Jessica Alba shows off new Coach!


As reported by The Bag Lady, little Miss Sexy sported a new and gorgeous Coach bag at the Kid’s Choice Awards. Jessica Alba showed up at the awards toting the new Coach Daphne Straw Top Handle Bag. Apparently Hollywood’s sexy A-lister saw beauty in this new tote which shows off imported straw with python, suede, leather and canvas trim. While it seems like this list of trims might be over-powering, Coach has a way of adding subtle details to make this bag anything but subtle. On the inside there is a zip pocket, multi-purpose pocket, and satin lining. Like I mentioned before, with all the different trims and textures, the outside is the focus of the bag. On the outside there are also two front pockets with turnlock closures and two side pockets also with turnlock closures. The bag measures 12 (L) x 9 (H) x 4 1/2 (W). Take a cue from Jessica Alba and buy this beauty for $698 via Coach.

Chloe Medium Gladys Tote



The people at Chloe need to realize that their bags have all made their way into my heart. My heart goes pitter-patter and my wallet becomes a bit lighter. The Chloe Medium Gladys Tote presents itself as a subdued beauty with bright colors and zipped compartments for usability. While pictures do not usually portray the texture of the bag, this picture shows the bags’ supple olive leather. I can imagine the leather to feel divine by the looks of it. The color of the leather is called olive, but upon first glance this bag looked more like gold and silver leather. Either way, the style is what gets me- the color I can work with. The tote is accented with silver metal hardware and there is an ID tag on the side. There is something about lots of compartments that is appealing to me, even though I typically don’t use them. This bag has four front zip compartments for you to play around with. Overall, the tote measures 10 1/2″H x 15″W x 5 3/4″D. If someone from Chloe realizes how much I love their bags, they are more than welcome to send me a ’sample’- it would be put to great use


. Buy this bag via Bergdorf Goodman for $1800.
