Toos Fringed Evening Bag



Well, it is quite nice for me to see that I am not the only person who has technical difficulties when it comes to technology. Apparently, so do the fine people behind BergdorfGoodman.com. While doing my daily search for bags, I ran into a beautiful evening bag. Catching, swanky, and showy I knew I had to write about it. But the picture for the bag is… nothing. It’s a half of a half. Damnit my hopes are down. Doesn’t mean I can’t write about this evening bag- the info stays the same and the picture is from the main page with some writing- but it will suffice.

The Toos Fringed Evening Bag is quite boisterous. I’m not sure if I could wear this bag, but I would sure love to try. Made of olive green silk satin with allover long fringe and a sequined body, this evening bag will make you the eye-candy of the night. The bag also shows off golden hardware and features a top handle with rings (7 4/5″ drop). Also, the framed top style adds a beautiful structured shape along with the faux-jeweled top clasp. On the inside you will find an inside pocket and full silk lining. Hopefully Bergdorf gets this picture straight before the bag comes in stock, which is estimated to be 11/07/2005. You can pre-order the bag if you’d like (luckily there is a picture to go off on the main page), or wait to see some better specs. This outlandish evening bag can be yours via Bergdorf Goodman for $1,475.

Coach Shearling Gallery Tote


You just had to do it, didn’t you Coach? You had to jump on the shearling bandwagon. Well, you are on it- might as well enjoy the ride. I’m going to have to hand it to Coach, because personally, I don’t think they did too bad of a job with this number. I actually really dig it. The Coach Shearling Gallery Tote makes me want to cuddle up next to the fire and sip on my Chai Tea Latte! Yum. Coach explains that “the detailing and design of this tote is reminiscent of bags that were popular among the ski set in the 1960Гў€™s and Гў€Лњ70Гў€™s”. I wasn’t aware of that fact at the time, but I’m just going to believe it. This gallery tote is actually quite chic. The outside shows off two front and side pockets with turnlock closures. Made of lightweight leather with shearling trim, this tote can bring winter fashion to your arm. The bag can be opened with its zip top which unveils fabric lining, a cellphone pocket, and a ring to clip keys or what have you. You can choose between brass/blue or brass/tobacco (my pick is for sure the blue!!) Measuring up at 11 7/8 (L) x 8 7/8 (H) x 4 3/8 (W), Coach is asking $598 for this furry thing.
