Prada Blue

prada-nylon-cross-body-purse.JPGThe beautiful, vibrant colour of this Prada purse is no doubt the first thing you will notice about it, but is it by no means the only thing to appreciate.

Called the Prada Nylon Cross-Body bag, this irresistable messenger-looking purse is made of blue nylon with gold hardware and a leather trim.

If you love the look of this purse but a cross-body look is just not your thing, fear not - the strap is removable.

So portable, so perfect, so Prada!

Slouchy Jacobs

marc-jacobs-slouchy.jpgIsn’t it great when a purse is both totally low-key and casual yet cutting-edge chic at the same time?

That’s just what this bag is - the Sew Smart Slouchy by Marc Jacobs, a beautifully distressed patchwork denim hobo with brass hardware and a textile lining.

Perfect for both daytime and low-key evening use, this purse is signature Marc Jacobs cool.

Very fashionista!

Prada In the Sun

prada-canata-stampada.jpgSpring time is here and Prada are well aware of the fact, as you can see with this lovely little purse.

Called the Prada Canapa Stampada Frame Bag, it’s a canvas-print purse with ropey handles and a drawstring closure.

Thanks to it’s frame it’s a lot sturdier than most purses, which means that you can knock it about quite a bit - not that you would of course, with a Prada purse!

Beautifully designed, colourful and ever-so-chic, this is the spring/summer daytime purse. Go get your preorder now!

Classy Coach!

coach-ergo-crossbody.JPGIt’s not hard to love Coach when they remember what they are good at and create purses that are so classy and so enticing.

The purse pictured is the Coach Ergo Signature Crossbody, a lovely jacquard-fabric bag with leather trim. Like most Coach purses it comes with plenty of inner pockets to stash your goodies, and the closure is a very practical zip-top which is a comfort, especially in the city.

All-in-all it’s a gorgeous, understated purse for everyday use. The perfect gift!

Prada In Your Face

prada-tessuto-oro.jpgThere can be no doubt in the world that this is a Prada purse, and that the person swinging it carelessly around very much wants it to be noticed. When a purse is pillar-box red, you know it’s the ultimate in fashion attention-seeking.

And this really is a purse well worth noticing - the Tessuto Oro Chain Bag from (of course) Prada.

Made of red (or yellow!) canvas with leather trim, a leather and chain shoulder strap and that fabulously loud logo plate, this is definitely not a purse for the meek and mild!

Deliciously naughty!

Jacob’s Zip It!

marc-jacobs-miss-marc.jpgThis funky little bag is the Miss Marc Tote by Marc Jacobs, a wonderfully practical everyday purse with a definite edge to it.

Made of nylon and cotton, the tote has a magnetic closure so that you don’t have to worry about your things falling all over the place if the bag falls and tips over.

The front of the tote has a cat with a zipper for a mouth - a mouth that is actually another pocket!

Impossible not to love!

Pretty Vuitton

louis-vuitton-speedy-30.jpgThis carry-all is just the most delicious thing in Louis Vuitton’s spring collection.

Called the Monogram Mini Lin Speedy 30, the purse is made of a light canvas, with calf-leather trim and brass hardware.

The rolled leather handles will be kind to your hands if you’re carrying a heavy load in there, and the zip closure will ensure nothing goes in or out that shouldn’t.

It’s a beautiful, classy little delight - and if you get it, be sure to get the Multicolore Pastilles Key Chain too - can you even imagine the purse without that pretty thing hanging from it?

We didn’t think so!

Louis On My Wrist

louis-vuitton-pochette.jpgThis sweet little purse is the Monogram Riveting Accessories Pouchette from Louis Vuitton.

Made with the standard Louis Vuitton monogram canvas and leather trim, the Pouchette has gold hardware and signature stitching.

Design-wise it is a delight, with a very swish looking Louis Vuitton gold placard on the front.

Great for those occasions you don’t necessarily want to be lugging a bigger purse around, or perfect for carrying makeup, this is another lovely little collectible from Louis Vuitton!
