in the US is blowing up. On my last trip […]

Zagliani Medium Python Puffy Bag

Monday, August 11th, 2008

It’s Monday. Again. I don’t know about you, but I seem to always have a case of the Mondays. This being the case, I figured, what better way to ease back into the work week than to drool over this gorgeous Zagliani Python Puffy Bag? I have just recently become interested in exotic bags (thanks […]

Zagliani Python Z Bag

Zagliani Python Z Bag
*Thud*
I think I just passed out.
Or my head exploded.
Or something.
Because, on saks.com under ‘New Arrivals,’ there is a piece of metallic python so resplendent that it makes me wish I hadn’t written about the Zagiani python clutch so recently. Because this? THIS IS WAY BETTER.
It’s still Zagliani silver python. […]

VBH Alligator Compact Clutch

Tuesday, July 15th, 2008

Call me naive, but when I began to truly delve into the world of exotic skin handbags I did not realize the plethora of treatments and finishes used to differentiate one exotic skin from the next. I am the proud owner of an alligator Hermes Kelly Wallet which features a matte finish rather than […]

Bird Handbags Lady

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

I will tell you a secret; to go on vacation and not go online is a real and true vacation. Don’t fool yourself with that laptop that you check only a few times, it takes you over and puts your mind back on work and all things ‘real’. Vlad and I, of course, had both […]
