Kooba Sexy Lexi

Made of a metallic silvery leather, this purse comes with a detachable shoulder strap and secure zip-top closure.

The best thing about this bag has got to be the 23-inch drop – it’s so gloriously swingy and boho chic, perfect for both day and night time use.

Violent Acres and Louis Vuitton

One of ArmCandyGirl’s favourite bloggers out there is the irrepressible Violent Acres, a brilliantly funny writer with a life story that rivals the most controversial of celebrity memoirs.

Why do we love VA so much? Well, there are many reasons, the most important being that she is smart, savvy, sarcastic, and (we strongly suspect) hot as hell.

So! Without further adieu, ArmCandyGirl would like to present the Perfect Purse for Violent Acres. We give you:

The Damier Azur Berkeley frlv-damier-berkeley.jpgom Louis Vuitton!

Now why this purse, we hear you ask?

Well for starters, it has exquisite craftsmenship. VA comes across as a lady who appreciates the finer things in life, so that’s quite important.

Then there’s the fact that, despite it being a Louis Vuitton purse, it isn’t slathered in obnoxious LV signs – VA doesn’t care if you know she’s carrying a $1,500 purse because she doesn’t give a flying monkey what you think (a sentiment she has made patently clear thus far with her ‘no comments allowed’ policy).

And then there’s the fact that the purse is just the right size for our heroine to tote around all day without getting too tired, but still large enough to use as a weapon (beware, mommy bloggers!) .

Finally, we think Violent Acres and the Damier Berkeley would be perfect for each other because, much like Violent Acres herself, this purse is oh-so sweet, classy and pretty in the edgiest of ways.

Violent Acres + Louis Vuitton = a match made in fashion heaven!

Gucci Holidays!

gucci-aviatrix.jpgGood old Gucci – just when we think the Fall collections might be a little too similar in style and appearance, along comes Gucci with its slightly odd creations, reminding us that there is always choice!

This particular little offering is the Gucci Aviatrix Medium Boston, a lovely boston bag made with leather trim and sand GG fabric.

The metal Gucci crest will delight the discerning purse collector, and the colours are wonderfully Holiday-appropriate.
Perfect for a Christmas gift!

Fall Dentelle

monogram-dentelle.jpgThe Speedy from Louis Vuitton is an old favorite, which is why this new play on a classic design is so very lovely.

Called the Monogram Dentelle Speedy 30, this monogram canvas purse with caramel trim is a wonderful go-to bag for everyday use.

Brass hardware and rolled leather handles finish off this comfy, roomy purse – and the icing on the cake is the gorgeous lurex embroidery, made of real lace for that extra touch of luxury.

One for the Christmas list!

Called the B. Fendi Pleated Gold Shoulder Bag, this coated leather purse has a wonderfully retro look to it.

Lovely Lovely Luz

marc-jacobs-luz.jpgThis beautifully radiant bag is the Lovely Luz from Marc Jacobs, a lovely soft grained leather purse with silver hardware and textile lining.

White purses in wintertime are so very Winter Wonderland, and this bag is no exception – the creaminess of the leather over, say, suede, is perfect because it’s so much easier to clean if it’s rained on or gets mud-splattered (or, heaven forbid, red wine).

We like!

Business Vuitton

Wondering what to louis-vuitton-taiga-alexander.jpgget your dad/brother/son/husband/boyfriend for Christmas? Look no further than the Taiga Alexander from Louis Vuitton.

This gorgeously crafted suitcase/laptop bag/superexecutivepowercase is made of beautifully soft calf leather with silver hardware and leather trimming.

As far as actual storage is concerned, it doesn’t get any better than this double-zipped glory of a bag – there are more than enough compartments for not just your laptop and laptop accessories, but papers, phones, whatever business-like things you could possibly imagine.

Business has never been this sexy!

sudie-convertible.jpgThis ballsy little bag is the Sudie Convertible from Tanner Krolle, a grained leather purse with silver hardware.

This is the perfect shoulder bag – because it cinches so tight, the purse feels wonderfully safe and secure under your arm.

Rolled leather handles, suede lining and a magnetic closure make this a wonderful little bag!
