Salvatore Ferragamo Sartoria Pebble Calfskin Clutch

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

When I think of Ferragamo I think of the absolutely drool-worthy Salvatore Ferragamo Oversized Carlotta Alligator Tote. I dream about that bag. I yearn for that bag. I feel as if I absolutely need that bag. But there is a tiny thing called reality, that sets in and tells me, YOU ARE NUTS! The $35,000 […]

Chloé Elongated Lizard Clutch

It’s Wednesday. What better way to get over the mid-week hump than spending a little time drooling over handbags? While you sit there thinking how your nefarious boss keeps piling up the work while all you want to do is kick back for a minute, fear not, take even just a few minutes with this […]

Alexander McQueen Bubble Tote

Alexander McQueen Bubble Tote
Nothing about this bag does it for me, starting with the hardware. Actually, the hardware is what makes the bag go from whatever to tacky. And the worst part of the hardware on this handbag is where it meets the handles. It all looks and feels so wrong to me on the […]

Give the bag a hand

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

I can’t tell you how many e-mails I receive touting “the best accessory for handbag lovers”, and naturally, I always look, and more often than not, it’s someone else hawking the same old handbag hook we’ve all seen on late night TV (in gold or silver, shiny or matte finish…buy one for every handbag!…).
Yes, it’s a useful idea in theory, but not one I’d use, so I just close the mail and move on.
But…I finally opened one of those e-mails, and found something on the same wavelength, but with a tongue in cheek aspect that appealed to me.
The aptly named, Purse Hand.

Yes, it’s the same idea as all those other purse hooks, but, the Purse Hand does have an aspect most others do not. It can be customized by choosing one of 4 hand/hook colors and pairing it with one of the 40 available tile colors. I’m no mathematician, but that’s a lot of combinations!
The chubby hand (which reminds me of a Middle Eastern hamsa) probably appeals to my superstitious side, as well as my punny inner self.
It’s just cute, and it made me smile, so here, I share it with you.
As I said, it’s not my thing, but for $24.95, I might give it a shot. It’s the perfect price for a gift to give those ladies I know who are tough to buy for, but would definitely make use of a Purse Hand themselves.
Order one of owner Lydia’s favorites, or design your own at The Purse Hand.
