Celestina Cracked Mirror Clutch
I’m not much of a tiny-little-clutch fan. I mean, I’ve got a big key ring. It doesn’t always fit. Add my cell phone, and the thing surely won’t close. I’m particularly not a fan of the shiny-tiny-little-clutches. Judith Leiber? No thanks. In a pop culture […]

Finally, a cupcake that is not only fat free, but calorie free as well. Too good to be true, you say? Well, kind of, because tasty as it looks, I wouldn’t recommend eating it.
In “mocha″ or “strawberry″, they′re the latest from the crystal palace of Judith Leiber (do you think Swarovski has a bigger customer?). A tiny swirl of appropriately hued crystals tops a decorative “wrapper”…silver fluted for the mocha, and a pale gold basket weave for the strawberry. I love that they′re youthful, but not juvenile like the Hello Kitty group. And they really brought a smile to my face…even after seeing the $4,295 price tag.
Usually I don’t really go for the Leiber Minaudieres, it’s more my mother’s thing. I may have to suggest she think abut picking up a snack for herself. She’s a good sharer.
Choose your flavor at Judith Leiber.

Who could have anything less than a wonderful new year ringing it in with this spaaaaahkly crystal box from Judith Leiber? Effervescent, like a glass of champagne, turned into solid ice.
$1995 from Judith Leiber.
I′ll be back to regular posting on Wednesday, January 2, 2008.
In the meantime, I would like to wish a happy and safe New Year to all the readers of In My Bag, and thank you for making 2007 such a great year.
Cheers everyone!
Love and handbags,

Finally, you grown women who can’t get enough of Hello Kitty have an excuse for your clinging to the juvenile…Kitty is your peer!
That’s right, Hello Kitty, the iconic Sanrio cat, beloved by school girls and their mothers the world over, is no kitten, she’s 33 years old this month.
In honor of her birthday, designers have created collections featuring the mouthless feline, at prices too serious for the kids.
Take this Judith Leiber minaudiere.
It’s gaudy, it’s cheesy, it looks like a little girl’s dress up purse from Claire’s…but no, it is an $1895 evening purse available from Judith Leiber. For that money, I would have expected it to at least be shaped like Hello Kitty, or a bit more interesting. Astoundingly, it is back-ordered. Smaller, and less expensive, though hardly reasonable (a $300 compact?) are some other Leiber accessories available from Sanrio
On the more reserved side, is this coin purse from Rebecca Minkoff.
Stamped faintly with Hello Kitty’s face, this is the sort of thing that you can carry because you love Hello Kitty, but feel a bit weird letting the world know about it. Lined in a colorful Hello Kitty patterned fabric with bow topped Rs this is something I might buy for my Hello Kitty obsessed friend. It’s $150 from Sanrio where there are also handbags lined in the fabric that have subtle Hello Kitty stamped hardware and nothing else that screams “I want to be 10!”.
Don’t get me wrong, I love hello Kitty too (and Twin Stars, Tuxedo Sam…all the Sanrio cuties), I even have a collection of tiny Kitty notepads…but they were $1.50. I’m not sure I can wrap my mind around spending hundreds on items that look as if they were meant for the under 4 foot set.
Thousands, maybe millions of grown women apparently disagree.
