Designer Handbags

When I first laid eyes on the Gucci Baby Carrier, I was a fan but still a tad skeptical. It did seem a bit over the top. But now that I saw the proud new mommie, Gwen Stefani, carrying her adorable little Kingston in one, I am in love! ($790 via Gucci)

And by the way, before you start complaining about us covering celebrities without bags, I insist that you can see 1/34th of Gwyneth’s bag in the picture above. Now that I’ve preemtively shut up the haters, I gotta say that her son Moses is absolutely adorable.

While the designer is well known, this bag is actually not one of my favorites at all. The Fendi Large Leather Bucket Bag is a new design by Fendi and already out of stock. Why is it out of stock?? It is definitely not my thing. Actually, the bag reminds me of an Easter basket that you would carry around. This bag is made with supple black leather and is trimmed with soft-grained brown and metallic gold leather. Other features of this handbag include top stitching, aged brass hardware, black leather knobs, a twisted leather handle, drawstring closure, and fine textile lining. The whole bucket effect paired with the drawstring closure makes my brain automatically think of a beach bag or a gym bag- which I am sure Fendi did not have in mind. Either way, the bag measures 17″ H x 32″ (perimeter)” x 10″ (at base) and is available (when in stock) via eLuxury for $1640.
