Designer Handbags

Wow, you don’t see this often. Blink again, and one or two or three more times until you realize that some Chanel products are marked down at Bluefly. This is the best kind of blinking there can be. Although with the price mark downs these bags are still expensive, they may be a little more manageable for you and your finances. I have always yearned for a Chanel handbag, and right now might be the time. There is one of these beauties that is secretly calling my name

And here is the first beauty, the new apple of my eye. The Chanel Beige Canvas Quilted Tote is simply chic and irresistible. There is something about the textured beige canvas exterior that looks so casual but sexy at the same time. Smack dab in the middle of the exterior is the embroidered Chanel (CC) logo. I know the mixture of canvas and leather do not always perfectly mesh, but in this bag I find it the perfect combo. At the sides of the bag there is quilted leather and there is also a leather trimmed net exterior rear pocket. The handles are made of leather and are connected to the bag by silver-toned links. On the inside you will find canvas lining with zip-close side pocket. This tote measures approximately 7½’’ tall x 12½’’ wide x 6′’ base depth. Even though 20% off sounds great, this price still will dent your wallet- but it for $1,400 via Bluefly. And hey, since the deal is so good, you could just toss an extra one in your shopping cart for me!!

If you would like to opt for a classic little beauty, then the Chanel Quilted Leather Small Shoulder Bag may be making its way into your heart as we speak. This would be a classic bag that you could wear from now until whenever you’d like. Who can go wrong with a classic chestnut leather little bag? Um, not me- and not you I don’t think. Made of stylish chestnut colored leather, the streamlined diamond quilting makes this bag that much more desirable. To add a little extra class to the bag the logo on the front is featured in gold-toned metal hardware. The bag opens on top with logo engraved leather pull tag and the shoulder straps connect to the bag with gold-toned links. When you open up this cutie, the inside continues to scream out Chanel with logo lining and dual zip-close side pockets. Sizing up approximately 11 ВЅ’’ wide x 6 ВЅ’’ tall x 4′’ base depth, this small bag may perfectly grace your body. You save 20% on this bag, which still equates to a somewhat large price tag; buy it through Bluefly for $1080.

Do you know how some things remind you of something they are not? For some reason, this bag reminds me of golf. Yea, I know- I don’t get it either. I really don’t get it at all. But, I’m going to go with it. The Chanel Green ‘5′ Canvas Medium Tote is made of a white, green, beige, silver, and spring green canvas exterior with leather piping and quilted detailing. Doesn’t it just look like you would take it to the club house? Straying away from a very classic elegant look, this Chanel bag adds a little flame to the Chanel fire with its ‘5′ leather patch on circular exterior front pocket. The shoulder straps are intricately designed with silver toned chain straps that have canvas woven into them. The inside of the bag is lined in logo jacquard lining and has a zipper pocket. This tote is 11 ВЅ’’ wide x 8′’ tall x 6′’ base depth, and I sure wouldn’t mind taking it to the country club. Buy it via Bluefly for $972.

Sometimes I want a slouchy bag to offset and outfit, but some days a structured shape is what I’d like. If you are into the structure, into flowers, and into Dior, then you may be into the Dior Embroidered Flowers Frame Bag. And again, I was tipped off by Noriko to have this lovely bag added to Viewer’s Choice Monday! The structured body of this bag is assembled from supple white leather and adorned with pastel floral embroidery. The topstitching is intricately woven in zigzags along the frame. The polished silver metal hardware only helps this gleaming white beauty shine a little more. The leather handles show off C and D links. On the inside you will find a zipped pocket and Dior Logo textile lining. I like the feel of this bag. I’m not quite sure it could be pulled off everyday of the week/month/year (yup, you’d be a fashion don’t even though it is a Dior), but if you need a white bag for spring, this bag should make it onto your wish-list. I have a wish-list that is completely too long and completely unrealistic, but I could see this bag making its way onto the list. The bag measures 12″ x 6″ x 5″ and can be purchased through eLuxury also for $1725.

The Dior saddle bags have been quite the hit. The styles and materials very so much, that if you like the shape of the bag you are almost guaranteed to like a design at some point. And for this Viewer’s Choice Monday, one of our leading ladies on the forum, Noriko, has set her sights on the Dior Japanese Patchwork Saddle Bag. For the saddle bags, this is definitely one of my favorites. It reminds me of the beautiful beaches that I grew up by, rather than the snow and grey skies up north. The Japanese-inspired blossoms bloom is laid out over a landscape of pure white canvas which is trimmed with caramel leather. Between the floral print and the creamy leather trim, this bag just kind of makes you want to smile. Showing off a little glam, there are the signature silver metal hardware C and D charms with the leather shoulder strap. The large silver metal D charm dangling from flap gives way to the flap closure. Inside you will find fine logo jacquard canvas lining and a zipper pocket. The saddle sizes up at 9.5″ x 7.5″ x 2.5″, and can easily be dressed up or dressed down. If you have been looking for a flirty floral saddle, then grab this Christian Dior Handbag through eLuxury for $1,080.
