Designer Handbags

Ok here is my question of the day: What in the heck gives the people at Coach so much time to make new designs every week?? I would love to have that much time on my hands to just be switching it up and changing it around all the time. Unfortunately I don’t have that much time. Not even close. Between moving out of my place now and getting ready for a month long vacation in Europe, I’m busy as ever. But I did make time for some shopping today (of course I find time for what is really important) and as I passed by the Coach store I saw the new Coach Chelsea BouclГѓ© Demi.

I love fall. This new Coach bag is able to add a touch of refinement to your new fall wardrobe which, by the way, is taking over the stores. A small side rant - why is it that in sweltering 100 degree heat do we have velour, velvet, corduroy, and wool in the stores?? Could that not wait just until it makes it back into the 80’s at least?? Anyhow, the bag is trimmed in leather and features a brass ring closure. There are pockets galore with the inside zip pocket, cell phone/multi-function pocket, and back open pocket. Made of imported wool blend fabric with lightweight suede and leather trim, the bag looks like it is made of tweed and sure as heck is not made to be carried around this summer. The dimensions are 8 7/8 x 5 3/4 x 2 3/8 inches. Even though we are all still frying from this unbearable summer heat, this fall bag is ready at Coach for $228.

When you think about Prada, you probably usually don’t think about it being sport wear. I never did until the first day I walked into my new private school when I was little and saw the kid’s gym shoes were Prada shoes. I had my trusty little Nikes and was a bit confused at what I had been missing out on. Also I never realized Jansport backpacks were also not the norm - try Prada and LV messenger bags. As you can imagine, I felt a bit left out at that time. But now since I am much older and have learned about fashion, I chose not to feel left out anymore. I truly believe the Prada Sport Fur Pocket Bag would make me fit in perfectly fine wherever I may go.

As soon as I spotted this trendy little number from the Prada Sport line I fell in love. I know I may still be a kid at heart, but the Eskimo pattern is just so cute! Made of orange nylon, silver mesh, and faux fur (with the Eskimo pattern), the bag is simply chic. There are removable gray web shoulder straps with seat-belt buckles which add a unique and fun touch to the bag. And of course, like the name says, there are side zip pockets. Where I am a bit baffled is the price. Yes, you are Prada, but give me a break! Those materials are nothing that you could not find at the local craft store but with the name Prada you can’t expect this bag to be anything other than $650 (through Neiman Marcus).
